Breaking! St Louis City Officer shoots suspect in N St Louis. 8/19/2014 | |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 46124531  United States08/19/2014 02:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 46124531 Also, there's pepper spray available to "civilians" that would drop someone...why are the cops using a combination of that and tasers.... or at the least RUBBER BULLETS??????????? Sprays dont stop people on drugs rubber bullets and bean bag rounds dont stop people on drugs. You got 4 seconds to save your life or limb, what do you do? A taser is a LETHAL force, just hold the button down long enough.... If it fucks up, then the cop has a GUN as a BACKUP.... Also, why not shoot the guy in the leg or something, why the HEADSHOT...always the HEADSHOT.... Go take a ccw class. You aren't in a movie, you shoot center mass ( the largest target). Or I guess panic shoot headshots too. Watch the show COPS from the 80's....those guys were awesome....they could take people down in a second WITHOUT LETHAL FORCE!!!! |

Are police in St Louis now not allowed to do their job? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 59700925  their job is to serve and protect not kill and incarcerate no one should ever have to die over something as meaningless as money or material possessions I wonder how it is possible for someone to be so empty-headed. Then I look at your avatar and I understand. There is, obviously, a vacancy. |

A knife coming at you at less than 21 feet can arrive in 3 seconds and is considered deadly force which can be met with deadly force , police , private citizen whoever.....get a clue peanut gallery .....no wonder there was "white flight" there. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 59700925 their job is to serve and protect not kill and incarcerate no one should ever have to die over something as meaningless as money or material possessions sorry Rev, a place of business is private property too. If a thug came in my business or home, carrying a knife, baseball bat or just looking ugly and I deduce he or she, wishes to harm me over anything I own, I will shoot them. If they die, it's on them not me "It's a friendly friendly world" (Andy Kaufman) Calm seas do not a sailor make, Nor easy horses, a horseman. And Jesus was a sailor when he walked upon the water And he spent a long time watching from his lonely wooden tower and when He could be certain only drowning men could see Him- Leonard Cohen |

Are police in St Louis now not allowed to do their job? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 59700925 No, they're not. That's what this is about. It's not about racism or some NWO-style police state. It's about thugs wanting to be able to thug with impunity, and their "community" standing behind them because, in the 'hood, the terrorists have won and snitches get stitches. It wouldn't have mattered if this suspect had had a gun and opened fire on the cop. Dead thug=free pass to break things and steal stuff in St. Louis now. I'm sure that it was an unplanned event. However, there are elements who will take advantage of this to stir up more civil unrest. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 60275215 United States08/19/2014 03:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A gun versus a knife??? Isn't that a little un-matched....couldn't the cop have used a little less lethal force???? I mean come on... Nobody is guaranteed to have a gun to defend themselves with numbnutz? The public is disarmed, the flatfoot is protecting them from a madman. You have a problem with deadly force you need to volunteer to spread peace on the streets and not hide in your alarmed home. |
| Jack Stowage User ID: 17167422 United States08/19/2014 03:01 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It is very easy to sit in front of your computer in the comfort of your moms basement and spend an hour analyzing an event that lasted three or four seconds. John Wayne may have wrestled the lknife away from the robber but real life isn't the movies. If you commit an armed robbery expect the cops to shoot you as that is the risk you take. |
