It's not smart to just ignore a cop giving you orders.

When police openly kill citizens as a form of control don't be surprised when citizens with issues openly kill people.

There is no one answer. No magic bullet ( pardon the pun ). Gun control is a good start , but there is a snowflakes chance in hell of that happening in the US.

So, you're an idealist disguised as a rationalist.

So you are insinuating a direct correlation between police using deadly force and citizens committing murder?

What protocol do you suggest the police use when a perp is attacking them or someone else with a weapon other than a firearm? You mentioned gun control, but how is that relevant to your argument that the police shouldn't use deadly force when a firearm is not involved?.

Just asking.

Especially when he/she is pointing a gun at you.

Im sorry but thats murder!!??

the guy posed no threat after seeing that picture clear second video.. he was walking down the pavement turned to say something to the cop who shouldn't of been so close.. and then BAM - gunsmoke and a dead Chicano.

That one cop should not of been that close to him until back up arrived who had working/correct gear to handle the situation. What if the guy who was shot was on drugs? mentally ill? or drunk even? better yet , what if he had children and a wife? DEAD because those cops couldn't do what they sore they would - PROTECT and SERVE.

Thank the lord for that not every cop in the UK has a gun, only certain highly skilled trained cops can only carry/use them.

example - http://www.documentingreality.com/fo...ll-man-143076/

lawful shooting - he ran at the cops after he was given more than ample request to drop the knife, hell the cop who shot him begged him to drop it LOL.

My 2 cents or 2 pence.

Ah yes, another self righteous Brit, come to bash American law enforcement whilst having no idea what's he's talking about. Please watch the first video and look closely. Please read the police department's press statement. Oh, and please read all the prior posts. I think you'll get a clearer picture of what happened. Then again...what the fuck am I saying? You're not going to get it anyway. Just go ahead and believe what you already think...who cares, I'm tired now.
