That's a sobering clip! It really illustrates why I'm not a LEO. I just couldn't do that day after day. I just want to take a moment to say "thanks" to you LEOs who do that difficult and dangerous work for the rest of us.

It is sobering.
I have had to bury too many partners in my years behind the badge.
It's also a sad comment that it wasn't until after the wife and I sold out and moved north, and we'd been here a couple years, and my cardiologist remarked on my "Yes, sir, no, sir, thank you, sir" and asked if I was prior military -- I told him no sir, I was a deputy marshal for 18 years back home -- he thanked me for those 18 years I'd given to being a lawman.
He's the first one who ever thanked me for that.

These scenarios are used in LE training, using electronic, interactive "guns." It is great training for when and just as importantly, when not to shoot. It also serves to remind me how happy I am to have made it to retirement. 8)

not a leo, but it would be "fun" being able to do this.

hoping i would never need to training,

but if ever needed it could help.

You are correct, all those branches are set up for Force options also.

You could do this. I use it for CCW training.

I have many friends that are LEO's. I make it a point of taking the time to stop, shake the hand and thank every LEO I happen to see in my daily travels.
