Default Bullying desguised (badly) as precaution

As others have indicated, double tap refers to two shots fired body center
mass in rapid succession, followed up by one shot to the head (in case there
is body armor in play). This is standard defensive shooting methodology.
I've carried concealed for over thirty years, and fortunately have never had
to draw a weapon in defense, and hope I never have to. I have had several
times that I have had to "consider" it. If I was confronted with an enraged
man with a club (technically assault), coming at my daughter and myself, I
would have to "consider" my options, before battery resulted from the
assailant.

It doesn't sound like it got close to that point, only pointing out that if
the mall cop, (who I don't "believe" has any more legal standing than any
one else), kept coming with a club, then someone who could defend
themselves, may just do that.

A couple other points, it could be that he was just following orders from
his management. It could be that he really thought he was doing good for his
country; just misguided. It could be, like many sheeple, he lives in fear of
the boogeyman. Or he could just be a dickhead.

If I was there with my daughter, and he started coming at me and my

daughter
with a baton, I would have to consider doing a double tap, and one.

Although
your way was for the best.


Enlighten the group, as to what a "double tap" is, please?
