Re: More cop killing goodness....
[ QUOTE ]
It is their JOB to sometimes be in harms way. Sorry, that was on the application. [/ QUOTE ] Their life is still on the line. They are human beings and would rather live then die, so when they are storming a house where a criminal is known to be armed, they are going to take the proper precautions. [ QUOTE ] Also, with all the "training" these idiots receive, why is it that time-after-time we hear about how "70 shots" (example) where fired. These fucktards need to empty multiple clips every [censored] time they discharge their weapons?? [/ QUOTE ] I won't refute that this case was retarded, however, there are bad apples that come with anything. Not every cop in the world is an idiot like that. [ QUOTE ] Face it, we simply do not spend enough money on the police. If these idiots had proper pay & training, this type of [censored] wouldn't happen every [censored] day. [/ QUOTE ] I don't claim to know how much money each state spends on the police. However, most police are not idiots, but they are the only police that you will hear about.

Re: More cop killing goodness....
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] but one of the important lessons to take from this is that when confronted with somebody who can legally make you dead, don't [censored] around. [/ QUOTE ] Was there anything in the story that suggested that the suspect "[censored]" around? The best I can find is he might have had a controller in his hand (which sounds like arse-covering to me) and that he didn't answer the door promptly enough. [/ QUOTE ] If they had to knock in the door, I would wager yes. The story linked hardly provides enough context and information for everybody be be assuming the cops [censored] up.

"Roommate Mike Rhoton said Strickland was unarmed, but may have been holding a video game controller when he went to the door as it was bashed in by officers." [/ QUOTE ] Maybe he was playing duck hunt.

Not even enough to justify weak, blame-the-victim "lessons".

Re: More cop killing goodness....
BCPVP,
If you're taking what I said as "blame the victim", you're missing my [censored] point all together. It's not about blaim, it's about taking what you've learned and using it was an object lesson moving forward.

I agree with By-Tor here. Most cops are [censored] who need to assert their power. [censored] the police, [b]until something goes wrong and I need to call them! [/ QUOTE ]
