[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So a random "jump in" in CP. Drive your car across the city. Most likely will get away with it with the no pursuit laws. You just forget to calculate that the no pursuit laws do not apply to the Park Police or the Secret Service or the Park Police helicopter which apparently followed the car across the city. But the randomness of shooting into a construction site with three shooters is what is scary. Jump in or not. Random acts of violence are terrifying and only encourage the "we should all be armed" crowd.[/quote] it sounds like it was a targeting shooting. props to the park police and secret service in chasing the shooters to the ground. that kind of *immediate* response is the kind of thing that will repress lawlessness, much more than long prison sentences. [/quote] That kind of thing (pursuits) is banned for regular MPD in DC. Luckily we had park police / SS nearby. What if we hadn't? These guys would continue joyriding and shooting em up. [/quote] It's not banned for violent crimes like shootings, though if Charles Allen has his way it will be. And DCPS can join in pursuits if Park Police and Secret Service initiate them.[/quote] My understanding is that wokedom is protesting the hot pursuit that ended in a crash. They'd prefer unfettered crime obvi.[/quote] The PP clearly said that if you cannot handle a shooting in your neighborhood every now and then, then you should move out of DC. I presume that means they want the crime. [/quote] I think you mean America. Any place there are Americans there will be shootings - there are shootings in the burbs too.[/quote] Right. But apparently the PP does not want them questioned, challenged or prevented. We all just need to move every time there is a shooting [/quote]
