The police appreciate him more than they are saying. They pixilated his license plate and then say, 'Oh gee, I wish I got his name'. They know who he is and are doing the right thing by keeping him out of it.
It’s just because it’s dangerous for the civilian himself. An officer arrives as backup and sees someone in plain clothing they don’t recognize with a gun, they could not know if he’s good or bad. I personally commend the guy for the help. He did a great service and no one is questioning the guys heart and courage.
What's funny is they say civilian but the dude could be from another agency, military, or trained civilian. I consider Veterans and military 🪖 the same. Both are trained killers.
Liberals & progressives in Washington state consider sentences like house arrest & ankle monitors as tough punishment, criminals consider both as a joke & easy to evade. You're never going to convince liberals that criminals are not victims of society, which is why they should have as little to do with writing criminal statutes as possible. In the state of Washington that's impossible because they control the legislature. That's a major reason for the decline of that state & its decent into lawlessness..
yeah, but those on house arrest are paying $300-900 a month for their ankle monitor, and if they miss a payment, cut it off, or fail to charge it and it goes dead, they get an immediate bench warrant. So house arrest truly sucks for the defendant. Had someone I knew on house arrest for an assault. He called it being on a 6-month "payment plan" with the County
It's 2024, we have OnStar that can unlock your car or disable a stolen vehicle, but police can't disable a fleeing vehicle?! I'm surprised they get to drive cars and carry guns. We don't need better laws and rules, we need better people.
When I was a younger Marine Officer i pulled over on the side of I-35 because this guy was chasing this woman around the car. Got out in uniform with my service weapon on me. I asked him to stop, told her to get into my vehicle. He went toward his car and started to search for something. I pulled out my .45 and was dead set on killing him if he pulled out a weapon and I told him so. He took off and Highway Patrol showed up. I gave them the tag number and they took the young lady to the hospital. The officer never questioned me about my gun, he was former service as well, called my sir and by my rank. Many of us so called "Civilians", have more training and capabilities than these local Mayberry cops do.
"Many of us so called "Civilians", have more training and capabilities than these local Mayberry cops do." I doubt it. Sounds like some sort of fantasy. Don't you watch these videos on here????? Policing in America now is hard core. It's the O.K. Coral all over America now days.
Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. And terrorists (puppets of the Antichrist) who misinterpret verses, out of ignorance and political motivations, and take them out of historical context (just like radical atheists do by the way) don't help either. Thank you very much for your time. First of all, if you have any questions regarding Islam and yourself, just open the Quran randomly, and you will find the answer in front of you, like a miracle and a sign from God.
Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them). Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI). Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy. Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful. Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI). Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad). Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning! Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures. Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement. It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them. (19-22 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).. God said : Say, “We believe in Allah, and in what was revealed to us, and in what was revealed to Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the Patriarchs, and in what was given to Moses and Jesus, and in what was given to the prophets from their Lord. We do not differentiate between any of them. And to Him, we surrender.” (2:136 / Translated by Community) Salam (Peace) -----------------------------------
There were no politicians in this story. While I would always help a police officer in danger I fully accept that other officers rolling up into a situtation, especially if there has been fire, that I might get shot by mistake. This civilian pulled his weapon. When given directions to move HE HOLSTERED HIS WEAPON, MOVED AND THEN DREW HIS WEAPON AGAIN. That's text book. But what about the millions of idiot, wannabe cops? I see both sides of this as correct and am glad nothing bad happened.
For all that sergeant knows , the armed citizen is what made the difference in the bad guys decision to give up . I'd bet that most crooks don't put too much confidence in a lone female officer when it's 4 against one .Hats off to the unknown armed dude .
@@rickobrien4025the same applies to lone male officers, there are tons of videos showing how brazen criminals are when an officer is outnumbered but, the second the officer gets back up they become compliant or at the very least less combative. All patrol units should have two officers or, until numbers increase and policies improve, one officer accompanied by a K9 - the latter is already happening but, not nearly enough.
Sergeant is out of line. I have been backed several times by citizens with their guns. Hell, the civilian probably has more range time than the officers.
Might be alright in this situation but what about an active shooter in say a large shopping mall? How do the police tell who is the good guy/s and who is/are the bad guy/s when they arrive with little information?
@@alonsocushing2263 When they order the person to lower their firearm, the responsible gun-owning citizen obeys. That's how they know, just like she did in this situation.
"Hell, the civilian probably has more range time than the officers." i don't know what your career experience is but i extremely doubt it involved working in law enforcement at a credible agency
You should never get involved as a 3rd party. Inserting yourself as a 3rd party when you dont know the full story is a huge error. 1st off the police have qualified immunity. The rest of us do not. 2nd you have no idea if the cop is a criminal. Cops can be just as dangerous as any criminal. In fact they usually are more dangerous because people trust the state too much
@@captaincapitalism264 In the handful of active shooter first response videos I’ve seen, I noticed the officer flanks then immediately drops the shooter. No commands, no warning. It might be part of the training or maybe the shooter was currently drawn on someone. I don’t know because it’s always blurred but It’s enough for me to really consider the consequences of helping in that situation.
Having taken the Glock Armorers class three times over the years, I am the only civilian in the class. Everyone else is LEO and some of those are former military. Instructor asked how many rounds a year do you shoot in training. Some responded, maybe half, between 500 and 1000. There were a couple that were up around 6 to 7k, but they were SWAT members. Average was around 500 rounds or less. All due respect, LEOs are not as well trained with firearms as everyone is led to believe.
If that deputy was overwhelmed and taken down by an armed felon, you’d be singing a different tune when it comes to armed citizens helping when they see that law enforcement is outnumbered. This female deputy had the right attitude about it - be cautious but if that guy was a bad guy, you’d be down already.
Oh the TRUTH is we ALL know she would have been overwhelmed by any wanted felon out there!! And that’s the TRUTH any felon that doesn’t want to comply with her is going to do exactly what THEY want to do not what SHE wants them to do!
He may not be a bad guy, but he may complicate the situation further and unintentionally put the officer or others at risk. Stand by, be a good witness, but do not get in the way if not necessary. In this case, he could have stood by his car with his weapon holstered on stand by.
@@TechnicallyJustin Bureaucratic BS. He followed her lead and her instructions. There was only one person who was at the scene, who can say whether this man was right or wrong. She was glad for the support and wanted to shake his hand and thank him for backing her up. Your judgement of the situation doesn't matter more than that of the deputy who was there.
Ok sarge, we'll just keep on driving next time, instead of stopping and helping. That female deputy, who was ACTUALLY in danger, sure seemed a hell of a lot more grateful than her supervisor!
She is a moron. You don't "crawl" alongside an occupied stolen vehicle. I know she thinks she's clever, but that's incredibly unsafe. We would never train, or for that matter even condone one of our officers doing that. No wonder she had no problem with this guy interfering, she had no idea how to handle it herself.
I would be more concerned on how see went straight to the back of their car instead of staying in cover.The other guy was not in any cover either so I guess both of them need training.
That man was a Hero. Sgt needs to stop looking gift horse in the mouth as old saying. It's easy to Monday Morning Quarterback. He looked as if he was a professional as soon as he reholstered his weapon.
@@ArleneCarney-ec5lc Sargent needs to look at civilian training times compared to the officers! Civilians are often way better trained than the officers given the amount of range time civilians do compared to many police officers.
@@theshadowbehindyou9631everyone wants to be a “hero” nowadays. Unless she’s in distress with the suspect. You DO NOT intervene!! You can just sit by and see if she needs help if it escalates to suspect overpowering her physically, but if you’re not a police officer, you should not intervene! What happens if another officer that doesn’t know your a good guy shoots because he thinks you’re on of the suspects! Civilians always trying to feel special…
@@BjAn Cops "range time" is almost exclusively in an indoor pistol range, shooting at paper silhouettes. Everyone I know at the range has more training with more targets than that. I used to work with a local PD, and I'd trust the knowledge, experience, training, and just plain old safety mindset of the range guys before I'd automatically trust any badge. Seen way too many NDs from cops.
“Be a good witness” We’ve been witnessing all kinds of for years now. We’re tired of witnessing the decline of our society… don’t give the responsible law-abiding any more restrictions… otherwise LEO will start getting less support from the responsible, law-abiding tax-payers.
Often being a good witness means defending yourself in a court of law with a criminal defense attorney in WA State. Police have no responsibility to protect citizens. Never relinquish 2A rights, or you own children will become the next government victims.
@@tim3tRav3l3RR60 EPA just 500,000 more rounds of ammo. You think they are going to let you grow your garden and raise your own chickens. That leaves a carbon footprint bigger than Greta Thunderberg's jet. Carbon must be at net zero and if that means you starve, well that is something they are willing to accept.
