[QUOTE="Dave70968, post: 3149621, member: 13624"] Just to play devil's advocate... Put yourself in the officer's position. You're in a gunfight, in an area you don't control. It's dark. Suddenly, from up above you, more gunfire erupts. You're already under serious stress, and now there's a second, unknown shooter. Who is he shooting at? You have a split-second to decide friend-or-foe, and your original target appears to be disengaging. Do you trust that the unknown is friendly, or do you engage the second unknown? Joining in the fight seems like an excellent way to catch a couple of rounds yourself, get a bystander injured from stray rounds, or at the very least, distract the officer at a critical moment, potentially leading to injury for [I]him[/I].
