This really needs to be put in the Armed Citizen column in the NRAs American Rifleman Magazine. Bet those Cops were thinking we need better guns, RPGs and maybe armored patrol cars!!
Exhibit 1 ^^^
And the left wonders why we can not have a rational conversation about guns.
Keep up the great work of showing how ignorant the left is on guns....you're doing a fine job!

Maybe we should legalize RPGs? Make the Police much more polite?

Thanks, but I am quite familiar with the specs on the AK. Lol. I have had a couple, myself. Romanian WASR variants, which are better examples of the breed than others. I got rid of them, though. I'm not fond of the AK as a shooter. Oh, its fun, I guess, but I like more accuracy out of my rifles.
At any rate, if this guy fired 37 rounds, he either changed mags, or was using a 40 rounder. It doesn't seem, to me anyway, that he was actually serious about killing the officers. At that range, even a semblance of aiming his fire, should have resulted in at least a couple hits. . I don't see evidence that this weapon was full auto. Full auto AK fire is VERY distinctive. I highly doubt this was a registered, title 3 piece. To my knowledge, if it were, it would be the first time a legally owned full auto piece has been used in a crime.

Excluding the many automatic weapons used by the government at the Waco massacre and other such occurences.
I did some digging. His AK was semi-auto with a 40 round magazine. He hit both officers. He then paused and yelled "kill me". They complied with his request.
Clearly the cops need RPGs to use on these patriots exercising their 2nd amendment freedoms. To use NRA's own logic, best defense here is a strong enough response. Militants with automatic weapons need to vanish in an explosion. Shock and awe. Best treatment for them.
