| 2023-05-09 |
| [Breitbart] Escambia County Sheriff Chip Simmons held a press conference Monday in which he showed video of a SWAT team member shooting a 58-year-old alleged hostage taker who was armed with a knife. The alleged hostage taker, 53-year-old Ronnie Clark, had "58 felony convictions," FOX News reported. Deputies found "him in a tent with a woman being held against her will" about 5 p.m. Sunday. A five-hour standoff ensued, with negotiators trying to get Clark to release the woman. But Clark was allegedly holding a knife to the woman’s throat and ignored police requests. Sheriff Simmons noted, "This tough guy has got her as a human shield." Video taken by a police drone showed deputies close in on Clark and a muzzle flash is evident when one of the SWAT team members takes Clark out.

| #10 Ref #8: Bessemer, AL. Nice Alabama town except for I-20, about 4 hrs from Jasper?, Ga. (First Mtn City) at Appellation Guns today. Got a kitchen pass this morning to go gun shop crawling. Saved about $29,000. Didn't purchase a thing. Cannot believe the prices. |

| #9 In LEO defense, they are defined as sworn and have different rules and obligations than even civilian PD employees (civil service). My sister is retiring from the local Crime Lab in July. She's civilian. |

| #8 Good point Besoeker, but I meant how the cops refer to us as “civilians.” P. S. On my phone Besoeker wants to autocorrect to Bessemer. So that’s kinda cool. |

| #6 On the plus side, he'll never take another hostage. Sadly he will still commit voter fraud. Looking at the picture of this guy, you can see he's hair on fire, crazy insane. He's just /OFF/. |
