History shows when a suspect is confronted by any armed individual (police, security, concealed carry person) they either shoot it out with that person or kill themselves. Either way, the shooting of innocent bystanders must stop. Now, the first officer or two officers on scene will immediately go to confront the shooter. Military tactics work well in this situation. The two man "bounding overwatch" is our response.Records obtained by Judicial Watch also show that Sheriff Israel is the second highest paid of Florida's 67 sheriffs at $186,631 for Fiscal Year 2017/18. The sheriff was eligible for $2,000 in supplemental pay for completion of a 20-hour training course. In 2016, Israel received a warning letter that he had not successfully completed the course and his supplemental pay was being withheld. "These Broward County Sheriff's Office documents obtained by Judicial Watch show that the law enforcement agency failed the victims of the Parkland shooting," said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. "Lives were lost in Parkland because the Sheriff's Office personnel were either poorly trained or failed to follow training protocols."
