“....As NYC will soon discover, training is cheaper than judgements.
Conclusion: NYPD has inadequate hand gun training....”
*******************************************************************
BINGO -— I don’t think folks here are directing their comments toward the cops so much as they are toward the (evidently) inadequate training. I know that good, continuous and REALISTIC hand gun fighting training is not cheap, but, as GladesGuru points out, “penny wise, pound foolish”.
I think that many concealed carry “civilians” are better trained in gun fighting than many cops. I don’t blame the individual cops for that; it’s an institutional thing. Several cops I know do such training off-duty and at their own expense. They are very good cops indeed.
Concur.
It is the duty of EVERY armed individual to adhere to that standard.
