Got to love the late night info commercial.
A bad crocodile dundee try's to rob average Joe citizen then gets shot by the LEO.
If only he had on of these life saving devices.
Got to love the marketing.

What is wrong with this, let me count the ways....

1) Someone brought a knife to a gun fight

2) Someone forgot the golden rule of never pointing a gun at anyone they DO NOT intend to shoot, meaning turning around with a raised gun at the officer, nice job keeping it pointed at the BG

3) The Officer did not immediately take control of the situation, the BG spoke first, then the armed citizen

Look forward to learning more from other's evaluations.
Guns don't kill people, bullets kill people.

Where is Ron Popeil when you really need him?

Can you get a free set of Ginsu knives with that?

I would guess that a cop WOULD hesitate to shoot some one holding up what looks like a badge.
but in the REAL world the woman would have been on the phone with the 911 operator for a while before Cops arrived, Cop is more likely to listen to the well dressed guy by the nice car than the guy in the "fishing get up" in an under ground garage,
and the cop is more likely to give commands like "put down the gun" than just start blasting.

Most of the scuttlebutt about "badges" for CCW holders is negative. But the video is not quite accurate in cop pulls up assesses the situation in 2 seconds and shoots the guy in the suit, without ordering even 1 verbal command to drop the weapon.

Or the Good Guy not putting the pistol on the roof of the car when they pulled up, (he was that close), and putting his hand in the air.

Or his GF/wife, not detailing the events of who is the BG and who is the GG.

etc,...etc,...etc,...
Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

 Problem with a badge like that is it opens you up to a charge of impersonating a Cop.
