You socialists are funny. Everything comes back to Bush. Get over it. He hasn't been in office in 6 years. This is all on your messiah.... or to look at it another way, your boy is not too bright because he doesn't learn from the mistakes of others.

The LA Riots were in 1992. You got the wrong Bush Spaceman
Bush 1 did not do anything to cause the LA Riots nor did Obama do anything to cause the Ferguson Riots.

I see. I wasn't aware of them before today.

50 yard shots are not terribly hard especially for someone tasked to carry a gun as his job. Or I should say, it shouldn't be.

Maybe you use targets that would mimic someone trying to avoid being shot at that distance, but then standing still long enough to take 6 rounds.... I'm trained, and I don't think I could hit the marks he did with the adrenaline alone, nevermind a moving target.... at that distance.

If I remember correctly qualifying with a 9 in the military we had very few if any targets at close to that range.

I just did a quick Google search on US Army Handgun qualifications.

FM 3-23.35, C3
A-2
15 May 2008
A-2. STANDARDS BY FIRING TABLE
The following qualification tables apply for day, night, and CBRN qualification. The
standing firing position is used throughout the qualification:
NOTE:
1. The range OIC determines a common
target sequence for all lanes. This
keeps a firer from getting ahead of adjacent firers.
2. Target sequences vary in distance
from the firer, starting with no more than
two targets at 10 meters and the farthest targets at 31 meters.
3. The firer will remain in the same firing lane throughout the CPQC.

Just in case anyone has forgotten the character of the thug that was rightfully put down.

I'm counting 8 hits on target. The glock 22 holds 15 rounds with one in the pipe for 16 total rounds. We have no idea how many shots were fired and missed.

Next time you're at the range walk off 50 yards and have a go, you'll see with practice it's not hard. Granted you won't have the body alarm response that he had but you should see about the same results. If you do your part.

I'm not being an arrogant azz here, I shoot a lot and have kept all rounds on the center cavity from chest to belly at 50 yards regularly. So it is what it is. I carry a gun for defense, it's my obligation to not be a liability to society with my firearm.
Cheers.

Is it SOP for cops to keep one in the chamber? and you missed the point where the SUV might have been 148 feet away but Wilson could have been much closer. and this is after the cop got beat up, specifically in the face, not hard to believe he was shaken up or dazed, I won't say concussed because no report has been made of his injuries.

I have a question. Is the guy to the right in the photo Wilson? If so, he looks pretty good for a guy that just had his eye socket crushed. Well, that is what was reported right?
Then there is the video.
New Ferguson Videos Show Darren Wilson After Fatally Shooting Michael Brown - ABC News

I have no doubt Brown was a bad dude, judging from the store video. But, I don't think a box of swisher sweets are quite worth dying for. Oh well, like anything else we will probably never know the real truth of exactly what happened that day. I'm not assigning blame to anyone here. It is what it is, a man died and a man most likely lost his job and his anonymity for the rest of his life that day. Sad all around.

where does it say that officer is wilson? if he was beat up he was probably recieving medical attention and would not have been in the shot. also, at least to my mind, Wilson would have a lot 'splaining to do, as I believe is the case in any situation where an officer uses his weapon

Read your own posts. Quod erat demonstrandum.

Yeah, my bad on that. It's called target fixation. You socialists always blame a Bush for your boy's shortcomings, and I was fixed on that. Otherwise.....

Pretty sure it is. I cant swear to it, but there is no reason to keep the chamber empty. As a matter of fact, it would be a really bad idea to do so as the last thing you need to be doing in a gunfight is to be charging the weapon.
