Re: Cops Cleared in Deadly Shooting
Who knows if it was a fake gun or a real one. The idiot points the object at the cops, what was he really expecting? But, I also heard many shots after idiot presumably went thud to teh ground. I guess idiot might have lived long enough to move, or twitch, or breathe...or maybe he wanted to pop just one more out. So for the safety of the police, they will shout 1st ask maybe later. But your comment made me think of Amadou Diallo case. Of course the officers in this case were cleared as well. wiki: In the early morning of February 4, 1999, Diallo was standing near his building after returning from a meal. Police officers Edward McMellon, Sean Carroll, Kenneth Boss and Richard Murphy passed by in a Ford Taurus when they thought Diallo matched the description of a now-captured serial rapist and approached him. The officers were in plain clothes. The officers claimed that they loudly identified themselves as NYPD officers and that Diallo ran up the outside steps toward his apartment house doorway at their approach, ignoring their orders to stop and "show his hands". The porch lightbulb was out and Diallo was backlit by the inside vestibule light, showing only a silhouette. Diallo then reached into his jacket and withdrew his wallet. Seeing the suspect holding a small square object, Carroll yelled "Gun!" to alert his colleagues. Believing Diallo had aimed a gun at them at close range, the officers opened fire on Diallo. During the shooting, lead officer McMellon tripped backward off the front stairs, causing the other officers to believe he had been shot. The four officers fired forty-one shots, hitting Diallo nineteen times. The post-shooting investigation found no weapons on Diallo's body; the item he had pulled out of his jacket was not a gun, but a rectangular black wallet. The internal NYPD investigation ruled the officers had acted within policy, based on what a reasonable police officer would have done in the same circumstances with the information they had. The Diallo shooting led to a review of police training policy and the use of full metal jacket (FMJ) bullets. |

Re: Cops Cleared in Deadly Shooting
Wow, you provide one stupid comment after another dusan! Maybe you should follow his example since you seem to praise such actions. Maybe you will have a place on the site just like he did! Anywho, police use firearms for lethal force when it is needed. They dont shoot to wound as that is not what the weapon is for. The guy may have still been pointing the weapon at them even when down. Police are taught to shoot until a threat is neutralized. If that is the entire quantity of the magazine, so be it. |

Re: Cops Cleared in Deadly Shooting
If I'm a cop, and somebody fires at me with what I know to be a gun, Oh hell yes Im gunna unload my whole clip on whomever. When your life flashes before your eyes like that, time is non-existent and thought is replaced by intuition.
