The following has been circulating among the LEO community…..

I wonder how much of this is ‘humor’ and how much is a response to the ‘new’ NYPD leadership…

NEW MANDATED TRAINING AT THE BILL diLOUSEYO POLICE ACADEMY – BODY CAMERA AND USE OF FIREARM/DEADLY FORCE.

When confronted by a person with a gun you SHALL do the following:

1. Face the person with the gun.

2. Direct your body camera at the person. Stand very still.

3. Try to have your camera capture the person shooting at you.

4. Do not duck or turn away or the camera will not get the best shot.

5. After the suspect fires several shots at you, shout DROP THE GUN! several times as loud as you can. Use every non-lethal tool available before drawing your gun.  Start with Pepper Spray, then go to your Taser. Work your way up the Force Ladder, always pausing to allow enough time for the suspect to surrender before taking the next step. If that doesn’t work, throw your baton as a last resort then try to shoot the gun out of his hand. If the suspect doesn’t stop shooting and apologize you may try a well-placed non-fatal shot to the leg. Should your shot accidentally kill the person there is a problem.

6. If you are still alive at this point call your attorney. Call your bank and refinance your home to pay the fees.

7. Keep in mind that you will never be promoted. You will be investigated by the attorney general, the FBI, local district attorney’s office and The Civil Rights Division of the Federal Government and other tax supported people. The ACLU, NAACP, BLM, the press, Sharpton and the very Reverend Jackson will comment and say you are a very bad person and all police need retraining.

8. Do not expect an invitation to the White House for a beer.

9. If allowed to remain on the job during the minimum two year investigation you will be assigned to a desk or cleaning the restrooms at the station.

10. While waiting for trial, be sure to respond slowly to calls for help and assistance, back off at the first sign of trouble, do not stop obvious gang members or any minority person (all persons are a minority in this country), do not initiate any action on your own, pretend that you are blind if necessary, never remove your gun from the holster and always be very nice to those under the age of 18 no matter what physical threat or verbal abuse you may be subject to.

11. Remember, everything will be released to the press. You will receive hate mail at your home and for the safety of your family you must move them (preferably out of state) pending your trial.

12. If fired, consider becoming trans-gendered and registering as a Democrat.

And the latest from NRA Media-

Bottom line, SCOTUS and 2A are on the line…
