I am not sure if Jeff misunderstood why I posted this originally, but it is for the same exact reason as HuntandFish stated. I have utmost respect and concern for the men/women wearing the badge. Actually, my main two concerns were:
A. What if I don't shoot a criminal posing as a police, then he shoots me, due to me falling for his trick.
B. What if I do shoot by mistake at a police officer, since many criminals these days are now posing as police officers and I had no idea it was a real police officer?
You see, the last thing I ever want to do is shoot an innocent person. If I had my wife and children in the house and a bunch of guys with guns are trying to ram it down, you know that I will be fearful of the lives of my loved ones. Also, if it is the police I want to fully cooperate with them and make sure none of them or myself are harmed.
My main concern in posting this is the techniques used by bad guys. Yes they are becoming more and more saavy. If anyone noticed the Mexican cartel that was busted recently, in the picture was many guns, grenades, RPGs, and SWAT and police like uniforms. Yes, the final item that was seized was of graver concern to me than even the weapons. These criminals see that they can gain the upperhand by posing as military or police personnel and it seems now in some areas that they perform rob
This I think will be a major concern for citizens, but even more for law enforcement. I am just trying to see how these tactics by criminals can be prevented from escalating, since it seems they are. Seems, that tactics used by the mafia in the 20s, 30s and 40s and now being adopted by drug gangs in the modern day. Law enforcement people have a hard enough job, much more now they have to worry about people thinking they are fakes.
That is what I am inquiring about..
