US Cops Shoot Man While Girlfriend Watches (Vid)
 

Are you a moron? You post a title which implies the cops were out of line to shoot the guy.. Umm guess what smart guy don't bring a knife to a gun fight and expect to win.

what a dumbass

that guy was a idiot

LoL don't be an Idiot.
Cops played it well they even tried to pepper the fucker first.

Stop trying to create false drama where there is none.

Thats crazy... but look at the bright side, she's single again!

That guy must have been drunk

Got to admit he was an idiot and the police were trigger happy, a shot in the leg or a baton across his head would of stopped him.

Well with all the U.S bashers on their board you sure played up the topic as being one. So you can't really blame someone for getting sick of the attacks.. :error

baton/shot to leg = lawsuit
pepper spray didnt do anything, doubt he would of stopped with a shot to the leg or a baton

this isnt lala land, when someone rushes you with a knife you dont look for a knife to be fair, you shoot the fucker dead

I'm a Candian hater ;)

To be honest i just copied the Title from the Vid

True I just Counted 8 Shots

8 shots
4 cops
2 shots each

math is fun :thumbsup

Sorry, but that statement is WRONG. I used to be a reserve deputy sherriff with the maricopa county sherriff's office. They did EXACTLY what they were supposed to do. One is NOT expected to die while doing your job just to protect an idiot that wants to harm/kill you.

As for the baton, he can easily get close enough to get you with the knife if you try to use the baton. Are YOU going to take that chance? I wouldn't.

Also, the problen with the shot to the leg theory, is that unless you hit him in the bone (a target about an inch and a half across), he isn't going to stop. When he is six feet away, it takes about one second for him to get to you with that knife; he is lunging towards you, and if you miss the bone in his leg, (easy to miss), he will get to you with the knife. Again, are you dumb enough to take that chance?

If the answer is yes... good luck surviving your first year as a police officer. :2 cents:

Hmm,,ok

what if he would have thrown the knife at you, lot of good your baton would do you.

what a fool...

ahahahahaaa that was fucking AWESOME....

oooooooooooooooooooo shotty blast KAPLOW!

he deserved it.

totally justified

You run at cops with a knife, what do you expect them to do ? laugh like a girl while he stabs you, er no, you shoot the motha fucka

You do know some people live in lala land

He must have been on some crazy shit.

good, one more idiot off the streets

:1orglaugh :thumbsup

He had a knife and he run to the cops with it of course they were gonna shoot him...

Sure was!!! That is suicide by cops...

B-

they were just giving him some vitamins for his lead deficiency.. i really don't see the problem.

Cops did what they were trained to do. A few more shots than nessesary? (maybe) but after he rushed he got popped by a shotgun and a pistol so he was dead anyway.

they were nice enough to give him the chance to be normal and put the knife down.

:1orglaugh

It's called paranoia ..... when a title with no US mention becomes " USA haters " ....

Obviously, anything reported to you that is " unconventional " and done by americans escapes your comprehension and becomes " USA Hate "....

:1orglaugh

deserved :thumbsup

Suicide by cop is pretty rare in Canada... they'd just find a way to take him down without killing him.

yeah you are definitly going to lose that battle

Yeah. I'm not saying that what the cops did was bad. But won't a bullet or two in the leg stop the guy no problem?

They should try to understand that the fellow probably had a difficult childhood and engage him in therapeutic dialogue.

Shooting a moving target in the leg only happens in the movies. It's simply too difficult a shot to pull off when your life is in danger.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

I'm reposting what I posted above....

ahahha classic

another fine example of someone who shouldn't have ever survived birth

it happens more than you think, cops are fucking retards and should die more often.

This is not the movies. Cops aren't taught to shoot people in the leg during confrontations.

My sentiments exactly:glugglug

Officer Dr. Phil :1orglaugh

well, that's what you get when you run at someone waving a large knife. i would have shot him too.


i hate cops and how they abuse their authority as much as the next guy, but those officers were completly justified in their actions.

TASER, they use that a lot more often now

From the looks of the video they didn't have a whole lot of time.
They went from the chase to a guy fleeing to him running directly at them with a knife all in a matter of seconds.

now, many police forces have "less than lethal" ways of ending such a standoff. bean bag shotguns etc. while the use of "less than lethal" weapons would have saved this guy's life, the officer's had no other choice here. deal with it.

Natural selection at it's finest there.

crazy people :upsidedow
