Jefferson Davis. Look up your history again.
And believing everything you read isn't a good thing. Police receive training, and a lot of shooters do to. Neither means they are well trained. That is up to the individual. I was in a class where someone who barely spoke English was there and had never fired a gun before (CCW class), and with his big grin, asking someone to film him why he fired a .22 the teacher was loaning. He didn't listen to any of his training and was aiming for the head. One bullet at the very edge of the head and nine in the ceiling. The two others who had never had any formal training, listened and followed directions and did well. The experienced shooter, me, learned something from this man who has competed nationally, and I was ticked to get 8 rounds of of the 10 point circle, out of 40.
There are people who take it seriously, and then there are those who think they are going to be Rambo.

Yes, I think you are. The discussion went off track when it morphed into a political discussion placing blame on everyone's favorite blowhard and implying that we as a society were on our way to fascist/national socialist state. I very much value the victims lives but remain unconvinced that pogroms are on the horizon.

I wish I shared your sunny optimism. But it's not just the hate inspiring ass in chief, it's the whole republican party that's the problem.

If the citizens of this country are moved to extremes by an orange loudmouth then that is the problem. They are easily fooled. Americans need to start thinking for themselves, and critically so.
