Tulsa reserve deputy interview

[Ronin13]

Pre-great crash of 2015 IIRC, there was a thread about a Tulsa reserve deputy, aged 73, who shoot and killed a suspect thinking he pulled his Tazer. He spoke with Matt Lauer and wow, what a terrible speaker. He even claims this could happen to anyone. How? I still don't understand how you mistake your firearm for a Tazer.

When you hit 73 get back to us. IMO he should have NEVER been allowed to wear a uniform.

I wasn't saying it was all due to his age, although I don't know many 73 year olds who can keep up with the majority of the cops I work with (I would welcome any that can). But when I hit that age I hope to be retired and not called upon to chase down bad guys.

So you do know some 73 yr olds that can keep up with them? In other words, im glad you (and the guys you work with) are not in my county.

You going to start selling them?! I'm sure a matte black with SureFire lights everywhere and the necessary railed Ops Core helmet to match will sell well for the shopping malls.

Funny you should mention 73 year olds. Jack Palance was 73 when he won an Oscar for City Slickers:

Chuck Norris is 71... I can only assume at his age he is probably still pretty fit. R. Lee Ermy is in his late 60's and would appear to still be able to handle himself. I personally don't know anyone in their 70's that could work the streets, but I'm sure some exist. Who was that fitness celebrity who could kick the crap out of people and he was in his late 80's?
