Knife-wielding bad guys are dangerous.  They can cover significant distances in a very, very short amount of time – faster than they can be incapacitated with handgun rounds.  Watch this video to see who quickly this man advances on this cop in an attempt to get at an EMT he threatened to kill moments before.

Just another reason to learn how to deal with knife-wielding bad guys.  Come see us in McLean, Illinois for a one-day Knife/Counter-Knife course to learn some fundamentals of how dangerous knives are and how to deal with them.

 

Man With Knife Shot, Killed While Fleeing Officer

How about “Armed lunatic with knife shot chasing an EMT he threatened to kill”?  It might be a far more accurate title.  After all, Randall did threaten an EMT that exited the store moments before Randall tried to chase after him and gets twice perforated by a hero cop who frankly displayed excessive restraint in not dropping him sooner.

Weatherford , TX (LiveLeak) – The family of Randall Waddel, who was holding a knife when he was shot and killed by a Weatherford police officer in June, this week released video of the shooting, saying it shows that Waddel was attempting to flee the officer and was not threatening the officer or bystanders when he was shot.

That’s certainly a creative interpretation of a guy who pissed on some merchandise, then ignored lawful orders from the police to drop the knife and get on the ground.  Ignore lawful commands from a cop, and charge towards them with a knife and you can expect to get perforated as well.

Waddel – who had been diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder and was legally intoxicated at the time – was chased at gunpoint through the store and did not respond to commands from the officer to drop the knife before he was shot, according to video and witness accounts.

So he was drunk in addition to a lunatic?  Fantastic.  Does that make you one bit less dead when he plunges a knife into you.

“My brother walked all the way around and tried to avoid him [the officer] at all costs,” Waddel’s sister, Joyce Conner, said. “Never one time did he hold up the knife. Not one time.”

Never did he drop it, either.

Conner said she doesn’t believe the 49-year-old Waddel behaved in a way that should have resulted in the officer shooting him.

“He had no lawful reason to shoot my brother,” Conner said. “He [Waddel] was mentally ill and scared.”

Nice try, Joyce.  Just because your brother was crazy and drunk doesn’t mean he gets a pass at menacing others.

We’re figuring she’s going to try to leverage his death into a ghetto lottery win in a lawsuit settlement.

Frankly, the world is obviously a better place without this crazed lunatic.

  1. Those two rounds sure cured the crazy pretty darn quickly.

    That copper better thank his lucky stars that mental case with a knife wasn’t after him, or he’d be in a world of hurt.

    PS: Good shoot.

  2. Sorry. Another cop/killer on the loose.

    Now, I’m not saying he mayn’t have been shot if he were actually HEADING TOWARD someone else at the moment he was shot, but the video DOES NOT SHOW THAT.

    The video shows he was actually RUNNING PAST the cop – was, in fact, PAST the cop when the cop shot him. Wait a day or two til the autopsy is in……….it’ll show shots to his right rear and back.

    Let me say it again……….this guy was no LONGER a threat to the killer/cop. Now, I am unfamiliar with those cops’ rules of engagement. If he were a threat to someone else off-camera, then, maybe, yeah. But not a threat to this cop. That threat had CLEARLY abated. Thus ends the legal right to kill, boys.

    This was murder. Now, I’m reserving judgment til the rest of the story is in, of course. I’m not saying killing isn’t justified. If he was heading to attack someone, maybe. But if the cop shot him “cause he was in fear for his life,” he’s a liar, and a murderer.

    TAKE NOTE, you concealed carriers………if you shoot someone who has already run PAST YOU and is picking up speed running AWAY from you, it is murder. You’ve had the classes; you were taught the same things I was. If that were YOU shooting that guy, YOU’D BE going down for murder. It happens everywhere, people are indicted for murder when shooting someone running away, someone who’s already DOWN or someone who has CEASED HIS ATTACK. Don’t try to be cop/superhero here.
    You know the rules are different for you vs. cops.

