him charging backwards and about to raise the sledgehammer seems like an act of aggression if not a stance leading up to a huge swingOriginally Posted by Stay Lurkin
He didn't swing holy *$+%!

i hope some dude rushes you with a sledgehammer and blows your brains out, and i hope you live long enough to whimper a "i saw him rush at me with an agressive stance ready to swing, but i thought he was just kidding"

^skip to 1:31 and you see what happens when police try to "calm down and subdue" a suspect who is threatening them with a deadly weapon

He didnt swing, but one can only assume he intended to swing.

some of you need to become officers since you can handle all situations without one soul getting hurt.
or give cops classes, since you all have the answers to everything.

A kid was shot and killed out here last night for raising a really realistic looking replica gun at the cops. To those chastising the cops in this thread: Were the cops here in Portland wrong in their conduct?

^asking the wrong people.
everything the cops do is wrong, everything.
it's always excessive force, not enough training, the gov't is out to get us and using cops to kill us all.
there is absolutely no way anybody in the united states is at fault, ever.

i question some of your guys common sense.
say you have your permit to carry, you're all legit. you got your gun on you and a fiend is taking a swing at your boy with a crow bar. you wouldn't light him up? i know i would for a friend. one less idiot in the world.
i actually know someone who was in a situation like this. dude walked into a friends house to see some dude beating a chick down with a hammer.... he shot and killed him. he didn't get in any trouble.
not everyone can be helped, this dude was an idiot and not worth risking being brain dead just so they didn't have to shoot the fool. i'm not even a fan of police. i'm just saying in this situation it was common sense.

Last I checked sledge hammers and crowbars didn't shoot bullets. Like a trained cop can't shoot the dude from somewhat of a distance in the feet? Sure, he was nuts and unpredictable, but he wasn't attacking citizens. They ran off and were safe by the time he started threatening cops.

you do know the feet are a much smaller target than center mass right? so shooting at the floor has much more chances of the bullet bouncing and possibly hitting an innocent bystander.
cops are trained to shoot at center mass (and if they have body armor, the head) not limbs that can move around and you could miss.
a lot of these scenarios are easier said than done.

I find it surprising that no one mentioned any reasaons as to why the dog was not released.
In this situation, if the dog was released, it had a high chance of being hit if it were to have went for one of the 3 limbs that didn't have an object.
When the life of the dog is in danger I think it's better practice to skip it as a means of take down unless there is nothing left.
While I agree that ten rounds is excessive and none of us here know exactly why that many were fired off, using lethal force is justified.

People really think its THAT easy to just "aim at his legs or feet"?
Put yourself in the $*#%$#@ situation. You have seconds to re-act to whats going on. Not to mention other factors such as information on the subject, him being high on whatever, the tazer/spray not working, you start to go from "quietly arresting him" to oh *($#$ we might have a bigger issue here. There could be other factors such as previous experiences by those particular cops that they did not want to happen again. You honestly cant say "they shoudve shot at the feet".
And dude was really saying he wasnt about to swing? He raised his arms to the start of a swinging motion. What more do you need? For him to actually hit you in the damn head? Please. Some people have no common sense at all.

even if they shot at his feet, his arms and the momentum of the hammer would still be heading towards the cop's head/body
by the average NT'ers logic, the cop should have shot each of the guy's fingers so he would drop the hammer, DUHHH "OHMIGAWD DEY DONT TEACH NOTHIN AT POLICE SKEWL, MY TAX DOLLHAIRS!!"

Why is this even a debate. I think its sum trollin goin on in this thread. Or its 1 of 2 things. 1) Some people think all cops are Chuck Norris in disguise 2) Some people have no common sense whatsoever.
Oh and,
I'd give a pair of Concords to any NT'er that could shoot me in the foot while I'm moving to attack them.

Good illustration of your perspective. I can see from your standpoint what you mean and I must stand down and concede. Only thing is that most police officers are like most managers in corporations. Lack of critical thinking is rampant. Delusions of grandeur.

I see your perspective and I know you aren't a cop. But, what would you have done to control the situation? And how do you know he wasn't intent on going to harm someone else?

should have gotten tackled down. A drugged up dude with a crowbar and a famous star cant really do much damage imo. No reason for the shooting.

At first I said the cops were right but after reading this poster's response...I'm not sure if I still feel that way. As for me not being a cop, I don't have an answer for that but if you buck at me with a crowbar and I have a gun, i'm going to jerk backwards and let off one in your lower extremity n see what that does and if you still charging then i'm shooting you nonstop in your thoracic region!
