But if you want to believe that there's no cause-and-effect - psychological or otherwise - between the N.H. incident and the apparent choice by a lot of LAPD rank-and-file cops to switch to carrying 45 Smiths (yeah, admittedly a number still carry Berettas), feel free.
What I said if there was a "cause and effect" between N. Hollywood and some LAPD officers switching to .45s because the 9x19 "failed," it didn't make any sense (logically or ballistically). The fact the officers were armed with 9x19 Berettas had absolutely nothing to do with problems experienced by LAPD during N. Hollywood. It was only when the SWAT teams were deployed with rifles (not their 1911 handguns) was the problem resolved.
If some officers took advantage of a policy change and switched to .45s after N. Hollywood, is one thing, To imply (or maybe lead others to believe) that officers switched to the .45 because 9x19 "failed" during N. Hollywood is wrong.
