Put in the perspective that both yourself nad TR have put this in, the fact that they lack propor training and equiptment to confront situations like the two discussed in this thread is rather frightening to me.
As someone who is actively pursunig a career in LE, what advice would you have to try and combat the lack of preparedness on the part of most departments to face issues like these?
Once you get hired, pass the academy, and pass FTO. Dig deep into your own pockets and get quality training from QUALIFIED people.

Longtab made some good points about the Troopers he knows. ALL LEO's should follow those examples.

Just my .02 cents YMMV
