1979 MG MGB... Man I miss that car I should have never sold it 1992 (I think) Saturn something or other 2001 Galant 2010 Camaro

In this particular case with the video, I am not sure I would have had my gun out to begin with, I would have just approached like a normal traffic stop but... With other cases, you see where I am coming from. Thanks for the reply.

I am sure you dont... well played sir. Brass balls...

Ill CC so we have the best of both worlds!

Let me know when and where and I may join you.

I can see that point of view for sure... But I know that will not happen so...

Ahhhh... I Love Stupid people! How did that e-mail work out?

If you were around for the start of this part of the convo... it had nothing to do with the OP. And yes, I did watch the video...

Oh boy...

An officer will use his vehicle in a last resort especially since you have to have yourself up and looking out the window to see who you are running over while they have a gun pointed at you. Doing that doesnt seem odd to you? You are going to rely on the car to run the person over, when that perp can step to the side and shoot you through the side window... instead of standing outside of the car with your gun pointed back at him? Since when has putting yourself in an enclosed position that is not bullet proof and restricts your movement and abilities to get to your weapons been the best place to hide from bullets? I would rather be outside of the car where if the assailant does shoot at me it has to go through two layers of the car to get to me and I can move to better cover/concealment if necessary.

This is my wife and me in KY.

Yes, the biker is completely exposed. But the officer is supposed to be in the position of advantage at all times. The officer is not at a position of advantage sitting behind the wheel if the perp starts shooting. The biker would be able to move in any direction, including behind the car where the officer has ZERO field of view while crouched behind a dash, thus causing a very unsafe position for the officer. Concur with both... Still....

I would expect nothing less from you...

I looked at that one...

I will do my best to help you understand it since you asked. A bullet can go through a car door, a car windshield, a car window, a bumper and various other things the cop is surrounded by in his patrol car. If, like I stated before, the assailant pulls a gun, the officer sitting in the car has nothing but a windshield between him and a bullet to the chest or head, which just so happen to be the main targets of opportunity when shooting a weapon at someone. Yes, he can duck like you said, but all the assailant has to do now is walk over to the car and shoot through one of the windows, while the officer is still stuck in his vehicle having a difficult time removing his weapon from his holster because it is hard to pull it out while sitting down with a seat belt on. Especially if you are ducking to your right which is causing you to lay on your weapon, unless you are left handed of course. Therefore, if the cop steps out to the side of his car and orders the person to do something, he can then retreat to the rear of the vehicle if necessary where there is a better chance of him getting cover from the possibility of gun fire. This also depends on how far away the cop is from the bike. If he leaves a lot of room, I mean like 8 car lengths, then maybe I can see the officer choosing to use the mic to direct the vehicle operator what to do from the patrol car.

Wow lots of... wonder... um... gre... um... songs for put up here. Ha ha ha. I am thinking of maybe starting with a slow song then like half way or three quarters the way through it body out some fast song and let the dancing begin.

I would like to get an AR15...

Oooooo... good idea. If we were dancing in this...

I concur!

Garth Brooks has a few good choices. And yes, bridal party. ha ha. Thanks for all the songs though.

I really am pretty open minded here. I have thought of everything from Friends in Low Places to a FAST Merengue song. However Dont Stop Believing is looking pretty good. That was my, and the guy I was with, song in Iraq. ha ha ha

Well.... let me scratch that from the top... dang... back to square one.

Ha ha... thanks max...

Ha ha ha ha... if you look back a ways, i already mentioned that this is what I am going to start off with for my song to my wife. ha ha ha

It is tolerable.