@@1dirkmanchestyou think there's more carbon foot print growing your own than importing it from 3rd world countries, packing in plastic and transporting across the US for sale lol? 😅
Sergeant said he "cringes" at these cases? The previous case they showed - one of the citizens was ex-military and he was far from "not qualified". They saved two officers that were shot to the head. Yet, Sergeant over here cringes. Wow. I understand there is risk involved and it can cause confusion to have a civilian at the scene with a gun drawn but wow. Just Wow.
The thing is, not every who has a gun was military/police/whatever. There's no way of knowing that (unless they're in uniform or identified themselves, but even then it cannot be verified). The police could have shot the "good samaritan" by mistake. I feel like just because you have a gun, doesn't mean you should dive into danger and act like a hero in every confrontation you see. In special cases maybe, it would be appropriate, such as when the officer is wounded and you're trying to help him/her. However, if everyone starts flailing their gun around and join an active police operation they come across, it will be chaos. If they wanted to become an action hero so much, then join law enforcement.
@@nightcritterzThere's been plenty of times where I've seen plain clothes or Off Duty Officers maybe even from a neighboring Department helping the police. There are a lot of veterans here in this area including myself that are very well-trained and we know what we're getting ourselves into if we choose to do so.
@NicCageForPresident2024 I'm sure, I'm just saying that at a glance when a new officer arrives on scene it might not be immediately obvious if someone in plain clothes is helping or an aggressor. Sure there are tells, but mistakes can be made. I've even heard a story of a citizen pulling a gun on an aggressor that then got shot by another well-meaning gun carrying citizen because he read the situation wrong. I'm formally trained on firearm use and safety myself, and I'm not saying you should never help should the need arise.
I am a former Deputy and if I was alone I would sure appreciate the assist, several LE officers have had their lives saved by citizens. The young Sgt needs to think long and hard before he tells citizens not to help, it may cost a deputies life.
In today's time, with all the hungry DA's that are looking for a reason for a lawsuit, they are obligated to give such a response publicly; regardless of their personal feelings.
I would not help. I wouldn't want to get killed for officer safety, or have the DA bring some charge against me. Way I look at it cops are on their own. Glad your a former Deputy and hopefully doing something more honorable with you life.
Typical worker vs management. The lady cop was grateful and had the balls to say so. The middle management, just saw liabilities, and spewd some cooperate vomit.
I almost got shot a few years back. Iam a 15 year federal officer. I had just got off duty. I changed out of uniform as soon as I get off. I had my badge on my hip and my duty weapon. Some dude walked up to me and asked for a light. It was a joint but I was off the clock so I didn't give a shit. I lit it for him and his friend my neighbor yelled out that I was a cop. He pulled a knife and started walking towards me. My wife had came out I told her to get back in the house. I called the local dispatch who recognized my voice and said they were sending help. I kept backing up he kept following me. If he would have been white I probably would have fired but this was the height of BLM and I didn't want to be on the news for that shit. A female officer pulls in and sees my weapon starts yelling for me to drop it I told her I wasn't throwing my 1911 on the ground where he could reach it so I placed it on my tail bed and turned so she could see my badge and I yelled to hear who I was. Suspect took off they lost sight of him. That night he killed his ex wife and sister. Now I have to leave with not taking the shot.
A million thanks to the "Heroic Deputy" and a million thanks to "the Great Heroic Civilian" we need more civilians like you , a million thanks to both heros sincerely Jose Silva from San Diego CA
It's especially ironic knowing how little training cops typically have themselves. Unless the cops are military combat vets its not a stretch to assume your average conceal carry civilian has just as much if not more firearm training than patrol cops - basically everything the sgt said could apply to himself
wish they would spend some of that training on learning the constitution, That would be a major game changer, thats coming from a dude with a 7th grade education at that. yea what im saying !
@@jjclarkson3261 I agree that its definition has probably become too broad in the mind of the general public, if that's what you're trying to suggest...
@@sfh05004 By principle a vigilante acts in the absence of law enforcement or legal system officials, though it may be legal or moral. This video shows an assist to law enforcement in danger, which is part of an official action.
It's funny because sergeant Moss is talking about flagging one of his deputies when you see cops in crossfire a lot . And how many times have we seen cops apparently not giving a damn about what's down range when they are doing a mag dump shooting towards the entrance doors to a Walmart . Give me a break, and they should be thanking the guy for putting his life on the line.
Dude obviously just wanted to be involved in some way. Just because some cops do stupid stuff and are bad at managing crossfire doesn't give a green light to randos also being bad at managing crossfire.
Yeah, he claimed it was a problem because he doesn't know whether someone is properly trained. Meanwhile, a whole lot of LEOs are not _properly_ trained. I live in a town where the local PD uses one of the public ranges, instead of having their own (no money in the budget for their own facility). It's actually kinda nice because there's a lot of friendly interaction between us and our local cops. However, most of them are definitely not marksmen and several are more likely to sweep someone than the majority of people using the range. It _has_ helped them to want to be better, because getting out-shot by a bunch of regular Joes is a little embarrassing. However, they're not there, yet. I can't imagine how bad it is in places where officers train in private, and don't have to worry about the public seeing that they're a terrible shot.
Going to the range or taking some kind of self defense class does not make you a cop. They have specific training that they together with other cops so that when shit hits the fan everyone knows what everyone else is doing. If some rando shows up they don't know how the cops operate and they could cause confusion and do more harm than good. Like how the guy was initially pointing his gun in the direction of the officer and she had to correct him. That's not what we want. Not to mention all the legal issues that could arise from a civilian getting involved and screwing up something
Trusting strangers is also what the public has to do daily when you live in a city: trusting that neighbors won't steal from you, other drivers to use turn signals and not slam into you, trusting that a stranger won't rob you or beat you up. And lately, strangers seem not worthy of that trust.
I was thinking the exact same thing! It's also what we do in everyday life. Is that stranger driving at 70 next to me going to put me in the side rail. Strangers cooking the food for us. She was in a bad spot and the car was ramming hers, I bet when she was alone she was happy that man was there. Glad he left tho before the other officer could make him feel as if he was wrong.
As a police officer, you'd be lucky - VERY LUCKY to get assistance. Too many of your colleagues are nothing more than armed thugs that get a kick out of ruining peoples lives - and even justify (falsely accusing the innocent) it as "oh, it just makes up for something you DIDN'T get caught for".
When a member of the public helps law enforcement... just say a massive thank you like that lovely lady officer did. Everyone needs help at times... including emergency services.
Nope. He's pure bureaucrat. Toeing the line, so as to try to keep people from stepping up. It's "less complicated" if a deputy gets killed by a car full of criminals, than it is for LE to accept help from civilians. I'm glad the deputy spoke her mind about being grateful for the assistance.
@@TheCharleseyeJumping in for glory could get the officer killed in a high stakes situation. They might have to split their attention between figuring out the new comer and preventing the perp from attacking, all the while the new guy escalates the situation by drawing.
Sergeant says the citizen was pointing at the officer. In this video, he was pointing directly downrange with good trigger discipline. Did I miss something?
The Sgt is a Brass Kisser and towing the company line up the promotion ladder. That female deputy has a cool head and performed perfectly. The civilian is an unsung hero who did the right thing.
Incredibly dangerous because police showing up in the middle of the event don’t know who the hell that armed citizen is. A Good Samaritan was shot and killed in Colorado a while back after he shot the active shooter and police showed up immediately afterwards and shot him by mistake.
@@jagpilotohio So, you're saying this man put his life on the line for the sake of helping a deputy in the line of duty? Yeah, that sounds exactly right. That's heroic. Pretty sure he knew he could be killed the second he drew his weapon on a car full of people. That _is_ the risk you take when you draw your gun. Anyone who carries already knows this.
Friend of mine's dad a Vietnam vet who recently passed away saved an officer's life. He heard gunshots he knew what they were he grabbed his 30/30 ran outside found an officer who had been hit pointed his 30/30 at the assailant and told him if he didn't leave the area he would be killed. The man left the area. He was given an award by the governor of Kansas the policeman was grateful and it was sad that the guy was actually coming to finish the officer off. God bless my friend's father and may He rest in peace.
You mean like trusting a barely trained police officer with a gun when I have 20 years of military experience 7 years of combat experience then come home to being treated as if it never happened? Maybe we all have to make hard decisions and an officer is not the sole arbiter of personal safety.
@CarolineAlaskaFox imagine if he used his hindsight to see clearly after a bunch of officer stops where the officers are pointing guns in eachothers direction. Having training or not isn't why people accidentally have bad crossfire. Shit just happens sometimes. The guy pointing the gun could easily had his gun at low ready when the officer got in front of him, instead of what the seargent suggested which was that he pointed at an officer -.-
@@fleatactical7390 Or anywhere. The ultra majority of LE are rabid anti citizen gun rights. Dont ever be fooled with that age old lie that LE are on your side. They are NOT
I think police need to get used to the idea. But also if someone is carrying a gun, make sure you are extremely competent especially if you are going to help an officer.
@@Tiggitytyecompletely agree. It's one thing if the cop is getting shot at and is incapacitated then by all means help them survive... but some stranger just standing there being an armed Karen is not helpul 😂

