[Hook x2]
Clap
Magic Clap

It's like a hotwire, baby
When we put it together
When the sparks fly
We'll ignite the future forever
This is the last kiss Martin ever gave to Coretta
It's like a paparazzi picture when I flash my Beretta
I got scars on my back
The truth on my tongue
I had the money in my hand when that alarm got rung
We wanna breathe fire and freedom from our lungs
Tell Homeland Security
We are the bomb

[Hook x2]

Hurry up, get in, close the do'
This here the meeting for the overthrow
Waiting on that concrete rose to grow
Doing lines that ain't quotable
Counting up all that dough you owe
You ain't sposed to know its opposable
We are not disposable
Muscle up kid
We got blows to throw
Til the folks have risen
There'll be no decision
We make the motor move
They chauffer driven
Right now we can't shine right like a broken prism
I figured out the 14th is a broke amendment

[Hook x2]

Good evening
Tonight we bring to you
Worn out streets that'll sing to you
.45 shells that'll dance to the beats
Stomachs so loud it'll cancel the speech
Checks that vanish if you blink an eye
Grace getting locked in the clink to die
A salary cap on a birth certificate
Notarized lies that burst in triplicate
Morning prayers for the car to start
A man and a whiskey in a heart-to-heart
Hope in a track suit to flash and run
While agony chases with a badge and gun
Poetry shouted from the squeal of the bus breaks
Hands in the air try to feel for an escape
Flash in my eyes like candid snaps
When we slap back, it's the magic clap

An excellent gun. The design is over 100 years old and still going strong.

Also, why get in shit over copyright using a Glock or Beretta?

I've been reading Ian Fleming's novels lately and I have to question the use of James Bond in support of this cause. Women were highly objectified in the world of James Bond. (Or maybe that's the point and I missed it?)

Thankfully, Craig's facial expression is quite appropriate. I think he's about ready to introduce that obnoxious narrator to the Beretta under his armpit.

Four years ago in Houston I was the victim in a similar incident - as we were leaving a restaurant in the south east side, three "agressive drunks" for no obvious reason started to pummel my car, break off the antenna, and tear off the side mirrors. I was blocked in traffic, with no opportunity to drive away. As kymbos says - Intense. If I had been alone in the car, I wouldn't have been quite so upset. However, my wife and my 4 year old son were in the car with me, both quite hysterical. After that very upsetting event, I don't carry a bat. I carry a Beretta. I don't care about the car, but if anyone harms my family, that's where I draw the line. Why are people such assholes sometimes?

Thanks. I thought I was asking the right guy.

The Maryland State Police are currently issued a Beretta PX4 Storm, but the officer in the video seems to be carrying something of the Beretta type, but I cannot tell. It definetly does not look like a glock which usually have a square slide.

When he holsters the weapon his thumb appears to come up to hit a decocker, which on a Beretta is on the back of the slide and ambidextrous.

I don't know if its standard protocol to have the hammer in ready position, most pistols are double action. However it does appear that he is placing the gun on safe when he holsters the weapon, he is defiantly doing something.

In this case I don't think he needed to draw his weapon. Some will say that's protocol; I say if the perpetrator was not armed then there was no need to present a weapon. In my mind the situation did not scale on the force continuum to have need for a weapon. Maybe soft physical force; the officer jumped straight to lethal force.

Heh, thanks Nordy. You seem to know a lot about handgun training, so if I may ask a question? Does he appear to take the safety off with his left hand immediately after drawing the weapon? Is that procedure, or is the decision to saftey off a separate event?

For those of you out there who ever wanted to become a cop, can you honestly say that the top reason was NOT to be able to pull out a Beretta at any time like Mel Gibson in Lethal Weapon?

I guess some of us actually grow up to be police officers.

I didn't.

Never grew a Riggs mullet either, though.

I suppose that argument would also apply to soldiers following orders at Guantanamo bay, wouldn't it?

I would rely on voting...if I was an idealist; but since I'm not...I rely on a Beretta.

What's hotter is she's carrying a pistol at her hip while she's firing that auto.

Had she emptied the clip, slung the rifle, drawn the beretta, and popped two in it's head, I think some of the men watching may have came.

^ Their shotguns are fucking great. I've borrowed a Beretta 12" a couple of times and it's the best shotgun I've ever used.

One thing: Beretta is a brand of gun, not a model. Beretta makes shotguns as well as handguns. Their shotguns just aren't as well known.

Really expensive shotguns, for the record.

Ha! Yeah, I didn't see it. I was so proud of myself for busting your balls. Oh well. There's always next time!
