It puts a bad light on pro gun advocates when we post things indicating disappointment someone was not shot.

What percentage of shots hit their target when trained police officers fire their weapons?
Can we for once not compare chl to leo's? :smash:
Why? Many LEO's do not shoot near as much as CHL's. I think it's a fair comparison.

Who else carries a gun and is available to try to stop a crime in progress? My intent was not to bash leos in any way. Why so sensitive?

By the way officer, I did not see where the article stated the shooter that stopped the robbery has a chl. Did you or did you assume?