We're seeing more & more civilians protecting themselves, community & complete strangers! We need more hero's like this guy! These criminals are getting more brazen!
What do you mean protecting himself he wasn't involved until he got out of his car he should have just kept to himself and gotten out of the way there were no weapons involved yet so he was just shooting at a car that was taking off
I live in the greater Seattle area, and see these two officers on the tube all the time. The stuff they're faced with down in Tacoma is overwhelming. Cheers to the good Samaritan for helping out. Makes me think there's hope. Thanks to both officers for transparency and for the guy doing the right thing.
I have assisted an officer before when 2 people were hiding under a railroad shed, after doing a B&E. They used the RR tracks and hid out next to my property until the search was called off. I was doing security and arrived home early in the morning to hear them talking and had been listening to my scanner earlier and knew what was going on. I called 911 to inform them that I had spotted the two. Dispatch told me the search was called off and I again, told her where they were and kept an eye on them from a distance. The dispatcher reluctantly sent a single female officer and I came out, still in uniform and gestured to their location and I informed the officer that I was armed. The officer motioned for me to approach from one direction while she took the other. I kept my firearm secured and let her do her job. No guns were drawn, but she was very grateful for the backup and I felt the rush of catching the bad guys. 😊 It was a male in his 20's with a 14 year old female. The male had nude pictures of the female in his backpack, so his problems just got a whole lot worse. He had a fresh wound on his hand which matched info of blood on the broken glass from the B&E and he claimed it was an old wound but the blood was still fresh.
Really no need for the Sgt. to repeat the company line - "Don't get involved...blah, blah, blah." A patriot saw an officer potentially in over their head and he helped. Many of others would have done the same. It's time we take this nation back from the left and their "no cash bail, let the perps walk" nonsense.
The dispatcher wasn't doing his/her job properly. It doesn't matter if the search had been called off or not. When a new call comes in, you send officers to deal with it. A person at a computer & phone don't know squat about field work!
@@vaughnbluejr5960 in all logic; dispatcher jobs should be reserved for field officers that have put in some time already. The experience as an ex-field officer would come in handy without a doubt.
Retired Los Angeles area cop here. Seasoned officers can "read" the person who appears to be coming to their aid. But don't worry Pierce County, I have high level of confidence cops today will alienate the good guys so no one will be to quick to help you in the future.
I became a cop in the 80s. Many of were prior military and we worked very dangerous neighborhoods. You had to be able to determine who was thinking about killing you and who wasn't.@@SwampOperator
Citizens are legally armed, can drag a cop to safety that has been shot, can stop the cops bleeding, can call for help, can stop a guy the cop is wrestling with from getting the cops gun. SGT, if nothing else, choose your words carefully or the public will be alienated as this retired officer is saying.
@@that1993mustang Lmfao you just proved their point. It's not all about shooting genius, its about decision making.. and the fact the civilian that ur tryna imply was trained was in the crossfire proves their point further.
What a privilege to not get murked in that situation. I remember a dude getting killed in his own home while holding burglars at gun point. He advised the 911 operator that he had the “suspects” at gun point and was still killed.
Civilian is anyone who isn't in the military OR the police based on all the definitions I've seen. The only reason it is maybe wrong here would be if the guy was active duty military or something--clearly he wasn't active police.
@@isoidWhat would you call the first forms of military when under England's rule? They were called minutemen and were famous with Paul Revere. This meant you had to be ready in a minutes notice to defend. There was no such thing as a professional military and was volunteers who were fed up with England's rule. I would argue a person who is Concealed carry would fall under this definition. As first active support for police officers to render first aid and cpr and support or cover fire. If we ever got invaded our professional military would go off to fight. Our police would then become paramilitary and we would then become the militia which is an in-between which utilizes some training but not full military training or training and waiting to be called by the military. Depends on the militia. I got gear in the event of an apocalypse and can have it ready in a couple minutes.
In a day and age where criminals are being arrested and let go for some pretty high crimes and the distain for police you should be happy and grateful an 'armed citizen' came to her aid.
Cops need to get used to be around other people with guns and not just them, like in the old west, every carried on the open and it gave everyone a higher sense of security, today is the opposite, anytime someone sees someone else carrying on the side they freak out, how awkward is that?
What this female deputy realized, that her male counterpart did not, is that it’s not us against you, it’s all of US against them. Not everybody’s out to get you my man, that gentleman who helped the deputy was calm, cool and collected under pressure. That’s what you should be training to be, not scared of the public.
Most female police officers act and control public interactions way better than their male counterparts. What women lack in physical strength they make up for in brains, intelligence, and empathy, and they can politely and respectfully gain cooperation and control without immediately resorting to physical violence and intimidation like most male police officers.
Be thankful good citizens are standing up despite disgusting policies by the state governor and AG. That citizen should be given an award by the city presented by the chief of police and the mayor.
I love how that cop said that the civilian was untrained..! yet the female cop stood there and said to watch his crossfire and move left, and he said yes ma'am and holstered his weapon and moved to the left as she asked!!! And then he pulled his weapon again to assist her, if that don't scream that this guy is very trained I don't know would...
Did you notice how that hot cop chick snuck up on those kids getting high and placed the tire poppers under their car without even attempting to let them know she was there? Then she "jump startled" them, causing them to flee in panic, so now they can be charged with fleeing an officer, that they didn't even know snuck under their car, in addition to having to buy 4 new tires. Sneaky little tyrants they are. Watch out!
Exactly, that dude was very well trained and performed top notch. The second best thing he did was extradite himself before Sergent brown nose arrived.
@carycoller3140, pretty sure he was grateful and grateful that nothing bad that COULD have happened, actually happened. Thankfully it was a positive outcome but the next "intervention" might not be and someone's Mom/Dad could end up dead be it the civilian or Officer because of such a situation. It's also possible that criminals could try to ambush Police by "pretending to be there to help" and then take their lives. Then what happens the next time a random civilian tries to actually help and the civilian gets shot dead by Police. This can go on and on. So the Sgt., has right to be grateful but discourage the practice in general for the safety of the public and Officers.
She already had a game plan formed in her head, and the guy jumping in, without asking the officer if she NEEDED assistance, is a NEW VARIABLE she has to account for, and that could mess up her game plan. She said since she didn't know if she could trust him that she had to divide her attention now. That is dangerous.
It was nice he had her back but he should've asked 1st. I've been police officer's backup before when they've been by themself. I didn't have my firearm drawn though but if needed I could have.
Anyone that buys a gun to protect their own family should obviously know how to use it effectively. With that said they can sure as hell handle helping a police officer. Thank you to the man that helped the officer.
Yes these criminals have been released over and over and over again and they continue their crime spree over and over again putting everybody in danger

