    Mr Reynolds fails to understand that "training" also involves WHEN to use a firearm, not always how to use it. I bet the media (ABC 57) aired this to further their leftist gun-grabbing agenda.

    If that is him on the FB local news sites, he needs to walk away from his computer. He is getting in pissing matches with people, insisting he was right and giving pretty detailed account of what he did, how and why.

    Honestly, this story scares me. It certainly gives the "gun grabbers" something to chant about.

    I would suggest that you respond to that fear by not shooting in the general direction of a truck containing alleged shoplifters. Problem solved.

    I fail to understand why you think that "I" would do the same? Was there something in my post that indicated such? I will certainly go back and remove it if that is the case.

    The part where he said he wasn't trying to hurt anyone when he shot at the truck made me laugh out loud then face palm.

    Lots of stupid post on the Elkhart Truth article too.

    Well, he said that he aimed carefully at a small spot on the back of the truck that wouldn't endanger the occupants or exit the vehicle. He said that since he wasn't using FMJ, he was sure of the consequences of his firing.

    Don't forget . . . he is "very well trained."
