What would Andy of Mayberry done with a shoplifter of some booze who’d locked herself in her car?
Would he let Barney break the glass?
Or hand Barney a bullet for his pistol?
Or would Andy say I’ve got your license number, and I’ll come by your house later and we’ll talk?
Policemen are supposed to keep the peace.
Not shoot in a crowded parking lot.
That was TV. In real life...When I was growing up in and around Chicago (before there were cameras everywhere) you did exactly as the police instructed and you did it quickly or they beat the **** out of you. Sometimes they beat the **** out of you anyway.
You just knew that making any aggressive move would get you shot to pieces.