"The best thing to do, as a civilian, is to be a good witness?" WTF, sarge???? You have ONE of your officers facing FOUR felons? And, even though I'm armed, you want me to be a witness? So I can tell you guys how one of your own got Swiss cheesed??? Not a chance. I will announce to the officer "I'm a legally armed citizen; do you need help?" Then I will follow her instructions. I am NOT going to just stand there and watch her get killed because YOU don't know my level of training. In the heat of the battle, it's too late for you to worry about my level of training. Be thankful you have another gun in the fight to give the bad guys something new to worry about.
I understand the concern, but the guy who helped is awesome! This type of situation is very scary. I am glad he was there to help back up the female officer.
If you don't want civilians helping, then don't ask when you're getting overpowered. They act like they are the only ones who know how to handle a weapon.
I applied to Pierce County Sheriff's Department in 1992. I was rejected and filed an appeal. During the hearing, the Sheriff's office stated in court that because during the interview, I told them that I had been at Woodstock Music Festival in 1969, they rejected me. I returned to Honolulu and retired from that department 20 years later.
Can I ask, what was the significance of the festival? Googled it, expecting some sort of massacre, and idk for ptsd or something they rejected. But scanning through… it was just a music festival?
It's not okay to kill babies in no circumstances! Cops should be held accountable for being accurate and precise when making a decision to fire! The victim should be in the scope with absolutely no harm to others
@@Teesquared00 In today's day and age it is a derogatory term used by cops to put themselves above the citizens. It gives them a military mentality. This fits sense their trained that the citizens are their enemy. This is why cops approach most situations with a very combative mentality. Think about this. In a defensive situation if you fire two or three shots you are typically good. Now if you mag dump like a cop very quickly it would go from self defense to murder or manslaughter.
Cops don't want any competition. They wanna feel important in the community, but like they're the only ones that could save someone's life. They are serious ego testicle azzhole, sometimes.
@@tenderprecious criminal menacing with a firearm, reckless endangerment, and that's if they can't blackmail the officer into stating that she feared for her life - assault on a LEO - and/or found herself unable to perform her duties - interference with a sworn officer in the pursuit of her duties.

