You would think after what just happened in Tyler, Texas last week with us losing our State Trooper, that people would be smarter than rush at a State Trooper with a weapon in their hand meaning the State Trooper harm:

Don't bring a knife to a gunfight

Ride like a Vaquero, track like a Commanche, shoot like a Kentuckian, and fight like the devil.

From the article; "The trooper found a passenger, who approached him with a knife, and fired his weapon, she said. "
What the hell kind of sentence is that?"Speed is fine, but accuracy is final" --Bill Jordan

The man should have never pulled the knife out. What a DA!! We should let the officers do their job. Not scrutinize them. Do we need another officer dead? NO!!! Let them take the bad apples away to rot.

Reminds me of a constable shooting we had about 10 years ago.
(Huge fat guy with the kitchen knife)
Last words were:
"You ain't gonna shoot me and I'm gonna cut you".
He was wrong about that.;)Don't try and outweird me, I find weirder things than you in my breakfast burrito.
