Good shoot.

Those fuckers forget that hijackers armed with "only box cutters" managed to hijack planes and fly them into buildings which killed thousands of people?

Moron suicide by cop after involvement in five vehicle collisions.

It certainly appears to be justified. Does anyone want to estimate the distance between the officer(s) and the moron though? Hard to tell on my little monitor.

Glad she’s okay. Hope she enjoys a long (boring Wink) career.

I can tell you in L.A., knife assaults are way up since the CoVid. Lots of unstable people committing crimes of opportunity.

I believe I saw her featured in the Dillon catalog. She is a competitive shooter. Vivid proof that training and practice pay off.
And the lawsuit? Ghetto Lottery ploy.

They don't call that district Shootin Newton for nothin.

That officer is a great shot. She trains with Taran Butler and has shot with Keanu Reeves at Butlers facility - Taran Tactical. There were videos of her training up on Youtube. She looks as good as she shoots too! Wink Regards 18DAI

Good point. Each shot was controlled and accurate.

I'm glad she's OK, good shoot. Excellent control.

As for the shitbird. I hope it fucking hurt as he died. Good radiance. As for the "families attorney" I hope some shitbird guts him like a fish. What a pos.

Way to go Toni! These scumbags have to learn the hard way when an officer tells you to drop the weapon, you should do it.

She's very attractive, unfortunately her good looks as a model, her historical relation to the police dept (father is one of the execs of LAPD union) and enthusiasm for competitive tactical shooting will be used against her by the assailant's family. Their lawyer is already chirping the narrative that the officer was a disciple of the 'warrior cop' ethos. Never mind the assailant has a history of mental problems that involved violent encounters. By all accounts, this looks pretty text book.

Given the history of Taran Butler, I'd have taken down whatever social media posts ASAP and distanced myself from that guy given the dark cloud hanging over him and his behavior with impressionable young women. She'll be painted as a shoot-happy, gun bunny with not a care in the world for human beings.

So what? Anyone with half a brain can see otherwise. You think the family wouldn't be trying to hit the ghetto lottery if her face wasn't on a magazine cover? She was 100% in the right and her training paid off. Fuck what those clowns think!

All of those folks dicking around down range waiting for the show are damn lucky it was someone with her skills behind the trigger. What compels idiots to hang around and rubber neck this kind of stuff? Good way to catch a bullet with someone else's name on it.

She was smart for taking him out when she did and not allowing him to close the gap, she certainly knew what she was doing. Good for her

What do her looks have to do with it? What would it change about this incident if she happened to look like Ernest Borgnine?

I have read that in a book, why do they call it shooting newton?

I’m not familiar with LA, just that it’s ginormous, covered with people and it’s in California...