Contribute today and make ... our next Governor!" The exemption would be Officer Cappetto directly asking of the good samaritan civilian: "Do you have a firearm, and can you back me up?" Without the specific voiced request (or her incapacitation witnessed by that civilian), the Prosecutor will allege at the press conference: "This civilian (named here), with malice aforethought, did so menace by the brandishing of a loaded firearm, these four youths, endangering their lives and placing them in fear of grave physical harm and/or death. We seek an indictment by the Grand Jury on all counts, and will pursue the maximum possible Felony sentence allowed by law.

@@N2.W8SI think I understood it. To us, "police" are total strangers - with a gun - and we're supposed to "trust" them. Despite the horrendous number of innocent people killed by police. (Last time I checked, the average citizen was something like FOUR HUNDRED TIMES more likely to be killed - innocently - by "law enforcement" than in a genuine terrorist incident).
@@DMack6464 How many cops do you personally know? Most are strangers with guns, poor training and virtually no accountability for when they make a "mistake". A legally armed citizen is far better trained and does have consequences for getting it wrong, even if they had good intentions.
Honestly, at this point in Washington State, we need more good hearted and honest gun packing citizens. Seems like aside from a few cops, the entire state just allow criminals to run the state without penalty.
You left out trained. Anyone carrying needs to at least be a little bit proficient. There are few things more horrifying than someone with zero practical experience handling a loaded weapon in your vicinity.
Ya I’m originally from Seattle I couldn’t believe how big of a 💩 hole it turned into. They even have an app that alerts you when human 💩 is coming up on the sidewalk. It’s like Waze or google maps when you mark an accident location. When someone else sees it or steps in it they can mark the gps location and it alerts others so they don’t.
Police always ask for the publics help then turn around and complain about it and saying you shouldnt do that. Next time your in a jam someone might just reconsider helping you because of it. Dont expect the public to act on your behalf then bitch about it. Kudos to female officer for not acting like her male counterpart
Sounds like the armed gentleman actually has some prior training of a kind, considering he holstered his weapon before moving after being advised of the crossfire by Deputy Cappetto. He avoided flagging either officer with his weapon and kept it secured until he was back in position. Props to him for taking a stand, regardless of the danger.
So this Sgt thinks we, the citizens, should just stand and watch the cops get beaten/killed and be a "good witness"? I KNOW I go to the range MUCH more than the normal cops. This Sgt is going to get his partners hurt/killed. A ridiculous statement for him to make.
Exactly my thoughts. "We don't know what kind of training they might have" Well, we do know what kind of training patrol cops get and its typically far less training than your average concealed carrying civilian
Smartest thing that guy did that day was to leave before they identified him. No good deed goes unpunished.
Shows he wasn't doing it for recognition.
100%
The police appreciate him more than they are saying. They pixilated his license plate and then say, 'Oh gee, I wish I got his name'. They know who he is and are doing the right thing by keeping him out of it.
Exactly what I cane to say. Dont help ever. Tuff but true
@@rondodson5736 no, he left because he's white and he knows that cops love charging white folks with serious crimes. he's a smart man
Notice how appreciative the officer on scene was for the help. While the ones who werent in peril condemned the help.
It’s just because it’s dangerous for the civilian himself. An officer arrives as backup and sees someone in plain clothing they don’t recognize with a gun, they could not know if he’s good or bad. I personally commend the guy for the help. He did a great service and no one is questioning the guys heart and courage.

House Arrest is NOT Getting Criminals Off the Streets.
Liberals & progressives in Washington state consider sentences like house arrest & ankle monitors as tough punishment, criminals consider both as a joke & easy to evade. You're never going to convince liberals that criminals are not victims of society, which is why they should have as little to do with writing criminal statutes as possible. In the state of Washington that's impossible because they control the legislature. That's a major reason for the decline of that state & its decent into lawlessness..
True
yeah, but those on house arrest are paying $300-900 a month for their ankle monitor, and if they miss a payment, cut it off, or fail to charge it and it goes dead, they get an immediate bench warrant. So house arrest truly sucks for the defendant. Had someone I knew on house arrest for an assault. He called it being on a 6-month "payment plan" with the County
No house arrest is not working. It’s just giving them a window of time to commit their crimes instead of 24 hours.
It's 2024, we have OnStar that can unlock your car or disable a stolen vehicle, but police can't disable a fleeing vehicle?! I'm surprised they get to drive cars and carry guns.
We don't need better laws and rules, we need better people.
When I was a younger Marine Officer i pulled over on the side of I-35 because this guy was chasing this woman around the car. Got out in uniform with my service weapon on me. I asked him to stop, told her to get into my vehicle. He went toward his car and started to search for something. I pulled out my .45 and was dead set on killing him if he pulled out a weapon and I told him so. He took off and Highway Patrol showed up. I gave them the tag number and they took the young lady to the hospital. The officer never questioned me about my gun, he was former service as well, called my sir and by my rank. Many of us so called "Civilians", have more training and capabilities than these local Mayberry cops do.

Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. And terrorists (puppets of the Antichrist) who misinterpret verses, out of ignorance and political motivations, and take them out of historical context (just like radical atheists do by the way) don't help either. Thank you very much for your time.
First of all, if you have any questions regarding Islam and yourself, just open the Quran randomly, and you will find the answer in front of you, like a miracle and a sign from God.
Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them).
Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy.
Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.
Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).
Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning!
Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures.
Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement.
It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them.
(19-22 / Translated by Muhammad Asad)..
God said : Say, “We believe in Allah, and in what was revealed to us, and in what was revealed to Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the Patriarchs, and in what was given to Moses and Jesus, and in what was given to the prophets from their Lord. We do not differentiate between any of them. And to Him, we surrender.”
(2:136 / Translated by Community)

There were no politicians in this story.

Average was around 500 rounds or less. All due respect, LEOs are not as well trained with firearms as everyone is led to believe.

Sergeant said he "cringes" at these cases? The previous case they showed - one of the citizens was ex-military and he was far from "not qualified". They saved two officers that were shot to the head. Yet, Sergeant over here cringes. Wow.
I understand there is risk involved and it can cause confusion to have a civilian at the scene with a gun drawn but wow. Just Wow.
The thing is, not every who has a gun was military/police/whatever. There's no way of knowing that (unless they're in uniform or identified themselves, but even then it cannot be verified). The police could have shot the "good samaritan" by mistake.
I feel like just because you have a gun, doesn't mean you should dive into danger and act like a hero in every confrontation you see. In special cases maybe, it would be appropriate, such as when the officer is wounded and you're trying to help him/her. However, if everyone starts flailing their gun around and join an active police operation they come across, it will be chaos. If they wanted to become an action hero so much, then join law enforcement.
If a law abiding citizen draws his weapon, he or she knows the danger. Just a thank you would suffice, not a after school program.

