Question regarding the earlier thread re the M&P and no safety.

I tried to search for the thread and bump it rather than starting a new thread but search isn't working.
The thread was regarding some LE entity thinking about not continuing it's use due to the lack of a safety. I got the full size M&P 9 for Christmas that I'm assuming is the LE version and it has a thumb safety.
I'm confused.
What was that all about?

Don't assume it's an LE and you have the option for safety or not.

LE officers don't want a safety, that's why so many carry Glock. The "trigger safety" is really not a safety at all. You want to be able to unholster and fire ASAP.
Same M&P model w/o a safety.

The report was from the Los Angeles Sheriffs Department Office of Inspector Geberal and is a blatant attempt to shuffle liability onto the gun manufacturer.
FACT - several of their employees Drew and pointed a gun at someone before putting their finger on the trigger and pulling it. The gun performed as designed and fired a projectile which struck the target. Now they want to claim that this is the guns fault because apparently it should know when you mean to shoot and when you don't. Not sure how that would work.
The report is widely available on the web.

Exactly. The guns worked as designed. The officers were just horribly trained and a manual safety will not compensate for bad training.
