Derek Chauvin had over 9 minutes to change his mind, and actions.
He knew he could be injuring Floyd.
He changed nothing.

Here's an idea! Why don't you go to Washington DC. Break a window in the Capital building, and enter that way.
If you're lucky, you'll just get arrested. If you do it with hundreds of other people, you may not be so lucky!
Please, do it! Originally Posted by pfunkdenver

Ashli Babbit’s Killer is a Dangerous Incompetent
By Larry Johnson
Published July 1, 2021 at 3:00pm
A picture is worth a thousand words. So these two pictures tell you two thousand words worth of Ashley Babbit’s. He is demonstrably incompetent.
There are four critical rules for handling any firearm, especially a pistol:
Look at the big picture. This moron has his finger on the trigger and is pointing his gun at other security personnel. He is violating all of the gun rules listed above. Every single one.
- Treat every gun as if it is loaded until you inspect it to ensure there is no ammunition in the chamber.
- Always point the gun in a safe direction (in other words, do not point the gun at anything or anyone you are not prepared to kill or destroy).
- ALWAYS keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to fire.
- Know your target and what is beyond. You do not fire at a target if there is a person or persons behind the target that do not pose a threat.
Making matters worse is what he is doing with his left hand. He is carrying something. When you have the finger of your right hand on the trigger and you are simultaneously using your left hand to grasp or hold something you are likely to cause a sympathetic movement with your trigger finger. The man in the blue shirt is damn fortunate that he was not shot in the back by this clown.
The lack of training discipline this man exhibits is alarming. And the results of this incompetence was the murder of Ashli Babbit. If a cop on the street in any city in America handled a pistol like this he or she would have their gun taken away and be sent back to training. Making matters worse–he took an innocent life.

I’ve never seen a trainer, military or civilian, who trains people to fire one handed.I can believe that!

Here’s the pistol qualification requirements for police officers, the clearly indicate in red that all shooting is done with a two handed grip. https://mpoetc.psp.pa.gov/training/D...n%20Course.pdf
Is that what you called a firearm in the military ... "a gun"?
In the Houston metro area there are not many publicly available firing ranges that allow tactical shooting during normal business hours and some aren't built for it at all. It generally requires ballistic material in a surround environment and a backstop that will contain deflected rounds particularly in the early training rounds.
I can believe that!
BTW: What does a law enforcement officer do with his flashlight when he has to draw his firearm in a night or low light confrontation? Just an academic/rhetorical question. I remember the FBI disaster in Florida decades ago that resulted in multiple agent deaths, because they were essentially executed by some bank robbers they pulled over in a chase after they expended the rounds in their revolvers and were unable to reload and/or fire with ONE HAND after their strong hand/arm was injured from weapons fire.
It wasn't long after that the FBI modified their training .... to one-hand activities .. included reloading ... now they can use magazines that also have to be ejected and replaced with ONE HAND.
That is a primary reason why "concealed handgun" training is wholly inadequate....the other reason is the training doesn't include instinctive/tactical training and experience to a nonthinking and responsive level ... that will minimize response time and maximize thinking time.
Every LE agency in this country has its officers trained to shoot with ONE HAND and they requalify with ONE HAND. If they don't ... they have no business in LE. And the same goes with personal security training. They are also trained with "strong hand" and "weak hand" shooting ... NOT BOTH HANDS SHOOTING. Originally Posted by LexusLover

Departments who have not received approval for an alternate course are required to qualify using the course listed below.A problem with your "research" is that the quote is about "qualification" and it is not a training course. That is what you STATED IN YOUR BULLSHIT.
Can I get a waiver for Act 235 if I am serving or have served in the military?So Pennsylvania doesn't even agree with you.
No. The training for Act 235 is focused on the requirements of this profession in Pennsylvania, so regardless of having received similar training or having similar experience in the military, each applicant must complete the training program to be certified.Can I get a waiver for Act 235 if I have am currently or was previously certified as an armed security officer in another state?