Sure there are tells, but mistakes can be made. I've even heard a story of a citizen pulling a gun on an aggressor that then got shot by another well-meaning gun carrying citizen because he read the situation wrong. I'm formally trained on firearm use and safety myself, and I'm not saying you should never help should the need arise.
I am a former Deputy and if I was alone I would sure appreciate the assist, several LE officers have had their lives saved by citizens. The young Sgt needs to think long and hard before he tells citizens not to help, it may cost a deputies life.
In today's time, with all the hungry DA's that are looking for a reason for a lawsuit, they are obligated to give such a response publicly; regardless of their personal feelings.
A *deputy's (not deputies) life.
His ego will get the best of him one day.
@@86thsamurai So they're too much of a cowards to step up to the DA...
I would not help. I wouldn't want to get killed for officer safety, or have the DA bring some charge against me. Way I look at it cops are on their own. Glad your a former Deputy and hopefully doing something more honorable with you life.
Typical worker vs management. The lady cop was grateful and had the balls to say so. The middle management, just saw liabilities, and spewd some cooperate vomit.
My thoughts exactly.
Sgt Jelly: "Now I have to worry about if they will get shot."
Everyone: No you don't! He entered a guns out situation on his own!
Exactly the comments i was looking for. Sheriff Sgt. is full of shit...
"Don't try to copy us" I'm sorry what? What a shithead officer.
I almost got shot a few years back. Iam a 15 year federal officer. I had just got off duty. I changed out of uniform as soon as I get off. I had my badge on my hip and my duty weapon. Some dude walked up to me and asked for a light. It was a joint but I was off the clock so I didn't give a shit. I lit it for him and his friend my neighbor yelled out that I was a cop. He pulled a knife and started walking towards me. My wife had came out I told her to get back in the house. I called the local dispatch who recognized my voice and said they were sending help. I kept backing up he kept following me. If he would have been white I probably would have fired but this was the height of BLM and I didn't want to be on the news for that shit. A female officer pulls in and sees my weapon starts yelling for me to drop it I told her I wasn't throwing my 1911 on the ground where he could reach it so I placed it on my tail bed and turned so she could see my badge and I yelled to hear who I was. Suspect took off they lost sight of him. That night he killed his ex wife and sister. Now I have to leave with not taking the shot.
A million thanks to the "Heroic Deputy" and a million thanks to "the Great Heroic Civilian" we need more civilians like you , a million thanks to both heros sincerely Jose Silva from San Diego CA
Sgt said everything except thank you. In the same breath said, citizen with no training and we don’t know their level of training. Unreal
Exactly. Wonder if he would still want the guy to have "just observed" if the female cop was getting hurt or shot. He is an arrogant ass.
It's especially ironic knowing how little training cops typically have themselves. Unless the cops are military combat vets its not a stretch to assume your average conceal carry civilian has just as much if not more firearm training than patrol cops - basically everything the sgt said could apply to himself
@@googlename3859 Most cops have been through a law enforcement academy and training as a rookie so they have training.
Some cops these days are less trained than some citizens

It's funny because sergeant Moss is talking about flagging one of his deputies when you see cops in crossfire a lot . And how many times have we seen cops apparently not giving a damn about what's down range when they are doing a mag dump shooting towards the entrance doors to a Walmart . Give me a break, and they should be thanking the guy for putting his life on the line.
Dude obviously just wanted to be involved in some way. Just because some cops do stupid stuff and are bad at managing crossfire doesn't give a green light to randos also being bad at managing crossfire.
You are absolutely right!
Well damn you should know that Kyle rittonho should be there
He’s butthurt because a mere civilian showed him up🙄
@RoverTheDog1 Then again, the dude could be a vet that has 100 times experience of the cop.
Deputies need to realize this isn't an ideal world anymore. Be glad anyone steps up to assist.
Never tell the public you would not welcome their assistance. Police need all the help they can get today.
No they really fucking don’t. This is a good way to die with how many things could happen
It's pretty sad when police think they are the only ones who have any form of weapons training.
Yeah, he claimed it was a problem because he doesn't know whether someone is properly trained. Meanwhile, a whole lot of LEOs are not _properly_ trained. I live in a town where the local PD uses one of the public ranges, instead of having their own (no money in the budget for their own facility). It's actually kinda nice because there's a lot of friendly interaction between us and our local cops. However, most of them are definitely not marksmen and several are more likely to sweep someone than the majority of people using the range. It _has_ helped them to want to be better, because getting out-shot by a bunch of regular Joes is a little embarrassing. However, they're not there, yet. I can't imagine how bad it is in places where officers train in private, and don't have to worry about the public seeing that they're a terrible shot.
Cops use the range I belong to. It's pretty sad to see at times.
agreed.
Going to the range or taking some kind of self defense class does not make you a cop. They have specific training that they together with other cops so that when shit hits the fan everyone knows what everyone else is doing. If some rando shows up they don't know how the cops operate and they could cause confusion and do more harm than good. Like how the guy was initially pointing his gun in the direction of the officer and she had to correct him. That's not what we want. Not to mention all the legal issues that could arise from a civilian getting involved and screwing up something
The well-meaning guy didn't even know he was in a crossfire situation with the officer. Awareness is vital.
This comment section did not disappoint. I'm happy people in here backed the civilian and the lady cop. It's good to see.
Trusting a total stranger is exactly what the public has to do when interacting with police officers... welcome to the world of the civilian.
Trusting strangers is also what the public has to do daily when you live in a city: trusting that neighbors won't steal from you, other drivers to use turn signals and not slam into you, trusting that a stranger won't rob you or beat you up. And lately, strangers seem not worthy of that trust.
Exactly. Thank you
Right?!? That dude Darren moss sounds like a redcoat honestly.
I was thinking the exact same thing! It's also what we do in everyday life. Is that stranger driving at 70 next to me going to put me in the side rail. Strangers cooking the food for us. She was in a bad spot and the car was ramming hers, I bet when she was alone she was happy that man was there. Glad he left tho before the other officer could make him feel as if he was wrong.
Not if the person was a person of color he’d be dead.
As a Police Officer, personally, I would have been appreciative for the citizens assistance.
Right on. 👍🏻
Untrained?? How the hell do you know son?? 😂 He won’t complain it’s his ass and a Veteran/Security Officer saved his narrow ass
I dont think ANY officer would want to be alone in an active shooter/hostile felony situation!!
As a police officer, you'd be lucky - VERY LUCKY to get assistance.
Too many of your colleagues are nothing more than armed thugs that get a kick out of ruining peoples lives - and even justify (falsely accusing the innocent) it as "oh, it just makes up for something you DIDN'T get caught for".
Citizen assistance. Cops are not military. They are not in a combat zone. Please understand the distinction.
When a member of the public helps law enforcement... just say a massive thank you like that lovely lady officer did. Everyone needs help at times... including emergency services.
The Sergent is clearly not qualified to make judgements about civilian capabilities.
The sergeant is worthless and is not going to help his own officers
So you're a clueless child.

He's a punk who was probably pushed around as a kid and now has some authority to push others around. Wife beater for sure.
Nope. He's pure bureaucrat. Toeing the line, so as to try to keep people from stepping up. It's "less complicated" if a deputy gets killed by a car full of criminals, than it is for LE to accept help from civilians. I'm glad the deputy spoke her mind about being grateful for the assistance.
He is a dush bag
@@TheCharleseyeJumping in for glory could get the officer killed in a high stakes situation. They might have to split their attention between figuring out the new comer and preventing the perp from attacking, all the while the new guy escalates the situation by drawing.
Cops got the right to carry and civilians got the right to carry both with the purpose of protecting themselves and others.
Sergeant says the citizen was pointing at the officer. In this video, he was pointing directly downrange with good trigger discipline. Did I miss something?
You forgot to twist the scenario.

