You seemed to be pointing out that if you point a gun at the police then you deserve to get shot and killed. I'm pointing out that its not always the case. Some criminals who blatantly flout the law like Bundy are allowed to surrender. How is it not relevant?

No. I was showing what the top comment was on dm

I agree, your point was quite relevant

So why can't Girth discuss that Top comment that you posted? :think:

Stop commenting on that comment Girth made about LT's comment on that top comment from Daily Mail. :nono:

How is the top comment on DM relevant? Was it made by a forum member? IF not then why did you post it?

Another day, another shooting in America.

From what I read of reports, the police officers involved handled this situation horribly.

:clap1:

No one has said what the officer should have done instead?

How in any way is that the same as a close grapple with a mentally derranged man who grabs a cops gun with the intention of shooting him?

:joker: They somehow arrested Bundy with out shooting him.

Did you watch the video?

On liveleak

:joker: Is that a joke?

Bundy said on TV how he didnt respect the at police authority. His men were on record stating that they will shoot the officers and one boasted of how he had four in his sights but they somehow managed to arrest him without killing hm. How do yonot u think they did that? Who cares. All it shows is that it IS possible to end these disputes without fatalities. Its noted also in the Bundy case that the officers were told by authorities not to escalate the situation when the confrontation broke out. Maybe a little more of that kind of discretion is needed.

WHich one?

Liveleak

No. IS it different to the BBc vid?

Dezzy Its America
Never Ever touch or pull out a Coppers Gun in USA
thats asking for death

The Police did the Right thing
All Legal

Yes it is

Have you posted it?

Seen it. Its the same vid? :shrug:

No, the link I posted was a biased account typical of me apparently, they couldn't possibly be the same video :omg:

I was looking for some different angle but its essentially the same vid but without the commentary. :shrug:

I dont know how they got Bundy to stand down but they did and that in itself shows these confrontations can be solved without fatalities.