    Only use your weapon to defend yourself, your hearth and home and your own loved ones … and, of course, against mass shooters. beyond that, you’re risking your life, your fortune and your sacred…….well, whatever.

    Now, on another note, I’m paying attention to the former UFC fighter called “War Machine” who ALLEGEDLY beat up his former girlfriend and her new beau. I’m tending to reverse my thinking on it. SOME evidence is in, and it don’t look good for the tatooish boy. He looking guilty. I initially believed this girl was an attention-seeking dramawhore (which, of course, she is, being a porn “star” and all!), but her story stank to high heaven. It’s looking a little more realistic now. Waiting to hear the rest of the trial sometime later this year before I finish my opinion.

    1. “The video shows he was actually RUNNING PAST the cop”
      Yeah.. Doesn’t even come close to mattering.

      “YOU’D BE going down for murder.”
      No. No you would not be. There are countless cases of defensive shootings that ended in the perp catching rounds in his back.

      “this guy was no LONGER a threat to the killer/cop.”
      You are extremely, extremely wrong. Please put the keyboard up and go outside.

  3. The guy was a threat to life, PERIOD. Whether it be the cop right then and there or a bystander ten seconds later, makes no difference. He had to be dealt with and the knife removed. What would be accomplished by allowing him to flee with the knife in the state he was in? If your loved one were nearby, you’d want him dealt with right then and there.
    Since you’re predisposed to hating cops, you’ll never see it that way.

    1. 1. I’m not “predisposed” to hating cops; I simply hate cops who kill without probable cause, and cops who lie, cheat and steal. If, perchance, that covers 80% of the “profession,” that’s not MY predisposition.

      2. I’m a threat. You’re a threat. Everyone is a threat who’s a concealed carrier, IN THE EYES of the cops. That mean they can kill you any time they want?

      3. This man was entitled to DUE PROCESS, and he didn’t get it.

      I lament the loss of real men who used to, in the days following WWII, Korea and Vietnam, GO TOE-TO-TOE with the bad guys instead of standign off and just murdering them. You old guys know what I’m talking about.

      It used to be that men could take care of business and not have to kill. Nowadays you have 95# womyn killing at a greater rate than the male cops and the male cops are so tacti-cooled up they think they’re out to kill everyone in sight. Again, you know what I’m talking about. Remember the Boston marathon bombing? Remember what the cops did there? BUSTING DOWN DOORS, saying “we’re searchign for the bomber?” Remember? Remember the MRAPs rolling down the streets of our founding fathers’ hometown aiming their weapons at everyone with a camera? Remember?

      Remember KATRINA? Where the cops BRUTALIZED that old grandmother, who was just exercising her second amendment right? And stole guns from anyone and everyone they could? you don’t remember?

      Cops are animals.

      Boch is teaching classes in krav maga now. Ya ever seen how those guys disarm a guy with a knife? Bam, it’s over. Instead, these cops’ll kill a guy without even thinking.

      Remember the video of the cop going IN someone’s house because “he was a threat to himself?” And the body cam showed him execute the guy. Yeah, we have to KILL HIM because he was a threat to ,,,,,,,,,ummmmmmmmmm, NO ONE?

      You are cattle. you don’t think for yourselves. You cannot defend cop behavior like this. It is despicable.

      And when GOOD MEN say nothing, they’ll be coming for us next. Because WE’RE a threat.

      It’s conditioning. You talk predisposition? This is pre-conditioning for what comes next.

      ARE YOU PREPARED?

  4. Holy christ, sombody here needs to back on his damn meds.

    Cops are “animals”…..Im not prejudiced…..

    That schitzofreniac stuff must be contagious.

    1. This message brought to you by years of social isolation and festering bitterness.

      But hey, its a free country. I just wish he’d exercise his right to be a complete moonbat somewhere else.

      Raise your kids right, ladies and gentlemen – or they’ll end up as a cautionary tale like Ken.

    2. Interesting. Point out one FACT I got wrong?

      You guys are as bad as the mainstream media lambasting everything we Conservatives do or say.

