595445 2007-09-27 10:11:00 Thats why the police take guns off males who are going through seperation/divorce.

That is utter rubbish. They do not routinely take firearms off males who are in the process of separation or divorce. They don't know who actually has firearms for a start nor would they have information on who is getting divorced.

You do talk a load of rubbish sometimes. :rolleyes:

Never had any firearms taken off me, but i have never been divorced. I had a work colleague that had his firearms taken off him when he stared running around the backyard naked with his shotgun. I also have a mate that is currently going through separation, who has a protection order out against him, and he still has his firearms.

Rubbish, it's not as easy as that. A legitimate complaint has to be laid before the police can confiscate someone's firearms otherwise any silly fool can tell the cops just out of spite.

595450 2007-09-27 11:33:00 It is interesting to hear how the eyewitness accounts vary from person to person. Some say he had his arms by his side when shot others say he was
running towards the officer with the hammer raised above his head. Same with
the ambulance St johns say 8-9mins from getting 111 call others say 30mins.
With things like this you always get 10 different stories.
And if we were living in the States, it probably wouldn't even make the news.

I agree with you 100%.
Criminals need to know that tough action will be taken against them.

I had a young fellow about 12 years old, smash his skateboard against me car (nicely denting it) and telling me to f-off while I was waiting at a red light.
Myself being just short of 6.5 and about 93kg could have dispatched this little twerp of about 5feet and 50kg without thinking.
I was sorely tempted to get out, and do so, but luckily I didn't as a cop had seen the whole thing, and the kid got into a crap load of trouble (charges placed against him for unprovoked destruction etc).
So yea, the little brat who thought he was sooooo cool, got his butt pwned big time. and im sure he will think twice about smacking someone else's car.

Criminals need to know that the cops won't play ball any more.
The cop is the referee, and instead of being armed with a mere whistle - he has a pistol/tazer.

595452 2007-09-27 13:38:00 yet another reason for "less than lethal" tasers...

why people object to them is beyond me

(and that article either contradicts itself many times, or is trying to give way to many different accounts at once)

My g/f watched both accounts by the same witness, once in the morning, and last night on that dick Sainsburys show. She reckons the second time round, the story got longer and more exciting. However, I noted, there were some minor inconsistancies in the one version I saw (like first off he said the guy held the hammer with 2 hands above his head when charging at the cop, and then later in the story, he was mimicking the offender, but with only one hand holding the hammer :confused: )

Trial by media again??

If witnesses give 2 versions of the event live on TV, just think of the results should a lawyer get to cross examine any of them .
