This week's episode of CBS's S.W.A.T. made the ridiculous claim that "sensible gun control" would stop guns being aimed at cops, ignoring the fact that a majority of criminals use illegally acquired weapons.

In the episode, "Crisis Actor," (https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/123729-s05e06-crisis-actor/?do=getNewComment) on Friday, November 12, armed gunmen storm the set of an Alex-Jones style show that spread a false story claiming a school shooting of kindergartners was a hoax.

Parents of the dead children, and a parent-sympathizer named Arnold (Joshua Dov), attack the set of the show and threaten guests with guns. One of the guests, Andrea (Ellie Araiza), shoots at Arnold and is injured as a result before S.W.A.T. arrives on the scene to de-escalate the situation.

S.W.A.T. team members Chris (Lina Esco) and Deac (Jay Harrington) later discuss what happened at the studio.
