Florida UPS Truck Shootout After Action Report
BY Herschel Smith4 years, 11 months ago
You recall the incident where police in Florida killed two innocent people in a shootout around other cars, innocent people and bystanders?
Well, as it turns out, it has been determined that at least 18 police officers discharged firearms during this brief incident, and maybe more.
At least 18 officers.
Some guys robs a store. They take a UPS driver hostage. The cops give chase. The cops approach the robbers using innocent civilian cars as cover (i.e., they use civilians as human shields). They turn the truck into Swiss cheese. They kill the hostage. They kill an innocent civilian near the scene. That about covers it.
You’re never in more danger than when the police are around.

When the police are around, we’re all down range.

“Parkland changed everything,” Stahl said. “We’re trained to engage the shooter. If they didn’t do it and something bad happened, [people would ask] ‘Why didn’t you engage them? Why did you allow this to happen?’”
If there’s an active shooter, “we’re going after them.” “If we lived in a perfect world, we’d have bullets that only hit bad guys.”
Skirvin, whose union is representing officers for two of the agencies, Miramar and Pembroke Pines, said the officers were forced to save their own lives by returning fire at the robbers who were trying to kill them. “We’re trained if there’s an active shooter to shoot back, to contain the threat and eliminate the threat.”
No police were wounded in the shooting.

I’ve seen a lot of people try and make excuses for the police. These 2 videos are from a retired cop who was banned from youtube. He makes it clear that what those cops did in Fl. was wrong.

How we have fallen. At this point there are probably better police agencies in South America and Mexico than here.

Where do they find these clowns? The five year old kids who play “cowboys and indians” have better tactics than these guys do.
Unbelievable.

I’m going to try and save that video before it disappears. It seems to show the driver being shot by the cops as he is trying to get out of the truck.
