I remember in elementary school a cop came over to show something or whatever. Anyways, one of my classmates stood next to him and saw the gun and poked the holster because he didn't know what it was. The cop elbowed him full blast in the nose.
We were like 6 years old...
Must have accidentally mistaken your classmate for his own child
40%
Or thought the child was a small dog.
Fake as fuck. Cop’s holsters have locks that require more interaction than a plastic Dino grabber can provide.
Yeah, but they never use them, how else are you going to headshot a grandma in her kitchen before your partner reacts?
You could use her kitchen gun.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
Reminder that the partner was rocking "Nordic Runes" and didn't tell him not to murder the lady, he told him his camera was on.
What does that have to do with a retention holster design?
Also, yes, fake story. Mugshot is clipped from a real and very different case.
I agree. I would expect any service holster to at least have some kind of a mechanical lock to prevent theft or an accidental drop of a gun.
I have a cheap plastic holster that requires a button press with your index finger. You can do this while grabbing the handle and starting to pull the gun. When completely pulled out, your finger is then aligned near to the trigger for quick response times. That’s the system I expect a modern police to have. It’s really difficult to take the gun out when you’re not pulling from above from a natural position.
I know the cops in the US have a very bad reputation but this can’t be true.
Like not just cops' but arent most holsters with saftey features built to be difficult for anyone but the wearer to access smoothly?
I'm not an enthusiast or anything and could be wrong, just an impression I've gotten over the years.
Most are actually just two pieces of leather with an optimistic outline of a pistol stamped into one side. No special devices at all.
I'm sure some cops somewhere still do that, but I can't remember the last time I saw a uniformed patrol officer not using some kind of retention holster. Even the old fashion leather holsters had thumbsnaps every time I've seen them for the kind of role.
A duty holster will have a retention lock of some kind, usually a thumblock or button. Thats what you'd expect a uniformed patrol officer to use on a belt kit. A detective or some other LEO that wears more business casual clothes or formal clothes will more likely to have a holster without a retention, but they aren't normally making traffic stops.
Not really worth a deep dive since the story is made up in the first place.

Good thing the cops considered him "the right kind of person" otherwise he'd just be dead.
repeatedly
Just like the fake story gets repeatedly posted.
based
Damnit, Ame
I'm reading plural incidents.
I want to know how many time he successfully dino-lifted a gun and got away with it before he was caught.
If the number is more than zero, well done Mr. Dino-Grabber Suspect, well done!
The number was, in fact, zero. (The story is made up. It circulates around every so often with the same mugshot that came from a real, but very different case.)
Hmmm... The same dino grabbers that can't pick up a stuffed animal?
Fake story. Mugshot is from this case.
I know I'm factchecking a shitpost, but I get the feeling a lot of people would otherwise think this is a real story.
I acknowledged that in the comment.
Judging by other top level comments, it seems many people do indeed simply accept it as something that actually happened.
Yes, from holsters that require special training to simply remove the gun from.
Even if they weren't special holsters, try unsnapping a leather or ballistic snap with a dino toy.
It's just fake funny shit that gets distributed waaay too far because our species has lost all capability to think.

How? I can barely shoot mine with a slinky, maybe he puts silly putty in its mouth for better grip?
