MO - I say forget these scenarios and put their asses right out there where the real bullets are flying! And out of 60 invited, only 18 bothered to show up, yet the ones that did not, will be the first ones shooting off their mouths the cops should have done things diffrent - State Rep. Mike Leara, R-South County, had searched his suspect twice when he put him in the back of a police cruiser. “You sure you don’t want to check him again?” asked Officer Nick Manasco. “No, I got him,” Leara said. “He’s clean.” A few seconds later, Leara had a gunshot wound to the chest. The gun fired only blanks. The “suspect” was St. Louis police Officer Brandon Johnson. And the scene was part of a “police officer for a day” event hosted Monday by the St. Louis Police Officers’ Association on the parking lot of the United Steelworkers union hall. Leara was among a group of elected officials who took part in the event, which began with officers giving the group a crash course in a classroom setting on basic police academy training and tactics. The police union invited about 60 people, including all of St. Louis’ aldermen, civil service commission members, local state representatives and senators to the event. In all, 18 people attended, said Jeff Roorda, business manager for the police association.
