At about 56 seconds into the video, the perp gets WHACKED with the Halligan. Until now, I did not know what a Halligan was. In this case, it worked better than a Taser! In shocking news, the perp had eight warrants... https://www.police1.com/invest...hter-caught-on-video | ||

It's like swinging an axe. I would have been afraid it would kill him and swung for a "mobility kill" strike to the leg. I hope he lives and the firefighter goes unpunished. Bruce "The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with." -Douglas Adams “It is just as difficult and dangerous to try to free a people that wants to remain servile as it is to try to enslave a people that wants to remain free." -Niccolo Machiavelli The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. -Mencken | |||

Those weren't the guys in suits standing around?
That's because somebody was waiving it around instead of using it. | |||

I love the clang of the Halligan as it hits the ground! Thus the metric system did not really catch on in the States, unless you count the increasing popularity of the nine-millimeter bullet. - Dave Barry "Never go through life saying 'I should have'..." - quote from the 9/11 Boatlift Story (thanks, sdy for posting it) | |||

^^^ That clanging sound was the hooligan and not the Halligan. Wouldn’t want to damage the halligan. | |||

I was happy the Firefighter was able to stop the threat. I was appalled to see the WORTHLESS Cop stand there and do nothing, talk about a DEI hire, I would hate to be her partner! I was also not happy watching the other Fireman stand around and watch and retreat from the guy attacking there fellow firefighter. | |||

That first hit to the leg didn't work very well | |||

That cop was absolutely useless. From her poor command presence and horrible posture to the half-hearted deployment of the Taser...the rest of her employment needs to be with traffic or records. | |||

Another useless female cop. This time it wasn't a male cop who saved the day, it was a firefighter. But I'm sure the department got a nice grant from the fed to hire her. NRA Life Member Steak: Rare. Coffee: Black. Bourbon: Neat. | |||

Diversity! Holding a taser and standing there looking stupid is our strength. She could be a captain by the end of the week. A Halligan is a tool used for opening entryways and locked doors. It also works for letting Tweety Birds run free and encircle the heads of dipshits. | |||

 The left end is an adze and a pick, the right end is a wedge for prying, the slot for the head of an ax to ride piggyback. The guy on its receiving end was lucky to not be DRT. There are dozens of them on Amazon, varying considerably in price, mostly 30-inch. An 18- or 24-inch might not be a bad thing to carry in a vehicle. | |||

Mr Brown had eight outstanding warrants! Good job Mr Brown! https://cwbchicago.com/2026/11...anding-warrants.html In my humble opinion, that officer is fucking useless. Absolutely useless. And what’s wrong with the CPD today. Those people standing around hopefully prayed for that officer too, because if things would have went differently, she would have been in a world of pain until someone stepped in to save her (fat) ass. NO want, need nor desire to be “the Police”. Stand the fuck around, do as little as possible, and collect a paycheck, that’s obviously her goal for the next 25+ years. She did deploy the taser, pulled the trigger twice. I don’t know if they were bad hits, no hits or simply ineffective due to Brown being all jacked up on PCP and Cocaine (from the toxicology report from the hospital). Tasers aren’t as effective as people think- IIRC, hovering around 50%. At some point, ya gotta go hands on. Obviously, she’s fucking incapable. Sometimes, if you’re by yourself, you gotta handle shit by yourself. That’s the harsh reality of the job. Personally, I’m happy for 2 things: 1) Im near the end. I can see the finish line not too far off. (I can technically leave at any time, so if something stupid does happen, I can walk) 2) I’m a Sgt on a Tactical Team. I have 10 misfits that love to do actual “Police Work”, and they do it well. (Gangs, drugs, shootings, homicides, robbery & burglary patterns…) So the likelihood of me putting up with this walking shitshow overstuffing her uniform pants is pretty low. Not Zero, but low. “30,000 foot view” of the total situation- That’s what the city and the department wants. Now don’t go bitching because you got it. I can go on and on, but I’m sober and I don’t want to bore you. Catch me after a few beers, then I’ll let loose on the situation. ______________________________________________________________________ "When its time to shoot, shoot.

Part of the problem! Some see those positions as a “reward”. All the pay, all the benefits, yet not doing any of the heavy lifting. That inside spot should be reserved for a Cop with 25, 30 + years on the job, the Cop that’s banging up from a bad traffic accident, or other work related injurys. NOT some useless, waste of a space that WANTS to go inside and hide. ______________________________________________________________________ "When its time to shoot, shoot.
