School administrators doing more for public safety than fucking police would.
Great job focusing on the gun (grabbing that arm) and then incapacitation. Lucky this ended this way.
The police wont endanger themselves to save others. They argue in court that they are only there to do paperwork, and that "protect and serve" was just marketing, and was never a promise to do either. Useless bullies. They use their monopoly on the use of force to protect themselves, and thats it.
Its also liability. Doing nothing has been successfully argued in court over and over. If they do things and bad things happen because of it, they can be held liable. I think there are some cops who would definitely jump in there, but i agree that most wouldnt put themselves in that situation.
won’t
I saw one story that alleged a police officer endangered himself to save others. The kind of thing police might want to quantify.
Hmm…
Anyone know if they have tried to quantify how often they put themselves in harm's way? Some starting point for analysis (removing incidents that don’t meet strict criteria), eventually get to a number: “police endanger themselves less than x% of the time”
Each year the U.S. pigs shoot and kill over a thousand people. They always claim, without exception, that those were dangerous situations (for the police).
In reality, of course many of them were not, and the cops just murdered someone because fuck it, but it's impossible to know exactly how often that occurs.
A couple hundred pigs die each year, but they don't break down those numbers. However, reliable data shows that the majority of on-duty deaths are traffic accidents, the majority of those are caused by the pigs themselves, either through carelessness, recklessness, or negligence.
American hero right there. Those families will never forget what he did for them.
Props to this principal. He's got more stones on him than half the cops in America.
no bone spurs on this guy!
The principal should’ve been shot in the head there. Dude’s lucky to be alive.
Edit: I’m not saying he should’ve been killed, but he was lucky that he wasn’t…
You mean "could've " I'd hope
You can use "should" when discussing extreme odds. The gunman had fully turned toward him and had ample time to pull the trigger. To me it looks like the gun had jammed.
The gun was empty when the shooter was tackled too. You can clearly see that it had already fired its last round when it gets knocked out of his hand. So I guess the shooter is just a bad shot.
What's with the kid that just sits on the bench in the lower left? The shooter has already fired multiple times, so that kid had to have known what was going on.
Freezing up can be a reflex sometimes.
Absolutely tragic
Judging by the size of everyone in the video, running for one's life is an absolute last resort.
Props to the principal for the side tackle though. That takes balls.
