[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] No suggestions from you, only criticism of others. Got it. Just fyi, this forum is filled with anonymous posters making commemts, asking questions, venting, sharing news that's already on other sites, etc. Welcome to DCUM!😀[/quote] Yes, I'm going to criticize the person who, while off duty, in a jurisdiction where he had no authority, shot at a car because he thought the people in it were stealing in it, and killed two of them. You know who else is criticizing that person? The Takoma Park chief of police, and the county state's attorney who charged him with second-degree murder and attempted second-degree murder. If you're trying to defend the police, "random people ought to be able to shoot other people in parking lots in order to maintain law and order!" ain't it. It merely demonstrates your very low expectations of police officers' abilities and actions. [/quote] PP here. I'm not excusing that at all. I had posted in response to a comment--maybe yours--that said such crimes should be stopped by on duty police officers and no guns. Just wondering how anyone thinks that's a workable plan for the on duty policemen, except to let criminals do what they're intending to do--steal and carjack from innocent people.[/quote] So you're saying that it's imposssible for police officers to stop car thieves, unless they're allowed to shoot the car thieves? And you think you're DEFENDING the police?[/quote] I didn't say they had to shoot thieves at random. They do need some way to apprehend them. Maybe canines? Soft words ain't gonna deter a thief.
