        Story from Stripes inbound. The Navy can't confirm Zamarripa served in Iraq per releasable info. His service shows a posting in Bahrain.

        He did receive the Iraq Campaign Medal, but that award can go to troops outside the country. A news story puts him in the Persian Gulf in 04

        @ChiefVolfan615 You could tell in the audio of shots. Controlled, deliberate rate of fire. Told a friend last night I bet he's military.

        @HerbieTeope @ChiefVolfan615 noticed police need training on suppresive fire, too many successive shots from handguns to move effectively.

        @RednG0ld @HerbieTeope the odds will not be in their favor. Any military personnel has far more combat training than a Reg cop

        @ChiefVolfan615 @HerbieTeope as a prior MP I did joint ops with LE; outside of SWAT you are correct.

        @broncosfriars @Malcahshop @AlexHortonTX Yes but they tend to respect authority, especially NRA members. Have police switched his motive?

        @broncosfriars @Malcahshop (ie he wanted the police to stop "wasting time" with BLM, but they've not given him that satisfaction)

        @AlexHortonTX it's sad when POC who have SERVED THEIR COUNTRY still feel the sting of racism and still don't feel free. Nothing protects us.
