Shoot don't shoot scenarios/simulations

And our dogs, we're tired of them shooting our dogs also.

Unless it's a pit bull.

When I was going through the POST Academy, we went through the simulator during firearms training. They intentionally amped us up before going in one by one to have our adrenaline flowing. We each had numerous situations presented on life size monitors and they graded both on response times and correct reactions to each scenario. It gets really intense because you're told you're being recorded and at the end you were told whether you were correct, dead, or being arrested due to your actions.

I did very well on the simulators and thankfully never had to shoot anyone during my career.

It dat herb, brah.

Of course when you add escalation of force to the mix, things get more complicated.

A dog's attitude is all based on how you raise them.
The same goes with people.

On both accounts you are wrong. Mental instability can be derived from numerous factors regarding environment, nurture and nature. Naturally speaking, there are humans who are more prone to violence than others simply as a genetic predisposition.

The difference for dogs, specifically, is that there are a few breeds who have been bred to be violent for a couple of centuries. It's kind of the same affect you see with, say, Jamaicans who seem to always win footraces for sprinting, or Ethiopians who always win distant running.

They have studies in mice where fear is ''Transferred'', much like when a person sees the holes in a lotus seed -- they mimic many dangerous bugs that have a lot of eyes and so we have a transferred (unlearned) fear of this.

Sexually it manifests as dominance, and emotionally certain types of people can be more prone to aggression.

Showing soft cuddly pitbulls to everyone is like showing Nazis eating with their families, the numbers are not exaggerated and they disproportionately kill their owners, the children of their owners, and randomly attack people.

You can see it in smaller breeds, but they often don't have the potential to kill you -- whereas Pitbulls do.

A leisurely stroll through Liveleak whilst searching for ''Faces of Pitbulls'' may or may not change your mind, but it is absolutely certain that some breeds are simply naturally more aggressive than others in spite of upbringing.

Im shooting every moving motherfricker in that simulation.
