Utah Trooper Saved by Vest; Suspect Dead | Officer.com

A Utah cop was working a construction zone traffic direction detail when a drunk thug rolled up next to him. Cop smelled alcohol and got his information...and began to walk off. Thug driver shot cop 3x in back and fled. Chase ensued. Thug smashed into a truck and shot himself to death.

LUCKILY...cops vest saved his life, as happens so often. Liberals love to criticize cops by quoting their favorite "10 Most Dangerous Jobs" list and say "See cop work isn't even dangerous". Yeah...Thankfully cops wear bullet proof vests and have better training to NOT DIE in fights.


Hope you're happy libs. Your long wanted war on cops is underway.

I looked up the Utah laws, the shooter had drug use violations, making him unable to own or carry that gun....

So, no need to license gun owners, no need to register guns, if the police had stopped him and caught him with the gun they could have arrested him on the spot....

[koshergrl]

Yup.

 

[JakeStarkey]

The cop lived. Good deal. The shooter was drunk and, according to 2aguy, should not have had a gun, meaning criminals can get guns.

One, there has always been a war on cops, and as they make the bad ones go away while catching the bad guys, the war will slow down.

Two, the Brady law has resulted in background checks denying more than two million purchases to people who should not have guns. Yes, there are needs to do background checks and license guns; otherwise, the carnage will be far higher.

Yet you sillies want to talk about the exception that proves the rule.

Don't forget, it's also wrong to jail people for drug offenses. Cuz addicts are cool.

 

[2aguy]

So, anti gun extremists out there in radio land........why do we need to license a gun owner if this guy could have been arrested if he had simply been stopped and caught with the gun? He was already a person who could not legally own or carry that gun so he could have been arrested under current law, no licensing needed.

Why do we need to register guns if this guy had been stopped and caught with that gun, since he had previous drug arrests, he could not have owned or carryied that gun and could have been arrested under current law?

No reason to license or register guns....

Oh yeah...considering he used the gun to commit a crime...attempted murder...he could have been arrested for that to, without having to license anyone or register any guns......

Please explain the need to license gun owners or register guns.....

You can't, so you won't even try....

Actually the 2 million number is a lie. The majority of denials due to background checks are of law abiding citizens who latter get the gun, they just have to go through a longer process to clear up the mistake.

And you didn't explain what licensing would do or why it is needed............please, explain.

No...there hasn't always been a war on cops. Random individuals maybe. But this is a collective anti cop movement by the American left wing. They chant for.dead cops. Hold rallies advocating for ambush killings on cops. And it's happening.

Liberals tried to make this happen. And succeeded. These dead officers blood is on the hands of every fucking liberal in this country.

Name one crime where having licensed all gun owners would have stopped the crime.

You can't.

Licensing and registration is what the uninformed people say to sound relevant and smart. The anti gun extremists push licensing and registering guns because they want to eventually ban guns, and in the mean time it gives them a way to trip up law abiding gun owners.

 

[koshergrl]

It doesn't matter. People are finished with the stupidity of progressives. We won't be registering our guns. Or turning them over.

And criminals and mass shooters still get guns because they steal them, get straw purchasers to buy them or smuggle them into the country....background checks mainly catch law abiding citizens, not criminals....

The 2 million number is a lie, since almost all of them were law abiding citizens who had mistakes made against them when they ran the checks....

John Lott's Website: The Problem with Brady Background Checks: Virtually all of those denied purchasing a gun are false positives

If someone is flagged by the NICS system, it is because it appears that they didn’t put down something in their background that disqualified them from buying a gun. Yet, an initial denial does not mean that the individual is actually disqualified from owning a gun. Take the numbers for 2009, the latest year with data available. There were 71,010 initial denials. Of those, only 4,681, or 6.6 percent, were referred to the BATF field offices for further investigation. As a report on these denials by the U.S. Department of Justice indicates, “The remaining denials (66,329 – 93%) did not meet referral guidelines or were overturned after review by Brady Operations or after the FBI received additional information.” The last two of these three categories are clearly false positives. The first might involve false positives, but it is possible that the disqualifying offenses are too old (though there are some prosecutions that involve misdemeanor violations that are four decades old so that isn't too obvious). To put it differently, the initial review didn’t find that these individuals had a record that prevented them from buying a gun. (Numbers for 2010 are available here.)

Still that isn’t the end of the story. Of these 4,681 referrals, over 51 percent, or 2,390 cases, involve “delayed denials,” cases where a check hasn’t even been completed. Of the rest, 2,291 covered cases where initial reviews indicated that the person should have been denied buying a gun. But the government admits that upon further review another 572 of these referrals were found “not [to be] a prohibited person,” leaving about 4,154 cases. That implies an initial false positive rate of roughly 94.2%. And it still doesn’t mean that the government hasn’t made a mistake on the remaining cases. In some cases for example, a person’s criminal record was supposed to be expunged, and it had not been?

Of the cases referred to the BATF field offices there were still a number of false positives. A 2004 sample found out that about 21 percent of these cases were found to be false positives (the percentage is slightly higher if a weighted sample is used).

Up until this point, no discretion about the merits of the case has entered the picture. If a review of the records indicates that someone is a prohibited individual, they are included. But of these 4,154 cases, only 140 cases involving banned individuals trying to purchase guns being referred to prosecutors, just 60 of which involved providing false information when buying a firearm.

Of those 140 cases, prosecutors thought the evidence was strong enough to bring a case only 77 times.

You fail if that is what you got. Every one of those two plus million denials stopped possible gun crimes. The criminals would have had to have gotten the guns illegally: more effort, more expense, more time to think about it.

Thank you for proving my point.

criminals for the most part do not attempt

to go through legal methods to obtain guns

Prevention of folks who should not have guns actually not getting guns is good sense and within the Constitutional guidelines,
