Qual, so not a bad round.

 

 

For Winter Qual, I shot a 96.8. I threw two 3's and two 4's with my left hand, so not a bad round. It's the last qual of it's kind. The department is going to a pass fail mode with more emphasis with shorter range shots. 

 

 

Grumpin'

 

Don't do that,

 I barked at a Lob's trainee.

He was opening a bindle of tar

 heroin with his bare hands.

 

 

 

 

Taser Numbers

 

 

In 2008, officers in the department deployed tasers 378 times.

 

In 2018, officers used tasers 46 times.

 

So far, in 2019, officers have deployed the taser 25 times.

 

I accounted for 3 of those incidents.

 

 

 

 

Qual

 

After roll call, D-Fresh

ran me through range.

I shot a 94 with my primary

and a 96 with the back up.

 

 

PVO

 

Today, I had a single day of In-Service:PVO
