today's video marks the first time that
we've seen not a badge cam
but actually a camera attached to an
officer's firearm
[Applause]
[Music]
welcome to today's active
self-protection bonus badge cam lesson
i'm your host john korea it comes to us
from vernon texas
today's video is brought to you by the
generosity of new bold targets
new build targets are self-sealing
reactive polymer targets
that act like steel targets for training
in practice but are safer than steel
they allow bullets to pass completely
through the target without ricochet or
lead splatter
check out their links in the description
and thank them for bringing us today's
video
if you go watch the original video on
this it's quite long the officer is here
in the neighborhood on an unrelated case
involving a dog bite and when he gets
done
he sees a car that he pretty sure
belongs to
a somebody with a significant warrant
for sex crimes against children
so he's gonna head over to check that
out let's listen in on the audio
how you doing what's your name mark
walter
mark your name is not walter why because
that's your name
okay step out of the car step out of the
car
step back
oh oh
[Music]
the officer got multiple hits on the
perp the perp did get
a hit on the officer in his left arm put
41 shotgun pellets in the officer's arm
according to the news story that i've
linked in the description 36 of them
are still in the officer this guy
the perp ended up making it they're
going to get him out of the car if you
go watch the original it's significantly
long you can watch him scream and haul
her
when they load him up in the ambulance
because he's hurting
but he ends up doing 40 years he has
been
sentenced just for this assault on the
police officer as far as i can find they
didn't
and have not yet sentenced him for the
other charges or even convicted him
of them the officers made a full
recovery and is back to work
and that's where this one ends i think
that was an interesting perspective
from the firearm though we're going to
talk about whether it's particularly
better
than a badge cam if you want to work on
not just your mindset like we work here
on the main active self protection
channel but your skill set
join us on our second channel active
self protection extra that's where we
work on skill set
every single day of the week so hit the
link in the description and join us and
subscribe over there this one begins
with what i think is just some good
old-fashioned community policing this
officer knows who he's looking for
knows what the problems are in his
community and he's gonna go and do his
best to get in here and talk with this
guy
and you know affect an arrest without
any violence now again
this guy is wanted on multiple felony
warrants for child sex crimes
this guy is no joke and the officer
comes up and uses words and tries his
best to de-escalate hey man what's your
name the guy gives him a fake name and
those kinds of things
he's going to try to pull him out of the
car now why is he going to try to pull
him out of the car because of exactly
what happens here
because these kinds of things are super
common so again guys going to give him a
false name
talk about it those kinds of things
officers can decide no i know who this
guy is because he's dealt with him
before
so he's going to pull him out of the car
now the officer absolutely has the right
to pull him out of the car
but having the right to pull him out of
the car and the ability to do so are
different things notice what i i stopped
this here
because you can see that the guy has got
his foot jammed into the a-pillar there
and that's a very common tactic so for
my officer friends not just want to pull
somebody out of a car you got to
actually train in pulling a resisting
subject out of a car
that is a significant thing and a task
that is very difficult with somebody who
does not want to be taken out of a car
but it can be done with the right
technique and knowing how to get a hold
of that guy and get him out
now officer does have his gun out and
you ask why does he have his gun out
well what we saw when it was slowed down
is this guy's going for a shotgun when
the officer saw the shotgun and saw the
guy start making a move for the shotgun
he decided to disengage and get his
pistol out less in here
you better get your gun out quickly when
you need it it is going to be an
emergency so practicing getting that gun
out fast
getting a good grip on the gun and a
good shot incredibly important
we can see the shotgun coming out right
here so you can see in the top left side
you can see that he's pulling this slot
off shotgun and he's going to work with
it now notice as well
the officer is having a difficult time
getting a good grip on his pistol so
he's not getting the kind of
fight stopping hits that we want now
right here he's starting to get his left
hand off the gun
and i'm not going to blame him from here
because again he took a shot in his left
arm from that shotgun so he's going to
stay in the fight with his right hand
which i think shows pretty incredible
emotional fitness that said
i really want you to think officers
about the fact that if his first couple
shots had been highly incapacitating
he might not have needed the rest of
them so get as good as you possibly can
as quickly as you possibly can because
when you get
in there and you get after it you may
not get an ideal world and you want your
marksmanship skills
to be 100 unconscious competence
now notice here as well he's going to
try to get his left hand back on the gun
he doesn't even know he's shot at this
point which shows me an
incredible emotional fitness that he's
like no i'm in a fight right now i'm
gonna try to get two hands on the gun
and do the best i can
so again he has got a very difficult
time trying to get his hand on the gun
because he's been shot
he does eventually get his hand back on
the gun and reclaim kind of
a little bit of grip and now his gun is
empty and he's got to get it back in the
fight so these are things that we don't
see in private citizen gunfights
in analyzing over 30 000 private citizen
gunfights i've never seen a reload have
an effect
on a private citizen gunfight never seen
a reloaded gun actually
used to shoot and stop a threat however
in officer involved incidents we see it
all the time
as here and therefore it's a skill you
need to be very good at notice here the
magazine didn't fall free
that can happen at times pretty uncommon
in modern polymer guns but it does
happen so
learn how to rip that magazine out of
there get rid of that mag and get a
fresh one in there quickly he finally
does that is able to get back there
and then gets good steady shots here
that are at a good pace that are putting
shots where they
belong now do want to notice here when
it slows down
and we've kind of just zoomed in just a
good little bit here
and you can see then where that's going
and how fast that is on the camera
so this is again from the actual uh
camera on the gun
see that gun come around you see our
officer shoot there he's getting another
shot there and then it finally it's
actually the bad guy's gun that shoots
at this point here
so he's getting shots towards the guy
but it's finally right there that he
gets one
shot towards the officer and again make
sure those first couple rounds
are incredibly on target because it's
not who shoots first it's who hits first
it's not who gets the first shot out of
the gun it's the first one who gets an
anatomically significant hit that wins
so yes learn to get the gun out quickly
but get that
grip sights and trigger so good that you
know beyond a shadow of a doubt that
your first shot's gonna hit
which will put you ahead of the curve
for the second shot third shot fourth
shot
this officer i think has incredible
heart stayed in the fight
even shot regained some grip strength in
his left hand
kept in in charge of everything and if
you go watch the uh original
that i have cut some of the the
beginning and the end off here
he stayed in the fight got this guy in
the ambulance and only let them work on
his medical needs after all that's done
and securing the scene and all this
stuff even with 41 shotgun pellets
in his arms this guy's an absolute
warrior and he stayed in the fight
finished it adequately got the dude in
custody and got his man good job guys
and good job officer of covering his asp
