It’s too bad that our police force is being replaced by private security guards in Albuquerque. I think you’ll probably find that the shooting was justified, though.
Any video!?
If he had to fire his weapon to protect himself or others so be it. Now if he fired his weapon simply to stop a beer runner/other retail crime then IDK. Clearly we need more information. That said again to prevent death good for him. To stop a crime that insurance will cover then again IDK.
