BLM Blamed for Spike in Deaths of Chicago's Blacks

The Tamir case is one that should have been avoided. If there had been a report of shoots fired by the suspect I could except unloading on hair trigger but that was not the case.

Says the guy who's never had a gun drawn on him, and has no idea what it's like to react to that.

I have, actually, several times. Once by a cop, whom I just stared at until he put it down, and once by an idiot showing off his M-16. In the second case, I told him to put it down, or one of us would die.

Well, the cop thing might be legit, but there's not much you can do about that except try to get his supervisor to do something about it, which probably won't happen.

There's a difference an idiot pointing a weapon at you, and someone actually drawing on you with intent. Two different things.

So now we're comparing to other countries, because fuck it, why not.

Everyone in Somalia has a gun, and you never hear about police shootings in Somalia.

Wow look at that stunning jump of logic. A comparison with another industrialised nation where the police force doesn't carry firearms routinely can obviously be related to a lawless society where everyone carries AK 47's, there is no effective police force and life is cheaper than one of Clubby's jokes.
Want to know how many people have been shot and killed in England and Wales since 1990?
I bet you don't but I'll tell you anyway, it's 63. Not 63 per year that is the total figure since 1990 or fewer than 2.5 per year. Now you tell me the total since 1990 in the US. I'll let you divide it by 4 to make up for the difference in populations.

Edit for clarity, 63 shot and killed by the police is what I meant to say.

The guy is stumbling out of the car with his gun out, blasting anything around. The driver went full throttle across a public park, skidding to a stop in front of a fucking gazebo.

There are so many things wrong with this scenario, that I can't even comprehend..

The cop thing was a group of 4 16-year olds smoking dope on an access road. 3 cars pulled us over, had us stick hands out the windows, and walked up with guns drawn, pointed, and flashlights in our faces. I stared directly into that fucking doughy face until he walked away.

I'm not going to claim combat experience or anything, and I'm aware that you served. But a stable, confident human being can handle these situations without flying into a murderous panic. I expect that those we pay and equip to protect us should be that sort of person, not some fucking Barney Fife character blasting kids as soon as they get lip.

Chapter 1: Get the shit kicked out of you.

Brohash might be available to help you prosecute a copyright claim on Chapter 1. Slam dunk.

If the price is right, he might even help out on a copyright defense on Chapter 2.

You're prolly on your own on "The End."

:goteam: :drunk:

Your comparison sucks just as much as mine does. Britain isn't an armed nation. Comparison fail.
