Re: Police chase
I know! Its a play on words to justify thier actions and to amp up the other officers. He never hit one of them (from what I saw) they hit him - which is totally what they should do to disable him.
They knew he wasnt a danger or they never would have goten out of thier cars. Have you ever watched a cop get out and run into the live of fire when they knew he was armed? NO! they take cover and take aim like they should. They knew he was just trying to run and wasnt going to really hurt them so they didnt get him boxed in and he kept evading and then it was all over when the one cop emptied his clip into an unarmed man.
But your right Dennis, its easy for me to sit here on the side lines and call shots of rights and wrongs as the rage probably would have taken anyone over by that point. But again, I dont think he ever intentionally tried to ram or hit any of the cops. But I cant see the whole vid but a majority of the action.
I had a neighbor in Plano TX once, and while they were out of town a friend stopped by to feed the dog and let him out. When leaving they forgot to secure the front door and it was left adjar. The security alarm went off and the local police responded where they were greeted by a old yellow lab. He growled at them as they made thier way to the house front door and 2 officers unloaded thier guns on the famliys pet which was a 10 yr old sweet yellow lab who only growled at them in defence of his residence. He never charged or anything just growled and they emptied two clips into him just because they "felt endangered".
They could have called animal control or sprayed him with pepper spray (as they had it on them and was later questioned as to why they didnt use the peppey spray) and they said they felt "eminently endangered". Needless to say they family was devistated when they came home to find the family pet had been slaughtered.

That being said, police officers regardless of training, are human just like you and I. They feel rage, anger and even racism. Some can control it, some can't. They have a very stressful job and put their asses on the line more in one day than some of us do in a lifetime.
If I was on that guy's hood, I would have shot it up and killed him too.
Because by that point, rage would have taken over.

Pepper spray on the lab would have been more than sufficient. But I think those police officers needed a better "Wow" factor. That's sad.
Just as we have pedophiles corrupting the Catholic priesthood, we sure as hell have pigs and corrupts that do not belong behind a police badge.
If I was a cop, I would be considered a pig. I'd taze you just for looking at me sideways.

Re: Police chase
Ya know I myself discuss this with my cop cousins all the time where as they dont put up with sheat and dont hesitate to put the smak down on someone who is disrespectful to them. And I would have to say myself that I would do the same (as in beat the crap out of those who deserve it or spay them from head to toe with pepper spray. But when you ask them about shooting someone - thats a whole different mentality and conversation. They really never want to be faced with that situation and are not anxious for the opportunity. They are honorable guys, and on countless situations have pulled over drunks who were appologetic and humble and they simply drove them home or had someone come get them for a safe passage home.
Last week, my woman got hungry for some fast food (late night) and we had a pig follow us out of our neighborhood, down the street 3 miles, through the Taco Bell drive through and once we left the drive through got on our way home followed us right on our tail the whole way home. As we were pulling into our driveway he hit the lights and did nothing but harrass us! My wife and 14 yr old daughter was with us and he had us all get out of the car (the girls were embarassed as they were in their PJs) as he searched the entire Hummer for anything and everything to justify any citation he could find. Once he was done I asked him why? He said I was driving suspiciosly........ P I G S! Of course he found nothing to justify wirting us up.
Remember, it takes a punk 6 months of cop school to fawk your life up with false charges, and it takes an attorney 6 years of collegeto get you out of trouble and worse a judge to make final descisions as you life hangs in the balance, which requires no educaiton at all to be a judge.

The majority of Law Enforcement are good honorable people and you do them an injustice but using that term...
