This is why Police should have revolvers.
Give them an automatic with a 17 round magazine and they'll blaze away hoping 1/10 might hit, with the result in this case that all the nine bystanders hit were hit by the Police trying to take someone down at point blank range.

Or you could actually train the police to shoot properly. Also, enforce a fitness standard, because way to many cops look more like pigs than people.

I guess if two trained police officers managed to hit 9 innocent people in a panic, your average citizen would hit even more people if they were in the middle of a mass shooting in a populated place.

Like I said, their "training" is extremely inadequate. And yes, your average citizen, who neither owns nor has ever fired a handgun, would be even worse off in such a situation.

Many cops don't really shoot as often as you'd think they would/should. What is required varies, but I believe 1 to 4 times a year is common for shooting qualification. While that may not be bad for actually qualifying, practice should be every week or every other week. I've heard that a lot cops only practice shooting before they go up for qualification. If that's the case, they're not practicing enough.

It depends on the cop and on the citizen.  There are some people I would rather trust than your average cop!  There are also some cops I would trust over a lot of people.  The shooting enthusiast who takes multiple classes and practices weekly or more often is probably going to be FAR more proficient than the average LEO.  On the other hand, the guy who thought carrying a gun would be cool, and last went to the range 4 months ago probably won't be that capable.

They need to:

Give the plod proper training and make them practice.

Not give them high capacity autos.

Pick one.

I agree with this. Most officers are required to qualify yearly, but have no other training time assigned to them for firearms. It is totally up to the individual officer in most cases on if he practices regularly or not.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - An early-morning shooting at a Pathmark supermarket in New Jersey has left at least three people dead, including the suspected gunman, local media said on Friday.

Shots were heard inside the supermarket in Old Bridge, about 35 miles from New York City, just before 4 a.m. EDT as employees were preparing to open the store for business, said the local ABC television affiliate.

Police found two windows bashed in, the station reported.

Old Bridge Mayor Owen Henry described the suspected shooter as a disgruntled worker, the Star-Ledger newspaper said.

"This is the worst phone call a mayor can receive," Henry told the newspaper. "You can prepare for these things but you can't prevent them."
This one has to count as a mass shooting.

So so far we have had 2 almost mass shootings and 1 actual mass shooting in 3 weeks after the Sikh mass shooting.

Yup it counts as a mass shooting
OLD BRIDGE — Three people are dead after an employee at the Old Bridge Pathmark armed with an AK-47 assault rifle and an automatic pistol opened fire inside the store early this morning, killing two young store workers before turning one of the weapons on himself, Middlesex County Prosecutor Bruce Kaplan said.

The two victims, an 18-year-old woman and a 24-year-old man, were both from the township, Kaplan said.

Kaplan said the shooter, identified as a 23-year-old township man, appeared to have been a former member of the military.

The man had apparently finished his shift, but returned about 3:30 a.m. armed with the weapons and multiple magazines. He started firing randomly, hitting the two employees, Kaplan said.

All three of the dead were assigned to the overnight shift at the store, on Route 9 near the Sayreville border.

"I don't believe they were specifically targeted. I believe everyone was targeted,” Kaplan said.
Oh and in before someone 'cleverly' points out that the Ak-47 was actually a WASR semi auto that looked like an AK-47

Deputies have killed a man suspected of shooting at residents, cars and SWAT team members in a wooded area north of Seattle, a sheriff's spokeswoman said.

A standoff late Sunday ended when deputies shot and killed the gunman, said Shari Ireton, a spokeswoman for the Snohomish County Sheriff's Office.

Authorities in Arlington, Washington, were still investigating the shootings and had not released the suspect's name, Ireton said Monday.

Deputies began combing the community of about 18,000 people Sunday afternoon after a man said he'd been shot in the leg near his home. The wounded man told investigators that he had been hearing gunshots for about 10 minutes in the "wooded, largely rural area," said Lt. Steve Dittoe of the Snohomish County Sheriff's Office.

"Immediately the officers ... recognized that there was someone in the woods shooting at either vehicles or people," Dittoe said Sunday.

A man randomly firing at people from a wooded area has to count as a mass shooting. Or at least a sorta.

MONTREAL - One man was killed and a second person was injured Tuesday when a man opened fire outside a Parti Quebecois victory rally at a downtown nightclub.

Police said Wednesday morning they believe the suspect, a 62-year-old man arrested at the scene, acted alone. Cops seized two guns from him and are searching his car for more. They would not comment on a possible motive.

A Molotov cocktail ignited an intense fire at a rear entrance of the Metropolis club as the attacker tried to barge into the building on Tuesday after the PQ won a minority government.

A loud sound could be heard inside the Metropolis around midnight, prompting bodyguards to hustle premier-elect Pauline Marois off the stage during her nationally-televised victory speech before hundreds of supporters.

"He entered (the club) through the back and fired gunshots, we don't know how many for now," said police spokesman Dany Richer on Tuesday night. "Two people were shot. These two people were transported to hospital."

The 45-year-old man who was killed is believed to have worked on the PQ campaign, possibly as a technician on the party bus. Police said his next of kin has yet to be notified.

A man in his 20s was also injured. He was in stable condition as of Wednesday morning. A third man in his 30s was transported to hospital, suffering from shock.

The suspect, a heavy-set man wearing a mask and dark clothing, was led into a police cruiser. He had been subdued by one of Marois's armed bodyguards.

CBC reports he shouted in French at TV cameras: "The English are waking up!"
apparently he was using a Vz. 58, one of the only "assault rifles" available in Canada. RCMP probably going to ban that one by name now.

Also, this is almost definitely politically motivated and not simply a result of mental illness, it seems pretty evident.
