| 757202 | 2009-03-17 18:17:00 | Can someone ask Steven Wallace's mum to give up and pay us back for all the damage her son did - 80 shop windows and damage to police car and taxi etc. Let alone all the legal aid she has probably had |

| 757207 | 2009-03-17 19:51:00 | I don't like the police shooting people for bugger all reason, There were far better options available. If he was hitting a person with his golf club then hell yes shoot him, However I can't correlate the act of smashing windows with being shot dead. You and I certainly couldn't get away with killing someone for being a vandal.case in point the Aucklander who stabbed the kid in the heart, He was punished, very lightly punished but at the very least it sends a (weak) message that the people of NZ are not allowed to be running around murdering each other for petty crimes. Is the world a better place if instead of a window smasher we have a murderer walking the steets? If they get the green light to shoot people dead for petty crimes then where do you stop?, The police are not infallable and taken just a slighty bit further they could accuse of something, get upset that you argue, and shoot you dead..... Whats next?, Shooting people over a speeding ticket? |

Whats next?, Shooting people over a speeding ticket? Right. Indeed right, absolutely........... Whatever happened to the traditional unarmed bobby who was trained to, or through experience, could talk a crim into handing his weapon over, like Dixon of Dock Green ? ( :) ) Where are the bobbies patrolling the streets, whose mere presence deters crime.? When did you last see a bobby walking a beat or standing at an intersection keeping an eye on things ? Are we going to end up like the US or even Venezuela where the cops will shoot if you dont stop when they indicate? |
