too bad citizen carry is banned in kaliforna. the beat officers like it,

Thanks for the ping. More than once an armed citizen has assisted an officer in trouble. Might not have helped here, but it might well have prevented the perp from escaping alive.

Few years back a rancher in New Mexico saw a State Trooper getting his butt whupped by some bad guy and figured he'd watch from afar through a rifle scope on an 30-06 Bolt gun. When the guy got the officers sidearm the rancher punched the bad guy in the chest, center mass, from about 400 meters away. I'll see if I can find the noooooze clipping I kept. Texasproud may know about it as it happened near Road Forks New Mexico on I-10, mid or early 90's I believe.

Stay Safe !
