Well, I hope the crowd forgives me this first post in this forum being in this thread, but since the protagonist in the thread is my Chief Deputy I figured I might weigh in. While he sent me a link to this thread, he has no idea I am posting this.
Several of y'all (yes, we are in Georgia) have asked questions he hasn't completely answered so I thought I would clarify a few things.
For instance, IF you apply for a job in our agency, during the initial interview process we ask an applicant to tell us about the differences in Tier 1-2-3 stops, and to explain to us the difference between PC and RAS. Now, we only do this for certified, experienced peace officers. You would be surprised at the failure rate. Some can't even come close, and we tell 'em about it too. IF you don't know the difference between RAS and PC and you are already a peace officer, you can't work for me. IF you don't know how to have a consensual conversation with someone without threatening to shoot them in the head, maybe you outta go back to work at WalMart. Cause you ain't gonna work for me.
Re the video now.
I would have all 4 of those cops standing tall in my office. the contact for his stupid, condescending mouth and the other three cause they let it go on. Here we are, 50 years after McFadden(by stopping Terry) gave us a great tool to go after criminals with, and these boneheads decide to behave in such a threatening and condescending manner to a law abiding, tax paying citizen. Not a ONE of them did anything to stop it.
Anyway, I am through for now, but i will drop by to address any issues that may arise from my first post here. By the way, my name is Scott Berry, I am the Sheriff of Oconee Co Georgia since 1993, with 35 years on the job. I 'spect JLW will vouch for me since he was in Morgan Co today screwing around while I had to work

'nuff said.

The only issue I have with the head shot is a higher probability of missing. I live in Plano and bet the cops here would have you face down on the ground and in cuffs under the exact same situation.

I have an idea, maybe we could talk ole Beiruty into giving it a try. I will volunteer to video it.

Yeah, I would be slinging this one:

That would be the perfect choice. I have my camera ready! I will bring the pressure cooker as well.
