I can remember a few situations in my group of acquaintances where somebody would be needing to cut something. Packing tape, a zip tie, duct tape, what have you.
"Anybody got something I can cut this with?" they'd say
"click click click click click" would go the pocketknives of all my friends who carry knives
Cops are trained not to ever pull a gun unless they need to put somebody down. That is the whole point of the gun.
Heh, that went well with your sig.
Also: Would a pocket knife cut a Hot Pocket pretty good? Or is the Hot Pocket always going to be a nasty messy meal intended for people living in trailers?
some of the other things are eat a big burger and also find tupac shakur and take a shit in one of those toilets where the water goes right up to the rim of the bowl
I don't think the cop should have to kill someone in that situation, shoot them in the leg or something.
I mean aren't they trained to have some accuracy and control under pressure?
No, that's stupid. You shoot to kill, aim for center of mass. It's not nearly as easy to shoot to disable someone as video games may have taught you.
I remember watching a police training video once where they were playing Duck Hunt only with bad guys and they basically said they're trained to shoot a guy as long as they're still armed.
Like, they broke it down to, "Ok this guy has a gun so I shot him. Now, he's falling but he still has that gun in his hand so I shot him again. Ok now he's on the ground, but he's propped up kinda and still has that gun in his hand so I shot him again."
This is why I don't like movies where they shoot the villain and then he still has 5 minutes of speech time where he's still obviously armed.
The thing is many people mistakenly view a firearm as a defensive weapon but it doesn't work unless you fucking fire it. Trying to intimidate someone with a firearm you don't intend to fire is incredibly stupid. If you want a weapon you can defend yourself with, grab a baseball bat.

you've never shot a gun before have you?
yes.
but not at somebody thank you.
well then you should know that shooting at anyplace on a given target but the biggest area is pointless. Plus think of a running dude. the legs move really fast, along with the arms. The head is a small target that is probably bobbing up and down. The chest is about the only area that stays in a constant place if someone is charging you - and it's large. Aiming anywhere else could very well endanger bystanders by ricochets.
Pansy. The last time I was attacked by a bear I punched a boulder and a shard broke off that was in the perfect shape of a knife. I wrapped the hilt with its flesh.
I'm tired of hearing that stupid statistic about being more likely to shoot a family member than you are to shoot and intruder. Well, of course I am. But once the potential burglar finds out that I am ready and willing to shoot my own family, what do you think he will imagine that I will do to him?

also illegal
trying to defuse a situation by drawing a firearm is a good way to lose your license and get fined up the ass and maybe go to jail

Rule number one of drawing a gun: Don't draw it unless you are prepared to fire it.

You just gotta know where to look.

that reminds me, I have to kill my neighbor who just asked me if I have ever heard of "two-pack..."
The question remains, Pistol or pocket knife.

Cut 'im up nice 'n good, then give him a phone, and just as he's about to hit call,
"Hey, kid. It's peak hours" and shoot him in the fucking face.
post count is going up too quick to respond in a timely fashion, plus you know...WoW
