Anyone ever covered a standoff?

  1. That made me laugh - no sarcasm, no meanness, just old-fashioned incredulity.

    Nope. 50-something white dude and possible Vietnam vet kills two cops and critically wounds a third. Pretty fucked up scene.

    The third officer died today. Most of the department found out as the left the funeral of one of the others.

    Wow, that guy capped three cops, all with shots to the head.

    He'll never see the world again.

    If one of his comes at you with a knife, you come back with a gun. If he sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. THAT'S the Chicago Way.
     
  12. Will the perp will be allowed to watch the nationally televised Permian-Euless Trinity game Saturday?
