Just 23 years old and near the start of her life in law enforcement, Toni McBride brimmed with youthful exuberance. A slew of online videos show the Los Angeles Police Department officer blasting away at targets, with prize-winning speed and accuracy, on a gun range in the Simi Valley foothills.
McBride, an officer in LAPD’s Newton Division, fired an array of shotguns, pistols and assault rifles. She cavorted and strutted, sometimes within view of Hollywood glitterati, who used the same firing range to hone the gunplay they would use for movies and TV. When star Keanu Reeves shouted out to her LAPD division in one video, the young cop laughed with delight. “Hey, he knows!” she said, clapping. “Shootin’ Newton!”
But less than two weeks after the posting of that video, McBride’s gun use turned deadly earnest.

Why does it not surprise me the perp had drugs in his system?
ReplyDeleteNope, different situations, different locations. Different female cops. I'm not even sure, that this guy was even as a clear and present danger as the first one, but what do I know?

That’s a different shooting. Still interesting
ReplyDeleteTo believe cops "protect and serve", is like giving yourself a trophy for self-delusion.
ReplyDeleteLaw Enforcement Officers a/k/a organized crime thugs, live for that moment they get to harass, brutalize, or murder someone and get away with it. They don't have delusions about why they took the job, but don't they love to shovel the propaganda by the dump truck load to John Q public.
You have a greater chance of being injured or dying in construction work than law enforcement, but break out the bagpipes and a parade if one dies, and give them a participation medal if one gets hurt. These are the same people who weaponize inbred animals, but will shoot your dog for wagging its tail.
I think you can move to Minneapolis... they are getting rid of what you believe to be the problem, there.
DeleteProperty values are dropping as well, you could set up shop in town really cheap.

Or Portland. You might find some like minded friends there.

Read some of the comments at the LAT. LA is a lost cause.

DeleteThe Bay Area isn't far behind.
Read the LAT comments and wholeheartedly agree. These people (readers) are incapable of critical thought. It's time to shift the plan for the wall to align with the eastern Kalifornia boarder.
DeleteNow, she will be vilified and labeled a racist because she killed this POS. Fuck him eternally. Burn in hell and fuck off. She was doing her fucking job.
ReplyDelete“ she faced off with a man holding a razor box cutter. She fired six shots from her Glock 17, hitting Daniel Hernandez with every round ”
ReplyDeleteOne less POS. Good on her
New York cop would have shot three mags, wounded 12 bystanders, a hotdog vendor and his wagon and hit the perp in one leg after the boolit bounced off the pavement.
DeleteSome wetback was wondering why she had to chut heem six times? Cuz she had six boolits.
I'd pay my own money for video of any of the "a box cutter ain't dangerous" genuii, being filleted by a box cutter wielding assailant.
ReplyDeleteWalk in somebody's shoes, etcetera.
Taran Tactical did one hell of a job. Might have saved her life.
ReplyDeleteMaybe the lesson here is......
ReplyDeleteTake some videos of your 3 gun runs or you day at the range.....
But never, ever, never post them online.

Sorry, Wirecutter. The shooting you posted yesterday was from Eaton County, Michigan and the guy who was shot had stabbed someone at a nearby convenience store because they wanted him to wear a mask. The Deputy saw him and pulled him over with the results you saw.
ReplyDeleteThis was, according to some, the second time the Deputy has had to use her pistol.
I work in the prosecutor's office in a neighboring jurisdiction and Eaton County released the video as soon as possible in order to get ahead of the story.
