Longmont Police officer shoots man in gun battle near shopping center

training training training. Well done officer. I'm glad to hear the good guy prevailed here and I hope they are able to "withdraw" information from the perp. Anyone want to guess the chances of narcotics related, possibly in the car?

[DingleBerns]

Glad he made it out ok, scary stuff.

Sounds like the officer did a good job of keeping his wits about him and returning fire. I'd like to hear some details on this. That's twice recently where guys have been stopped for traffic and got out of their cars with an AR. I think the other was near Cleveland? Both times the officers armed with handguns prevailed.

It's the archer, not the arrow. Great job by the officer.

Drove by the scene on the way to work this morning, was still pretty active at 6:30.

That officer is a poster child for gun control. He hit what he aimed at.

Glad the officer prevailed.

Just wait. When the 94 AWB / Crime bill was up every swinging dick shooting was plastered all over the media. Within the last 19 years the media / twit / faceplant info highway has a baby burping the gilligans island theme going "Viral" within seconds.
Gun Control advocates [incld MSM] will do everything possible to place 6 pointed yellow stars on gun owners [not that they haven't already] demonizing them as "Dangerous, threats to society"

WAY OT TIN FOIL HAT NEXT FEW WORDS:

I would not be surprised to see something where a "Gun Owner" went on a rampage at NRA headquarters.

Headline to read.

GUN NUT, GOES NUTS

Good riddance to any asshole driving around at 2:15 AM with a loaded AR and his lights off. Sounds like he wanted Suicide by Cop and society doesn't need pricks like this around IMHO.

Good shooting, officer!
