If You See An Armed Cop, Run!
NYPD ND Kills Clerk Fleeing Felony | The Truth About Guns
According to nydailynews.com, “An unarmed Bronx bodega worker fleeing a botched armed robbery at his uncle’s store was accidentally shot dead by a police officer early Friday, cops said. While witnesses said Reynaldo Cuevas was killed in a lethal case of mistaken identity, police said his death came after the officer’s gun went off as the two collided outside the store . . . Cuevas was sprinting with his head down when he slammed into the officer, who was standing with his gun drawn, according to [NYPD Deputy Commissioner Paul] Browne. As the two tumbled to the ground, the cop ‘accidentally discharged his firearm’ — inflicting the mortal wound, Browne said.”
If a CCW holder did this, those same cops would toss him in jail for recklessly endangering public safety – and some level of manslaughter, as well.

The circumstances are surely curious:
Getting shot in the back in a face-to-face confrontation is unusual, but then consider who we’re dealing with:
And to complete the keystone kop episode:
The broken femur indicates the cop was not wearing his seat belt (I speak from experience here). So the final tally is: criminals all safe and sound, one civilian killed and others injured, and one cop in serious condition. Who is the real danger to us?
I believe y’all are missing the lesson here.
Guns are bad, mmmmkay? Bitter clingers don’t seem to realize that. What better demonstration of the inherent danger of those vicious bang-sticks than the slaughter of the innocent?
Eggs, omlet…some assembly required.
