NYC Officer Killed by gunfire (Blue on Blue)

Training in a virtual reality system would help some. It is a building you go into and the trainers throw multiple scenarios at you. It uses lasers and large screens. I'm not sure if NYPD has one of these. Another sad story this is.

NYPD has them as do most agencies and large departments. Most if not all LE get judgemental shooting training. Some is video based and a lot is force on force utilizing simunitions. Gone are the days when you could say you weren’t hit. Good hits sting and anything solid leaves a paint marking. It isn’t that people aren’t trying to address the problems, but people make mistakes. One or two mistakes are all that are needed to forge the chain of tragedy.

We are all one mistake away from being the victim of tragedy, and that mistake maybe made by someone other than you.

Be safe.
