omg who hires these people?! this is an outrage!
Is it just me or did she also say "We have a glock...deagle"?
I really don't understand people who don't have any simple knowledge of firearms in that line of work.
It doesn't take an expert to figure out what it is, especially if she's the one who handles the evidence and writes the reports on them.

dont forget the AK47 shoots 7.62x39 Exploding baby cop killer knife bullets while the MAC10 shoots .45ACP Armor Piercing Corrosive Orphanage destroyer.

meanwhile the desert eagle shoots a high velocity 50 deagle brand beagle eagle hollow tip round
what a dumb bitch :v:
She got the Glock right
But that's probably because she carries a Glock
This is why I hate political correctness because people like her will get on a police force, somewhere they absolutely do not belong

who cares about what name the gun has lol
besides people on the internet who jerk off over guns but that's obvious
I think she read that off the bag.

Well if she is taking in evidence she should probably understand what the name of a common firearm is.
How do these people even get jobs if they can't identify weapons

they could call it "a gun that's a bit bigger than a handgun" and it would make zero difference
it's like that "journalist's guide to firearms", the average person doesn't give a fuck what the gun is called, it's irrelevant. they all do the same thing with slightly different sizes and ballistics.

The smallest detail like the actual make and model of the firearm can actually make a huge difference in crime scenes you know, like I'd get what you're saying if this was just some random asshole off the street but this is a woman in charge of handling crime scene evidence.

And not to mention the AK47 is a pretty iconic firearm to almost everyone, even if you didn't know it's name you'd be able to identify it just by looking at it as "That gun all the nasty russians use in my favorite action movies/videogames."

Yeah because it's totally irrelevant if a crime occurs, police find 7.62mm casings, and then some jack ass files a Mac10 as an AK47.

crime scene is different from a tv show or a newspaper clipping

so? she looks like a technician to me. technicians don't solve crimes. she could call it a space-blaster and it wouldn't change any investigation.

icon refers to looks, not name

yeah that is pretty irrelevant. you have no way to prove that a specific casing came from a specific gun. not to mention the person in charge of evidence doesn't do anything except administration.
you sure love to argue thisispain
[QUOTE=wallyroberto_2;37708463]you sure love to argue thisispain[/QUOTE]
it takes two people to argue
Oh jeez it went from laugh at lady to debate over things that have nothing to do with our actual lives.
thisispain does that
[QUOTE=thisispain;37708467]it takes two people to argue[/QUOTE]
it only takes one to be an idiot
[QUOTE=Zally13;37708500]it only takes one to be an idiot[/QUOTE]
because i don't think this is a big deal?
i'm sorry if we don't see eye to eye about the importance of a name given to a gun
it's more of the fact it's her job
it doesn't make any difference that she got it wrong, but if I was an employer and I was hiring border security dudes, I'd want to make sure they could identify things correctly. It doesn't make any difference, no, but she should know
we don't know what her job is
doesn't stop everyone from jerking each other off about a gun's name
"oh look *person* doesn't know what an AK47 looks like, what a retard!" and it happens in more than one thread.
good job guys you know an insignificant fact about a gun, i'm sure that makes you more intelligent than someone who probably does do their job properly considering they're on TV and still have their job.
get mad
