I could only find
this from the late 90's.
You'll never guess who was Mayor at the time. Well, TS may be on the right track.
There's also a report on
Deadly Force in DC. Here's the lead paragraph:
The District of Columbia's Metropolitan Police Department has shot and killed more people per resident in the 1990s than any other large American city police force.
Regarding the situation of the snowball fight: we're living in a crazy world. High schools, colleges, Post Offices, shopping malls, and highways (road rage) have all seen gunfire by wackos. My first thought was that no cop would pull his weapon because his vehicle was hit by some snowballs. My logic tells me that if he isn't a cop (my stereotype is that cops use verbal threats before going to the gun) then he's a wacko. He's angry, he has a weapon in his hand, and is thereby unpredictable. I say he is a threat.
Are there thoughts thwarting my threat thinking?
Who brings a snowball to a gunfight anyway?
Here's the reality: Detective Baylor is a LEO who is authorized to carry in EVERY state.
Be safe.
