Am I hearing this right on the news, one officer with his service pistol took out both of the terrorists in TX who were wearing body armor and armed with "assault rifles"?
You heard it right. The Garland Police rep gave out that information on his 11AM press conference this morning. The cop was a simple traffic cop. He wasn't even SWAT or some special duty cop. Good job dude!!!!
Wow very impressive, I can't imagine a better example of the difference between the gun culture of the US and Texas vs. the pacifistic gun banning culture of places like France.
I heard the same story, but did you see the picture of the mangled remains of the terrorist's car? No 9mm Glock did that. Something aint adding up.
Tacticool goons with their guns and gear are not going to stand much of chance against someone "undergunned" with the proper mindset, training and tactics. A parallel in the music world. If you buy a piece of crap electic guitar and let Eddie Van Halen play it, it will still sound like Eddie. If you are an untalented goon trying to play on a $5,000 guitar like Eddie's, you will sound like crap.
I always do something wrong when I post a pic (from my computer) it is always no bigger than a postage stamp.... - - - Updated - - - aaaaah ok....did look a little messed up to be the result of pistol fire....
Only police officers are good enough to handle a firearm. Everyone is a bumbling idiot that can't lace their shoes in the morning unless the *******s say so.
what the main stream media fails to mention is that the Police officers name was Murphy. Thank you for your cooperation
Well... him and a SWAT team. Edit: See below... actually it was just the cop. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/nat...ility-garland-attack-report-article-1.2210571 Oh wait, another source:
In any case, I'd be embarrassed if I were ISIS and not claim responsibility for this. Two well-equipped guys only manage to shoot some poor guy in the leg. No deaths at all. So now we have two fewer scummy Islamists and no fewer "infidels." Sounds good to me. Guess that's what happens when you mess with Texas.
"Assault weapon" is a stretch. At least one of the bad guys had a Keltec Sub2000. Its a semiauto carbine that fires pistol caliber rounds. Its a deadly weapon, but will not pierce the body armor of police.
If such is the case, then it is questionable as to whether or not the supposed terrorists were wearing body armor, or simply ballistic nylon load-bearing vests.
Yes, but unless new details have been forthcoming we do not know the officer's round loads, we do not know what body area he hit, and we do not know if the terrorists were wearing actual 'bullet proof' chest protection or merely something filled as much with wishful thinking as impact absorbing materials. Insufficient data.
since you won't know what the jihadists are wearing-remember the old adage from Mozambique Two in the body, once in the head, make sure the terrorist is really dead! for most people, if two hits in the chest don't stop the violent action-go for the groin area. easier to hit then the head, and will put a Jihadist down quickly