Yes, the car was boxed in from the other side.

A simple thank you will be sufficient!
Great back up. Thank you police and civilian.

Incredibly dangerous because police showing up in the middle of the event don’t know who the hell that armed citizen is. A Good Samaritan was shot and killed in Colorado a while back after he shot the active shooter and police showed up immediately afterwards and shot him by mistake.
@@jagpilotohio So, you're saying this man put his life on the line for the sake of helping a deputy in the line of duty? Yeah, that sounds exactly right. That's heroic. Pretty sure he knew he could be killed the second he drew his weapon on a car full of people. That _is_ the risk you take when you draw your gun. Anyone who carries already knows this.
@@TheCharleseye it’s idiotic and a hindrance unless the officer is clearly in trouble or specifically asking for your help.
Friend of mine's dad a Vietnam vet who recently passed away saved an officer's life. He heard gunshots he knew what they were he grabbed his 30/30 ran outside found an officer who had been hit pointed his 30/30 at the assailant and told him if he didn't leave the area he would be killed.

@CarolineAlaskaFox imagine if he used his hindsight to see clearly after a bunch of officer stops where the officers are pointing guns in eachothers direction. Having training or not isn't why people accidentally have bad crossfire. Shit just happens sometimes. The guy pointing the gun could easily had his gun at low ready when the officer got in front of him, instead of what the seargent suggested which was that he pointed at an officer -.-

I have assisted an officer before when 2 people were hiding under a railroad shed, after doing a B&E. They used the RR tracks and hid out next to my property until the search was called off.
I was doing security and arrived home early in the morning to hear them talking and had been listening to my scanner earlier and knew what was going on.
I called 911 to inform them that I had spotted the two. Dispatch told me the search was called off and I again, told her where they were and kept an eye on them from a distance. The dispatcher reluctantly sent a single female officer and I came out, still in uniform and gestured to their location and I informed the officer that I was armed.
The officer motioned for me to approach from one direction while she took the other.
I kept my firearm secured and let her do her job.
No guns were drawn, but she was very grateful for the backup and I felt the rush of catching the bad guys. 😊
It was a male in his 20's with a 14 year old female. The male had nude pictures of the female in his backpack, so his problems just got a whole lot worse.
He had a fresh wound on his hand which matched info of blood on the broken glass from the B&E and he claimed it was an old wound but the blood was still fresh.
Well done. You are a credit to your community.
Yay!! I'm glad you are okay!!
Really no need for the Sgt. to repeat the company line - "Don't get involved...blah, blah, blah." A patriot saw an officer potentially in over their head and he helped.

Civilian is anyone who isn't in the military OR the police based on all the definitions I've seen. The only reason it is maybe wrong here would be if the guy was active duty military or something--clearly he wasn't active police.
and they are public servants, ideally under a lawfully elected sheriff, not some holy uniformed army that's above any non-uniformed civilian peasant.
@@isoidWhat would you call the first forms of military when under England's rule? They were called minutemen and were famous with Paul Revere. This meant you had to be ready in a minutes notice to defend. There was no such thing as a professional military and was volunteers who were fed up with England's rule. I would argue a person who is Concealed carry would fall under this definition. As first active support for police officers to render first aid and cpr and support or cover fire. If we ever got invaded our professional military would go off to fight. Our police would then become paramilitary and we would then become the militia which is an in-between which utilizes some training but not full military training or training and waiting to be called by the military. Depends on the militia. I got gear in the event of an apocalypse and can have it ready in a couple minutes.

