Lol...now you’re scared of the homeless.

The conservative’s list of people and things to fear is a mile long.

Not fantasy. The average cop shoots may be fifty rounds a year. People like me shoot thousands of rounds per year.

I have gone through combat and, sniper competitions and I can put one round on target that would take the average cop 12 rounds or more.

And I am only considered an average shooter by competition standards.

I used to go to dynamite shoots in Rifle, Colorado and I detonated a bag of dynamite at 1700 yards range with a Springfield Armory M-21 .308.

Thing is-MOST cops only "train" once a year when they shoot a basic qualifying round. And, sadly, many are just not great shots. Many civilian CCW holders take the responsibility more seriously and shoot regularly. The best shoot competitively and go through hundreds of rounds a week.

But remember-in the eyes of the left-only po-liece should have guns. Like this guy:

These are the ones the GOP thinks should be in schools to protect against armed intruders. Only goes to show the incompetence of both groups.

Don't believe it, try it.

When I have to qualify annually for my retired CCW there is always some old dude that should NOT be on the firing line with us. The last one could not stop pointing his revolver at me (next to him) when reloading. Rangemaster kept saying if he didn't watch where his barrel was pointed he was going to pull him.

Lots of cops are not as trained as we would like to believe.

OP video was nuts!!!
