Inadequate Gun Training/Inadequate Ammo

Just a thought...For the last 10 years the percentage of misses by NYPD officers was 78%..If the supposedly highly trained NYPD officers seem to miss so often imagine what the percentage of misses an ordinary citizen who must use a handgun in self defense makes...Under the stress of an attack a person may need more than 7 shots to deal with one or more assailants...So the police carry 15 round magazines in their Glock 19s and they need it...Why must a citizen be obliged to be under armed while the police are not..Remember when seconds count the police are only minutes or in the case of mass shootings tens of minutes away...

By the way the number of hits include animal shootings and police suicides which are nearly 100%  So the actual hit ratio is closer to 15%....Just sayin

Obviously the police need a lot more training as do civilians...Now in New York State you have a ceiling on how much ammo you may purchase...This leads to less practice and training for civilians...

 

Most police departments are sorely lacking in adequate training as is most of our military...Imagine if the NYPD could only have 7 rounds in their weapons? Maybe Dialo would have only been hit twice since the officers all emptied their glocks in a matter of seconds...If they only had 7 rounds maybe the enough rounds would have missed him and he would have lived...So perhaps it may be good to go back to revolvers and keep the bad guys safer and the sad accidents from going too far...A few more dead cops is a small price to pay for gun restrictions...SIX for SURE could be the new police motto...Sound good?...It would give them the idea that in some shady way they could pull of their insidious agenda and look like they are looking out for the police...Six for Sure..JPerkins

 Many thanks for sending this...It is eye opening...It is worse than I thought...Sad to me...Hope they never have to fight a real antagonist with a knife close up...Pray for abundant ammo...Pray the enemy never gets close...But like they said...The Army wants to have a way to deal with the enemy less than lethally so I guess that it's OK to put our men in harm's way just a little more for the sake of PC...Scary that the women think this will help them for real...It is near suicide to wrestle with someone with your rifle in close proximity...But what do the old warriors who have really done it know?....I have to stop now....This is better but sad to say it still doesn't cut it...Even the police have to gang up on one person at a time in basic arrests where the suspect is resisting...What do they think an enemy combatant will do?

City says cops had no duty to protect subway hero who subdued killer


Number one...Forget the adage that when seconds count the police are only minutes away...Here the police were right there at the scene and did nothing until it was over and took credit for taking down the bad guy when it was the victim who took down the bad guy...Number two...Having better awareness and fighting technique could have saved the victim from some if not all of his wounds....Not to mention possible cowardice on the part of the officers present...By the officer's own account in court he did not get involved because he was afraid that the man who was actively stabbing the victim might have had a gun.......Simply Amazing...JP

What Does It Take to Become a Master?

Dr. Anders Ericsson states that it takes at least 10 years and or 10,000 hours to become an expert/genius in any field of endeavor...More to become world class...

GC is based on the premise that we all have been practicing subtle movement as well as fast, haphazard, strong, sudden, balanced, concentrated movement all our lives just in order to live...All GC movement is is just general movement with some additional applications....The basic principles are not all that hard to develop...It surely does not take 10 years to become an expert...As far as world class is concerned only testing with pre- set rules can be used to measure a person's comparative ability...Some are born with enough talent to become world class in far shorter time...Since GC is formless by definition then it is beyond the parameters of Dr. Ericsson's postulation...Maybe I discovered/developed a training methodology that is superior to any other....LOL...

Can any of you help me understand this better...I read the book OUTLIERS based on his theory and found it not to fit GC...If you have read it and can prove to me that it is simply a matter of practice for 10,000 hours to become a master then I would enjoy the enlightenment..I have proven many times that it takes far less for some to become incredible just by tapping into their natural ability to move without conscious thought....OUTLIERS also states that it is just practice and a 120 IQ that is necessary to be a genius at anything...I guess anyone can be an Einstein with simple practice for 10 years....LOL

The Problem is Gun Laws--ALL Gun Laws

I am frankly fed up with all of this back-and-forth drivel.

The obvious problem is gun laws. ALL gun laws.

There was a time when everyone could (and many did) carry arms — everywhere and most of the time. THAT is the proper state of affairs.

Not only "teachers", but janitors, receptionists, counsellors, and anyone on the school premises (except young children) should be free to go armed. Period. Just like they should be free to go armed in theaters, on planes, on ships, or ANYWHERE.

Some teachers might wish to carry a handgun, others might not. But some decent human beings in every school would be armed, and that's sufficient to:

a) Deter armed scumbags from going after what they believe to be a "soft" target. —and—

b) Provide a near certainty that any armed lunatic who did make the attempt to murder people in a school would be shot dead either before accomplishing his objective, or at least before completing all of the murders that he had in mind.

Anyone who argues at all with anti-gunners is a well-intentioned but misguided person. Those socialist/liberal creatures DO NOT WANT TO SEE GUNS IN PEOPLE'S HANDS. That's it. They do not care about logic, reason, or facts. Their motive is NOT fighting crime, making the cities safe, or persons being able to defend themselves. THEY WANT PEOPLE CONTROLLED.

When Larry Pratt was "interviewed" by Piers Morgan he absolutely stood out with facts and patient, well-articulated argument. The result? Morgan once again demonstrated what a rude, arrogant, self-important ass he is by attempting not only to shout down Mr. Pratt, but also to insult him. This is the tactic of socialistically-inclined power-mongers and their servants.

DO NOT ARGUE WITH ANTI-GUNNERS (or with socialists of  any ilk).

Piers Morgan will never be deported (as the well-intenioned, and understandably outraged people who signed a petition to have him tossed out of our Country would like to see happen). Why not? Because he touts the party line. This (i.e. Morgan) is precisely what the mainstream wants, feeds on, finances, and encourages.

I cannot help but wonder what is wrong with all of those who, properly, believe in private citizens being armed? Can't they understand that those who do not want private citizens armed simply do not want them armed. They don't care about lower crime rates where citizens are armed; about lives saved because of private citizens being armed; about the incredible almost non-existent violent crime record of armed citizens . . . etc. Nor do they even hear it when people — rightly — speak of how tyrannies demand  a disarmed populace, because you cannot enslave armed citizens.

Just the fact that these power-lusters ignore, distort, pillory, and decry the Second Constitutional Amendment should send the message loud and clear that they are the ENEMIES OF LIBERTY. But, the message just isn't understood, apparently.

Not sure if this is illegal...Many states have banned giving this info out...This was given to our newspaper for publication in 2000...Then supposedly taken down but too late...If someone can get this info through freedom of information act then why not get everyone's car registration information? How about everyone's driving record information? How about just the driver's licenses of folks just cause you may feel like it?....One reason I hate "radical" leftist or fascists…No use for radicals of any sort...Not talking about folks worried about the global warming but why not get the information on what cars folks are driving and if they don't get over 34 mpg maybe they should get put on the internet....How about folks who don't vaccinate their kids...Some folks don't want unvaccinated kids around theirs....etc...Nuts....Scumbags of all kinds don't get the punishment they deserve so there are no consequences when privacy rights are involved...I just had to fill out a new required form at my doctor's office which eventually goes to the government so that they can coordinate my records for me...How helpful of them...asked my mother's maiden name and other information that I never had to fill out for any doctors before...Have no idea what that meant...Only the beginning...1984 late but making it's arrival...Imagine if you or one of your family members needed something to calm their nerves and this becomes public information?...Not too good for getting a job...Or getting a gun...Or maybe they shouldn't be able to drive...Just getting started...