Our tax dollars pay for nice roads, a decent legal system and an effective military. Up here in Canada it pays for our healthcare too. I wish there was less crime in general but people in the west know nothing of real lawlessness, stolen taxes or political uprising. People stealing electronics from Wal Mart is detestable but it's incomparable to the true lawlessness of places like Iraq or Haiti, where people literally starce to death so the leaders can enjoy luxuries. People of those countries have an unrealized prosperous future to fight for. We already have a prosperous and realized future and we take it for granted.
So yeah, I admit that I'm content to relax in my safe space after my daily contribution to society. Isn't that the dream? Were already living it...
@@ryanbarr2977 You're 100% right. But between now and 1/20/25 this is all going to change.
Thank you sir for stepping up to help a officer Lord knows some time's they need help ❤❤❤❤❤
Bravo to that hero citizen. He was WELL trained and equipped to handle that situation. Perfect job!!!
More and more civilians and bystanders are stepping up to help police every day. As it should be when they can use assistance. Glad this went ok.💙
We need people like him in our schools.
Like HIM?? You mean the guy thats saying he doesn't want civilians helping officers in danger?
"The best thing to do, as a civilian, is to be a good witness?" WTF, sarge???? You have ONE of your officers facing FOUR felons? And, even though I'm armed, you want me to be a witness? So I can tell you guys how one of your own got Swiss cheesed??? Not a chance. I will announce to the officer "I'm a legally armed citizen; do you need help?" Then I will follow her instructions. I am NOT going to just stand there and watch her get killed because YOU don't know my level of training. In the heat of the battle, it's too late for you to worry about my level of training. Be thankful you have another gun in the fight to give the bad guys something new to worry about.
AMEN AMEN AMEN
I understand the concern, but the guy who helped is awesome! This type of situation is very scary. I am glad he was there to help back up the female officer.
If you don't want civilians helping, then don't ask when you're getting overpowered. They act like they are the only ones who know how to handle a weapon.
Untrained?? How the hell do you know son?? 😂 He won’t complain it’s his ass and a Veteran/Security Officer saved his narrow ass. Good comment
Statistically speaking the police are more dangerous than armed civilians.
I applied to Pierce County Sheriff's Department in 1992. I was rejected and filed an appeal. During the hearing, the Sheriff's office stated in court that because during the interview, I told them that I had been at Woodstock Music Festival in 1969, they rejected me. I returned to Honolulu and retired from that department 20 years later.
Damn... U were a Pierce county sheriff in the late 90s /early 2000s? You don't live there anymore huh??
Can I ask, what was the significance of the festival? Googled it, expecting some sort of massacre, and idk for ptsd or something they rejected. But scanning through… it was just a music festival?
lots of drugs and partying@@Sgt_Plague
@@Sgt_Plaguelots and lots of drugs lol
Read my post. I was rejected from PCSD because I attended Woodstock 23 years earlier.@@whoever_you_want_me_to_be
It's not okay to kill babies in no circumstances! Cops should be held accountable for being accurate and precise when making a decision to fire! The victim should be in the scope with absolutely no harm to others
Citizen, not civilian.
I live under a rock. Is "civilian" a new slur or insult?
@@Teesquared00no, he is just trying to point out the difference.
@@DesertFernwehWhat’s the difference?
@@Teesquared00 In today's day and age it is a derogatory term used by cops to put themselves above the citizens. It gives them a military mentality. This fits sense their trained that the citizens are their enemy. This is why cops approach most situations with a very combative mentality. Think about this. In a defensive situation if you fire two or three shots you are typically good. Now if you mag dump like a cop very quickly it would go from self defense to murder or manslaughter.
@@DesertFernweh What is the difference?
I understand his concern, but cops should be grateful when a citizen has their backs.
Especially because A LOT do not!!
Texas Tower civilian got deputized.
It is a shame that cops won't do the same for us(Uvalde).
“Wonky” the sergeant “blah blah blah”. Can’t just give up some praise for a citizen that does the right thing.
Thank you for a great man 🙏🌹
F that Sergent for shaming the good citizen. Acting all high and mighty with his 6 months of training.
For real 👍🏻
Cops don't want any competition. They wanna feel important in the community, but like they're the only ones that could save someone's life. They are serious ego testicle azzhole, sometimes.
He did NOT shame him. He is making sure that other people don't willy nilly think they can assist an officer in these cases.
So you know this Sargeant's history?
@@mizzury54 but they clearly can.
There's no way I'd let them know who I was, some prosecutor would try to press charges.
What charges would they be?
@@tenderprecious -- They'll think of something. They always do. Always.
In New York they would fry him
@@tenderprecious criminal menacing with a firearm, reckless endangerment, and that's if they can't blackmail the officer into stating that she feared for her life - assault on a LEO - and/or found herself unable to perform her duties - interference with a sworn officer in the pursuit of her duties. Felony. Felony. Felony. Felony.
I smell 8 years in State prison and a "win" for the Prosecutor's career.
"Confronted dangerous Vigilanteism when a Prosecutor. Contribute today and make ... our next Governor!"
The exemption would be Officer Cappetto directly asking of the good samaritan civilian:
"Do you have a firearm, and can you back me up?"
Without the specific voiced request (or her incapacitation witnessed by that civilian), the Prosecutor will allege at the press conference:
"This civilian (named here), with malice aforethought, did so menace by the brandishing of a loaded firearm, these four youths, endangering their lives and placing them in fear of grave physical harm and/or death.
We seek an indictment by the Grand Jury on all counts, and will pursue the maximum possible Felony sentence allowed by law.
Should we find this crime to be prejudicially biased in addition to the prima facia facts, we will seek enhanced sentencing. No questions. Thank you."
@@tenderprecious Brandishing, menacing, assault w/a deadly weapon, criminal recklessness w/a firearm and that's if said prosecutor doesn't stop to think about it. They can get pretty damn creative with charges when they think about it for more than a few seconds.
Thank you for your service 🙏
"She had to trust a complete stranger" you know how the average public feels now about police
That's kinda your fault, though. They are public servants, get to know your local PD 😅😅
It's the civilians fault for how people who have power over them treat them... What? @@Sandwiches_container
After listening to that Sergeant, I would be a lot more hesitant to assist an officer in need. Pretty much explains how they view all civilians.
@@Sandwiches_container Where are you from? Id love to show you more about your local pd. I work with alot of departments and every single one of them has a bad batch.
A stranger is just a friend you haven't met.
Love how that second cop said we don’t know his level of training yet half the cops on the street don’t have much either😂
Actually every cop on the street has some training and I do mean every one of them.
Arsehole training @@josephhodges9819
and he was completely wrong.
Ain't that the truth
@@josephhodges9819 lol
Good 1..LMAO
Now that cop knows what it's like , trusting a total stranger with a gun.
The irony isn't lost on me.
You hope against hope that they're a good guy, but if they weren't, you'd already be road paint
@@DMack6464 I don't understand your response. Maybe you misunderstood my comment .
@@N2.W8SI think I understood it.
To us, "police" are total strangers - with a gun - and we're supposed to "trust" them.
Despite the horrendous number of innocent people killed by police. (Last time I checked, the average citizen was something like FOUR HUNDRED TIMES more likely to be killed - innocently - by "law enforcement" than in a genuine terrorist incident).
@@DMack6464 How many cops do you personally know? Most are strangers with guns, poor training and virtually no accountability for when they make a "mistake". A legally armed citizen is far better trained and does have consequences for getting it wrong, even if they had good intentions.
@@ygrittesnow1701 Why do you believe that I know cops ??? Did you just make a worthless assumption . YES, you did
Every citizen should be willing to help. Just have the 👍 first.
The concerned citizen often is in more trouble for helping, than the criminal(s) who starts it all.
That's probably why he ducked out. No good deed goes unpunished.
Don't get involved 🤔👍
@@thomasanderson2870
You are probably as correct as can be and like the above post states, "No good deed goes unpunished" in this society.
Honestly, at this point in Washington State, we need more good hearted and honest gun packing citizens. Seems like aside from a few cops, the entire state just allow criminals to run the state without penalty.
Not according to the Governor, Attorney General, and a lot of other politicians with armed security.
You left out trained. Anyone carrying needs to at least be a little bit proficient. There are few things more horrifying than someone with zero practical experience handling a loaded weapon in your vicinity.
Props to the good samaritan, but his choice of cars stinks.
Ya I’m originally from Seattle I couldn’t believe how big of a 💩 hole it turned into. They even have an app that alerts you when human 💩 is coming up on the sidewalk. It’s like Waze or google maps when you mark an accident location. When someone else sees it or steps in it they can mark the gps location and it alerts others so they don’t.
What a cocky sargeant. Many of us have more weapons training than them.
Untrained?? How the hell do you know son?? 😂 He won’t complain it’s his ass and a Veteran/Security Officer saved his narrow ass. Very true comment
Police always ask for the publics help then turn around and complain about it and saying you shouldnt do that. Next time your in a jam someone might just reconsider helping you because of it. Dont expect the public to act on your behalf then bitch about it. Kudos to female officer for not acting like her male counterpart
Sounds like the armed gentleman actually has some prior training of a kind, considering he holstered his weapon before moving after being advised of the crossfire by Deputy Cappetto. He avoided flagging either officer with his weapon and kept it secured until he was back in position. Props to him for taking a stand, regardless of the danger.
Oh okay, you would know.
We need tougher penalties for ALL crimes. Thank you Mr. "Armed Citizen" for doing the right thing and protecting a solo officer who needed your help!!
Thank you for your opinion mr. india.
So this Sgt thinks we, the citizens, should just stand and watch the cops get beaten/killed and be a "good witness"? I KNOW I go to the range MUCH more than the normal cops. This Sgt is going to get his partners hurt/killed. A ridiculous statement for him to make.
Exactly my thoughts. "We don't know what kind of training they might have" Well, we do know what kind of training patrol cops get and its typically far less training than your average concealed carrying civilian
Exactly, if I am all alone on duty and it could go sideways quickly; help me. Don’t be a just witness to my murder, please. 🥴
