What a story, and you’re right, just having the pistol eliminated the need for warning. What was the final tally vs. the price of a shotshell? Criminals who bring a gun to a break-in are a whole different breed than the usual B&E kids down the block. Did you at least hit the perp?

Have we gone numb ( perhaps wrong word) to these events? More killed than in NYC on Halloween but looks like less coverage this morning. Maybe because not in the U S so not hurt Trump?
Not seem to be. Muslim?

No one started a new topic on this this morning noting 10 dead.

My sad prediction: There will be scores of dead cops in Canada in coming years. They have just telegraphed to all of the miscreants that they won’t shoot first.

What’s with those three nitwits wandering by in the background like they’re window shopping on Fifth Avenue?

He arrested the perp and no one else got hurt. Good outcome for the police.
If he, or someone else, had been harmed, then it would have been a bad choice.
Wasn’t there some stupid cop who got shot because she refused to shoot a perp because he was black or something?

“Or did the officer recognize that it was not a weapon?”

I think so.

A cellphone, or so it’s been reported.

Wow. Now that’s zero situationally awareness! Amazing this clueless trio made it into adulthood.