      Can you argue with the facts? Can you explain how what I’ve pointed out makes cops “good?”

      Granny with her revolver? Katrina cop killings? Katrina gun “confiscations?” Boston?

      Hmm, you’re a bunch of sheep.

  5. Just wait until John sees this.

    Ken, your cop hating is gonna get you in the dog house, kenny.

    Also, if that’s the sort of education you got at your CCW class on the legal use of deadly force, you should ask for your money back.

  6. Ask for your money back, Ken. You either had an incompetent teacher… or you were busy doodling cop hate drawings when you should have been paying attention.

    1. Here’s the funny thing: YOu can deluded yourselves in that thinking, but you will be bankrupted, and YOU WILL GO TO PRISON if you ever shoot another person in the same circumstances. Cause the threat had ABATED. It was OVER> He was heading the other direction, and the video shows that indisputably.

      I revile cops who kill when it is unnecessary.

      Oh, by the by, here’s some more of your superhero cops to worship:

      http://www.cbsnews.com/news/nypd-commissioner-bill-bratton-harsh-words-mailman-arrest-brooklyn/

      Even their COMMISSIONER couldn’t defend them! Hey, on the bright side, at least they didn’t shoot him!

    2. One allegedly bad cop out of, what? A half million cops in America?

      You must *really* hate black people, Muslims and Democrats then!

      Go away ken. Really. If you’re going to be a circus freak about cops, just buzz off. There’s gotta be a better place for you to share that smelly, steamy used dog food than here.

    3. Take it back, sir. Don’t you dare put words in my mouth and call me or imply that I’m a racist.

      There are THOUSANDS of instances of cop murdering on youtube, in the news, EVERYWHERE.

      That’s just one that popped up TODAY. You know how cops defend cops with NO rationale; BLUE TRUMPS EVERYTHING, including black. That is, a black cop will lie to protect other cops (even white ones) when the complainant is a black. BLUE TRUMPS ALL. But even Bratton couldn’t defend these evil criminals/cops. That is SAYING SOMETHING. We’re getting somewhere.

      Five years ago they’d have prosecuted the mailman and buried ANY dispute under the rug.

  7. Ken:

    This isn’t an April Fool’s Joke.

    Knock off the bravo sierra about cops. It’s factually incorrect. Don’t think so? Provide me a hundred links to individual cases of cops killing on YouTube… not wild-eyed accusations, but convictions for homicide.

    It’s not wanted or welcome here.
    If it weren’t for the clickbait of your lunatic tirades against cops here in this post, you might already be back in timeout.

    John

    1. Wait, Jb? Are you sayin’ you gonna start PAYIN’ me? Cause I attracts readers to your site? Hahahah. Rock on, man.

      By the way, I didn’t say or do anything “factually incorrect.” I challenged ANYONE to point out anything that I said that WAS false. Challenging ME to “provide [you] a hundred links” off youtube is NOT demonstrating anything I said is false.

      They’re there. you know they’re there. You just don’t like that I don’t like lying and murdering cops.

      Okay. Reasonable minds can disagree.

      You may send my royalties via paypal. Thanks!

      Keep up the good work. Thanks for the no-time out.

      But these guys keep worshiping the cops and I’m gonna come back with the latest EVIDENCE of cop killing.

      That’s transparency, and you run a transparent site, right? Not a censorious one?

      You must admit that not all gun owners think like you do. Some of us think for ourselves. Some of us don’t worship gubermint. So you’re gonna have debate…or not.

    2. Ken, your argument is SOOOO lame. Cops risk their lives every day for deserving citizens, as well as undeserving narcissistic a-holes. They have milliseconds to decipher and react to deadly situations while protecting innocent lives and slimming their chances of coming home to their own families. Here’s a thought, I dare you to emerge from your dear old mom’s basement and go for a ride-along with a cop…Chicago preferably but local will do. Then proceed with your tiresome cop-bashing.
