Is the redshirt guy trying to get redshirted? Picking up that gun while police is on the way could easily lead to misunderstandings.

Yeah, kick it away, stand next to it, maybe put your foot on top of it to secure it if there are other people milling around, but never pick it up, not even to clear it unless the danger is extreme and imminent.

Knowing the condition of the gun (loaded, not loaded, one in the pipe, slide locked etc) contributes heavily to the prosecution, and picking it up contaminates evidence and could get you shot.

That being said, if the guy breaks free and is coming for the gun, pick it up and blat him in the head.

Here in Denmark we had a once-in-a-blue-moon shooting occur in the shopping mall called "Field's".

Police geared with MP5's arrived within 10 minutes and barely waited at all storming into the shopping center. Other armed police were actively doing evacuation duty.

A sniper in a helicopter eventually saw the shooter trying to escape the shopping center through a utility door, and he subsequently got caught.

This happened the same year police in America were seen, fully armed, waiting outside a school because it was "too dangerous" to enter.

doesn't Denmark require national service for two years?

if so, those cops were already better trained than any US cop and it's unfair to compare them.
