[quote="newt.":d461a]1. lol I think you watch to many cartoons.[/quote:d461a]

What the fuck are you talking about?

[quote="newt.":d461a]2. the terrorists opened our eyes, now if we see someone running towards a train are inital thought could be that they are a suicide bomber, and not just someone late for their train.[/quote:d461a]

So I guess the terrorist DID win?

[quote="newt.":d461a]3. multiple police, multiple bullets? I dunno maybe? maybe alittle trigger happy? wait not trigger happy just worried (in the "heat of things") that he might still be alive/or have the ability to do something.[/quote:d461a]

When your shot in the head at point blank range once, your not doing much. These police officers were irresponsible.

[quote="newt.":d461a]also 5 times is all you hippy fucks have, get something new...[/quote:d461a]

...

plzdie:

Eight Ace has diplomatic immunity, don't mess with heem.

The police acted improperly..period. Stop defending them. Period. Poiseidon, you are just in shock after the first bombing. BUT you have to get your fears out of the way when you do YOUR FUCKING JOB as a police officer. You have to be able to seperate your paranoid self and the cool headed logical police officer that you ARE !. This act was shameful. Yet you all let your paranoid selves take control and you support these rash actions...... 7 times in the head and 1 time in the shoulder is not policing....The my freinds is an execution and victory for ones own over zealous/fearful self.

Shit happens. Does arguing over the injustice of it all make you all feel important?

I believe you're looking for the "fave pizza topping" thread?

loooo

I'm hungry enough without that thread spank:

You're missing the bigger picture. He wouldn't have been shot in the head 5 times while being restrained if he didn't RUN to begin with oOo:

And the whole mugging thing is just a really bad ironic mishap. All you badasses can say what you want, but if someone pulls a gun on me (no matter what they are wearing) I'm sure as hell not going to run away.

one shot in the head is going to put his lights out, even if he was restraining. I really doubt he was restraining through the first 2-3 shots

Sorry that's not what I meant, I meant being restrained then shot

He was running from guys dressed in regular clothing, not police in uniform.

Vance, after they rob you, then they ask you to kneel down and bow your head. Are you going to cooperate then?

1) STFU!

2) Im not in shock, I didnt have an relatives in the london bombings, this has practically nothing to do with me - apart from i live in the same country.

3) "Yet you all let your paranoid selves take control and you support these rash actions...... "
Did you actually read my posts?? I said in earlier posts that I agreed that the amount of shots fired was excessive and shouldnt have happened!

4) My posts are directed towards arguing that these police 'should' have shot the guy, innocent or not based on the days events.

5) If you want to argue with someone - get some fucking facts and give me a fucking reason as to why they shouldnt have shot they guy

6) Yes im defending my police force... Yes they made a mistake by shooting the wrong guy (several times)... but they caught the bombers in LESS THAN A MONTH!! They did a fucking good job to manage to do that!

I still don't like the fact that innocent lives are a justified consequence of catching bombers...why not just murder everyone...then you can guarentee you caught and killed em.

im pretty sure they identified themselves as police officers , the dude made a bad choice and he died for it .. end of fucking story

Not according to the latest reports.

what latest reports ?

Back on page 2 Mr Buttocks put up [url=http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,2087-1715340,00.html:7abb0]this[/url:7abb0] link.

[quote="Mr.Buttocks":5fa65]He was running from guys dressed in regular clothing, not police in uniform.[/quote:5fa65]
I didn't say anything about clothing. They have fucking guns.

At this point I know they're not cops, any simpleton can realize this. I don't know what I do, and nobody here can say either, until they are in that situation.

Anything poseidon has said, i completely agree.

Menezes wasn't carrying a rucksack, or bag, or anything like that. Nor were there any "wires" or "assorted shit" anywhere on his person. Also, contrary to initial reports, he wasn't wearing a heavy padded jacket.

My apologies if my info was incorrect. My understanding of the situation was that he was wearing an unusually heavy coat for Summer, and on account of his occupation, had wires and the like protruding from a bag

The article said he was on the way to repair something (i forgot what) yet he didnt take any equipment needing a rucksack? eek:

He was on his way to fit a fire alarm. He had left his stuff with a work colleague the night before, supposedly.

Sounds like a nice guy. Too bad.
