If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

Where did you hear that? I've never heard of off duty cops not being allowed to carry.

From the Blue Lives Matter website originally, it showed up as a discussion topic on a board I watch. Some of the LEOs on the board didn't agree with Chief Craig, they thought that unknown dudes producing a gun during an active shooter situation could be hazardous to their health.
Chief James Craig Doesn’t Like Trained Officers Being Disarmed
Detroit, MI – Detroit Police Chief James Craig said on Monday that off-duty police officers who were attending the concert in Las Vegas on Sunday night should have been armed, and that more should be done to prevent mass shootings.
Fifty-nine victims have died, and 567 victims were injured in Sunday night’s mass shooting at the Jason Aldean concert outside the Mandalay Bay Resort, according to WXYZ.
The suspect, Steven Paddock, killed himself as police officers breached his room on the 32nd floor of Mandalay Bay.
It was a scene of terror, fear, and chaos, as shots rang out while performer Jason Aldean was on stage. It was the final night of the three-day Route 91 Harvest Festival in Las Vegas Village.
One witness, Meghan Kearney, told MSNBC, “We heard what sounded like firecrackers going off. Then all of a sudden we heard what sounded like a machine gun. People started screaming that they were hit… When we started running out there were probably a couple hundred [people] on the ground.”
She said, “People kept dropping and dropping. … People were getting shot one foot away from us,” she said. “People were trying to save their friends. There were gunshots everywhere. Helping them would’ve meant that we got shot, too.”
In a press conference, Chief James Craig said, “I’m told they (off-duty officers) were not allowed to bring in their firearm. That is a problem for me.”
He has long advocated for off-duty police officers to be able to carry their weapons, and praised the MLB for allowing them to do so.
At the same time, he criticized the NFL for not allowing police officers, including federal officers, to have their weapons with them at a game.
Chief Craig said, “In these times we’re in right now, we have to find ways to mitigate threats. We have to consider the off-duty officer a force multiplier.”
“We have to start thinking on risk mitigation. We need to think about force multipliers and the only way we do that is to think about off-duty officers,” he added.
He said that the Las Vegas Police Department “moved quickly to take out the threat,” according to ClickonDetroit. He also said that something should be done to prevent people from stockpiling guns in a motel room.
Chief Craig said, “While off-duty officers might not have saved lives in the Vegas massacre attack, every second counts, and armed off-duty officers must be equipped to take out active shooters.”
“I mean, what good are they if they aren’t armed?”
At least sixteen firearms were reportedly found inside Paddock’s room, and investigators in Las Vegas are trying to determine how he got the weapons into his room, which he checked into on September 28, according to Fox News.
In addition to the weapons multiple very high-capacity magazines were found inside Paddock’s room; more weapons and ammunition were found at his residence after a search warrant was obtained.
Some of the weapons were high-powered rifles that were capable of penetrating a police officer’s body armor. A modified bump stock rifle was found, which allows a gun to simulate rapid automatic gunfire. The guns are being tested to determine if they were capable of firing automatically.

Shooting the person with the gun. Which would have been half of the crowd the moment they realised they'd heard gunfire. These were rednecks at a Country Music festival.

huh. what happened to the, like, 28 or 30?
which means what? fucken 5.56 ball will do that shit. easy.Some of the weapons were high-powered rifles that were capable of penetrating a police officer’s body armor.

"modified" bump stock? why?A modified bump stock rifle was found, which allows a gun to simulate rapid automatic gunfire. The guns are being tested to determine if they were capable of firing automatically.

except no.

Try and keep up. The 'missing' weapons were still at his house.
There is a problem when the reporters lack any understanding of the technical detail about which they are writing. I'll be charitable and assume they are referring to the bump stocks as a modification.
It's the same in NZ, if the press are required to mention a rifle it will invariably be described as 'high powered' - unless it was a 22.

i try not to. it saves me from droll conversations with people who believe the news.
and i'm picking that by the time all the facts are to hand, everyone will have lost interest.
worse if the ignorance is pushing/supporting an agenda.There is a problem when the reporters lack any understanding of the technical detail about which they are writing. I'll be charitable and assume they are referring to the bump stocks as a modification.

they have sports reporters, human interest, weather events etc, it's a wonder jews outlets don't have a knowledgable firearms reporter on hand...or y'know someone who isn't talking out their ass.

Yes, no one is ever shot with a low powered rifle. Sometimes the phrase high calibre is used as well.

I find it abhorrent that those who died during this cowardly attack are just ''numbers'' to the media. Why the gutless piece of shit who did this is getting so much world wide attention is beyond reasonable belief. Each "number" was a real living person who loved and was loved, of that I have no doubt.
'' i'd let you touch me.''
Sorry fulla but I am spoken for.

How do you suggest the media refer to them?

It would not have mattered - the chance of an armed cop in the crowd hitting a sniper across the road in the 35th floor with a hand gun is about nil, zero, zip ...
"So if you meet me, have some sympathy, have some courtesy, have some taste ..."

This guy has balls ... in the middle of the shooting flips the bird to the gunman ...
