True. He has basically given his thugs permission, to shoot anyone with a gun. No questions asked.That douche is openly advocating the murder of law-abiding American citizens? Hang him.

so we send him a short load then they will have plugged barrelsI think it's an effort by the chief to supply his force with ammunition.
We all have read the articles where the shortage of ammo is effecting police departments around the country. This chief had a brilliant idea that if he made a statement that would piss off gun owners, those gun owners would mail in a single round to him as a form of protest.
With enough such actions taken by the gun community, his problem with the shortage of ammo would be solved.
"I don't care if they're licensed legal firearms, people who are not highly trained... putting guns in their hands is a recipe for disaster. So I'll train our officers that there is a concealed carry law, but when somebody turns with a firearm in their hand the officer does not have an obligation to wait to get shot to return fire and we're going to have tragedies as a result of that. I'm telling you right up front."
This is a quote from the article, which quotes the Chief:
I'd like anyone to articulate which part of the statement indicates anything other than the standard police tactics in any state and municipality. In fact it would be interesting to know who out of citizens on the forum who carry daily would employ any other tactics as well.
Maybe they will do it like another department did it below....No need to ask questions, just start shooting.
Baltimore Police Issue Reforms After Officer's Death In Select Lounge Shooting « CBS Baltimore
"Crime camera footage captured the chaos outside Select Lounge. Officer Torbit— in plainclothes– was attacked by the crowd and shot 22-year-old Sean Gamble. Then, fellow officers opened fire on him. Torbit was hit 20 times."

I dont think it needs to be answered. Read what he said..."but when somebody turns with a firearm in their hand the officer does not have an obligation to wait to get shot to return fire"
Well, I am not sure police procedure is to open fire at anyone with a firearm in their hand. Not pointing at the officer, just having it in there hand? Yep, that must not be proper police procedure.
Did you read what happened to officer Torbit?
Did you expect a detailed, word-for-word citation of a police training manual when it comes dealing with armed suspects in a press conference ? These weak attempts to sensationalize such stories are like farts in the wind.
I have read about Torbit, and it is irrelevant. This story is about possible changes to carry laws in IL, police's intention to train their officers on the new laws, and a warning to the citizens who intend take advantage of such laws not to be careless with their firearms.
