Unfortunately, you could probably find this kind of action happening in every state, but Florida does get the prize for sheer volume of incidents.

(14,950 posts)Each cop must have had three clips. 1 in the gun and 2 on the belt. That's 90 rounds between them.
And they didn't even fire one shot? He had 2 lethal beers in his hands. He wasn't following conflicting orders. Shots had been fired. Surely they were in fear for their safety.
Don't they train these officers?
