I dont know the history in Chatanooga very well, but about 15 years ago in Dallas, LEOs were getting shot at an alarming rate, including one of my cousins. At the time they were still using .357 revolvers. My cousins backup (2 officers) cornered the shooter and in the ensuing firefight the shooter was shot 18 times. There wasnt another police shooting for a few years.
as was stated, in the end the cops went home. Justified, I think legally yes, abuse not hardly. Still not buying all the items in the paper, they just dont add up. As to the people that said they heard him say that, the police camera/recorders didnt pick it up, and depending on the range they were from the shooter and the LEOs, after hearing 30 or so shots from .45s I question if they heard it or if he was able to say it. Id like to see the dash cams to see the full story if possible.
isnt the song... Dont shoot the piano player?
In that video that young man, Stage Name of Lead Dispenser shows how good some cowboy action shooters can be. Im fast, but he hit everything lol He is shooting .38spl that are reloaded at minimal power, I shoot .44mag that are somewhat watered down. I need to get back into it, fun sport and good folks.
