I don't really trust any politicians tbh, so I wouldn't be surprised if there was shenanigans. I don't think there was though, not without actual proof.

Reading that was a roller-coaster.

I'm not shocked, play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

If only people questioned why so many were killed or crippled in the BLM protests. When they were legally protesting and not raiding the seat of Government.

She was committing a criminal act....you're the first to condemn that normally when police open fire on a "perp"

I dont condone any kind of police shooting but this seems like abit of a change of attitude for yourself.

An aggressive group planned an invasion of a government building in an attempt to disrupt a democratic process... If the world is "shocked" that someone got shot then the world is dumb. I'm "shocked" that only one person got shot.

Am I happy or glad that she got shot and is dead? No not really... But I'm no more shocked that it happened than I would be if I saw a bunch of silly teenagers playing chicken on a motorway and then heard that someone had been hit by a car.

Also... Like others... Having read all of your posts about how officers fear for their lives and have to react to protect themselves on countless threads on this forum... I just can't take it seriously when you pretend to be shocked/upset that someone was shot whilst a crowd tried to smash through a barricaded door. Utter nonsense.

Where's this sympathy for unarmed black people who are shot in their homes by police? or just living their lives and being killed for it? You always make out that when black people are killed by police that it's their fault, that the police acted accordingly.

Which is quite interesting considering you seem to have more sympathy for a dead white terrorist than dead innocent black people.

George Floyd was an unarmed man, would be interesting to go back and see your initial reaction to his death wouldn’t it

Sadly I agree with this.

I didn't want her shot, but she didn't really give The Police much choice in the matter.

In an ideal world they should've aimed for her legs, but I imagine that it was a stressful situation to be in for a Police Force that isn't well trained overall.

Remember when those protestors hurled all that flour or something in the house of commons...what would people have said if they had been shot?

If they had smashed their way in through glass panelled doors and half of them had guns and improvised explosives, I think people would have said "Well, that was inevitable".

What would people be saying about this shooting if it had been a group of Muslim men storming into the building?

They would be saying hero officers end terrorist attack.

But the weapons haul has yet to be seen

a man was arrested who had a military semi-automatic rifle and 11 Molotov cocktails "that were ready to go." Is that enough of a threat for you?

You would show a lack of remorse and claim the police officer was just doing his job...

I'm not sure of the point you're making, are you saying something is not fair? What kind of comment would you be expecting in the scenarios you're giving? Please expand?

Democratic vote is a stretch when there is almost always, only 2 people to vote for.
