| 710637 | 2008-10-08 00:25:00 | Question: How do you tell the difference between:- A New Zealand Police Officer , An Australian Police Officer ?and An American Police Officer? To obtain the answer you must pose the following question to the Officer; 'You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small children . Suddenly, a dangerous looking man with a huge knife comes around the corner, locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, raises the knife, and charges . You are carrying a Glock . . 40, and you are an expert shot . You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family . What do you do?' NZ POLICE OFFICER'S Answer: ' Well, that's not enough information to answer the question! Does the man look poor or oppressed? Have I ever done anything to him that would inspire him to attack? Could I possibly swing the gun like a club and knock the knife out of his hand? What does the law say about this situation? Does the Glock have appropriate safety built into it, am I using it in an OSH approved fashion? Why am I carrying a loaded gun anyway, and what kind of message does this send to society and to my children? If I raise my gun and he turns and runs away, Do I get blamed when he falls over running away, knocks his head and kills himself? Will the NZ tax payer foot the bill for his ACC claim if I injure him? If I shoot him, and lose the court case . Does he have the opportunity to sue me, cost me my job, my credibility and I will lose my family home? Am I being culturally sensitive to the attacker if I shoot him, will I be offending his mana if I wound or kill him? Will I have to defend myself in court as a racist if I shoot him? ' Australian Officer's Answer: BANG! American Officer's Answer BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! Click (changing magazine) BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG |

| 710643 | 2008-10-08 05:44:00 | i assume the american Cop used the Black Talon Hollow points? if not he should get a written warning for being lazy and using the standard ammunition :p He's probably either dead or still trying to hit the guy with the knife. I think I posted links to research on the poor accuracy of US police last time this "joke" appeared. |

| 710644 | 2008-10-08 06:39:00 | Oh, I don’t know, didn’t our intrepid marksmen fire six or so shots at a dog that belonged to the victim? Just by the way, the animal was unharmed. :banana |

| 710645 | 2008-10-08 07:16:00 | Another question - You come to a scene outside a shop. A man, obviously the shop owner, with blood streaming from knife wounds is restraining a callow youth whose injuries are only a bruised nose. Who do you charge with a criminal conduct? | Dally (6292) | ||
