'racking the slide' LOL LOL . I remember an incident where a cop was in the back room of a store waiting for possoble BGs . One came in, the cop ID'd himself and immediately was shot at !! That's as funny as those that think the BGs will wait for you to finish in the bathroom before they act .Most of the BGs are high on drugs or alcohol....But knocking a person ove r ? just work out the numbers , it's just physics. There was a wonderfull video from a cruiser where a cop shot a BG with a 45 [in the stomach] with little effect.You can hear the cop say that he thought a 45 would have more effect than that !! Only hits ,only good hits and there is no sure thing so keep shooting until he's no longer a threat !!!
