Ramiro Ramirez Shooting - Used Candy Rosario As Human Shield

Greenville, SC - Greenville county deputies were forced to engage a suspect in a worst-case scenario gunfight last month, when the suspect used a 25-year-old woman as a human shield. Deputies responded to a domestic violence incident on July 14 where 34-year-old Ramiro Ramirez was chasing 25-year-old Candy Rosario on busy U.S. Highway 25. The two had been in a romantic relationship. As soon as the deputies arrived, Ramirez opened fire on them, using Rosario as a human-shield. Deputies tried to pick out shots where they could with a small margin for error.

As the gunfight continued on, Ramiro Ramirez fatally shot Candy Rosario (the shot is blurred out in the video out of respect for her family.) The deputies responded by shooting until Ramirez was dead. An autopsy later revealed that the fatal shot was self-inflicted, with the coward killing himself after shooting Rosario. "He came to kill that woman," Sheriff Will Lewis said. "He shot her like a dog on the side of the road."

If only you were there, things would've been different. You would have had time to demonstrate well placed, precision marksmanship under stress and singlehandedly combat the cartels and stem the flow of illicit narcotics.

Insufferable douche

LMPD doesn't issue rifles because the city is run by left-tards who think it's militarization of police. Obviously rifles provide superior capabilities for any kind of active shooter. You can't always wait for SWAT to show up.
