Default Re: The Brazilian guy shot in London

The guy screwed up and it cost him his life is what I got out of this, act like it's happened before...

The fact is it really doesn't happen here, the police shot a guy who was mildly drunk walking home from a DIY shop with a new leg for his table, the fact is most of the police don't bear arms, most of the ones who do have never shot anyone. The government and the met tell us these guys are highly trained, but in truth most of them have never shot at anyone. FWIW even though I was the OP, I had no intention of suggesting police brutality, implied or otherwise.

The main problem I have is that they say it will happen again, thats not good enough, in essence the facts that turned out to be the truth after the event, were much more likely than what was suspected when they killed him.
