I’d enjoy the help. I actually wrote a story about someone helping me once, it’s here on INGO somewhere.
"Booze shoplifting/bottle throwing/squirmy perp, citizen who didn't stick around after the assist" IIRC.

It's come up from time to time. Just ask. "Officer do you want me to help" or similar if possible. That also helps protect you in some states, as you are now acting under the Leo's umbrella.
I've had civilians ask and I had them take handcuffs off my belt for me and help cuff when I could hold someone but not spare a hand to cuff. I know of an incident where an armed security guard intervened in an officer's ongoing gun battle after asking if he wanted help.
to shrug off two hits with a tazer and not seem to feel it? Must have had a whole pharmacy in his blood.
More and more these days it seems officers have to go hands on, having proper training in open hand combatives and weapon retention in the clinch is of utmost importance. Oh, and **** a bunch of driving past an officer getting a beat down, I couldn’t respect myself for passing by.
Some people are just scared of getting sued by the family of the individual or depending on the state, winding up in jail (if they decided to shoot the individual)
Drugged up jihadi and nobody stops to help. SMH
One question though: If you are carrying and the cop is grappling with the suspect, how do you help? You cannot take a shot with the cop in harms way. Do you draw and give the guy a command to cease or you’ll say cease again?
If you jump in, and the perp discovers a pistol on your hip, he may go for your gun. Do you stick it his ear and pull the trigger? If the cop is on his back, and the attacker is on top of him, there will be a shot but if both are rolling around, it could be tough.
Draw or don’t draw if there’s no clear shot yet. If you don’t draw, do you jump in with a pistol on you or what?
There are a bizzillion variations on what could happen, so I know that there’s no real answer to this, but am curious as to what folks are thinking.
Sounds like the start of a porno film.There are other imaginary scenarios that may allow me to exhibit my tools of the trade....
just say'n.........
Generally two honeybuns a coke and a snickers.What kind of punishment do people like this guy get for assaulting an officer of the law in a court? Do they get a slap on the wrist or do most judges throw the inadequate book at them? Of course the ones not fatally shot. IMO anyone that is crazy enough and have no respect for the law should be locked away to protect society from them.
I could not just drive by. The cars that just driveway are a symptom with what is going wrong in the USA. As long as I am safe in my little world, I am ok. Worries me if and when the time ever comes when we, as a collective society, have to defend ourselves. The same people who drive by will be the first to complain why didn't anyone comer to my rescue...sad state of affairs.
If that's you're definition of "jihadi", then you probably need to include every Florida Man into that category.
