Don't take a gun to a gun fight

[JimO]

then complain that your shot dead, not that he is complaining but all the hand wringing pc types will be

[dangerous]

fuck em... good job police :yes:


cant believe the news was trying to make the dick look good by saying hed done a army course etc, tigers n stripes n all that shit... beter result than 'another' cop shot at work.

[JimO]

heard all the armchair exberts on the wireless today saying why didnt they shoot him in the leg or shoot the gun out of his hand or surround him and overpower him. Of course if he had shot and killed a cop they would be saying why didnt the cops shoot him

[Oblivion]

Yes....Because an Army Course covers up holding a gun and using it against Police. Totally equal :facepalm:

[EJK]

Good riddance. Thank God the cops carried a Glock this time instead of pepper sprays and tazers.

[JimO]

equal or not point a gun at the cops your dead

[nighthawk]

If he was on any kind of army course that involved firearms he would have been told the consiquences of presenting that firearm in any situation.

I am sure that the officers involved would have feared for their safety before shooting and would have been well justifies when they did so.

Sure we must feel for the family of the teenager but you have to ask what values he had been taught to make him think its OK to point a firearm at ANYONE.

[Toaster]

How would anyone feel if someone presented a firearm at them? Of course you would believe your life and the lives of others with you were in imminent danger.

Sadly the only response to a split second situation like that is to use a firearm to stop the threat of death the police were faced with.

Now we sit here and listen to the idiots that say he was a "good boy". What a crock of shit.

[Wannabiker]

those Army courses do not involve any type of firearm training or contact at all.

Not sad to see him go...its not like we have a shortage of criminals...

Listened to the idiots on talkback radio...idiots.

[Owl]

I've just got one thing to say.

Bang!

YIP... :facepalm:

:violin: I dont

[Swoop]

It is nice to see the person helped out the taxpayer by not surviving.

It is not nice to hear that idiot greg o'connor wanking off, once again, before any form of investigation has even commenced. He really has a career in talkback radio.

[Oblivion]

:violin: I dont

Are we meant to? I hope not. Violence never did me any harm.......much.

[Crasherfromwayback]

Yeah. Good boys don't point firearms at police officers. Dead ones do (well...did).

Bad move.

I think it was BANG BANG wasn't it? (two shots?)

[Crasherfromwayback]

Still sad for the boys family. The police officer shouldn't have to have it on his conscience either.

[Laava]

They showed 4 shells on the road on teev earlier.

[davebullet]

Honestly - the prick would have taken the life of someone else down the track. If you fire a gun at the cops at that age then you'll go onto badder things.

The police have saved a life or two. He could have been a Mark Lundy in the making.

[Wannabiker]

Did he only have 4 rounds in the mag...I am sure they take 12....

[pete376403]

Costs are being cut in all sorts of ways. Besides, if 4 aren't enough, you're probably not going to do the job with 12

[Mully]

Suicide by Cop.

Oh dear, how sad, never mind.

Nah more like that ex army roid rager gun nut out in Hastings than Lundy.

[Laava]

Awww! He's just misunderstood!

Difficult understanding anything amongst all that gunfire.

more than 12 mate...



Still sad for the boys family. They breed him... NO way man, do you really think they are squeaky clean hard working citizens??? no it was said 'gang related'




I think it was BANG BANG wasn't it? (two shots?)
seven I thought... hence the media wanking on about 'why that many' well for all we know the 1st 6 might have been warnings in the air... 7 bullets Vs a shotgun, bullets can miss shot guns tend not to.

[Crasherfromwayback]

Really? I haven't read anything about the boys parents having gang connections. The boy himself yes. But even boys (and girls) from really good families can (and often do) go off the rails mate.

[imdying]

those Army courses do not involve any type of firearm training or contact at all.That's because they're all scum bags that've been temporarily drafted.

Can't see why WINZ forcing him onto an army course is supposed to paint him in a good light, that's just where they send the fuck ups. I bet the real army hate having to baby sit those idiots.

[Number One]

you have to ask what values he had been taught to make him think its OK to point a firearm at ANYONE.

I wondered if perhaps he 'wanted' to be taken out.... Death by cop and all that.

[oldrider]

I read where the relatives are angry with the "Police"! FFS!

All he had to do was throw the firearm on the ground! ... Hello! :mellow:

Eggzakely... they should be "angry" with the 19yr old, fark did they expect the coppers to do :facepalm:

Hahahaha...I'm sure we all agree on one thing. If you point a gun at the police...you're running the risk of getting shot, and it's nobody's fault but your own.

The opinions of newly-grieving relatives are hardly going to be well thought-out.
I think it's irresponsible of the media to even ask them let alone print their response.
Rightly or wrongly they are going to be blaming everyone involved until they've had a bit more time to come to terms with losing their kid.

[Scuba_Steve]

What amazes me the most is the cop actually hit him :gob:. Wonder if they were supposed to be warning shots or something??? :shutup:

[JimO]

usually they have a better chance of hitting them if they throw the gun at them

[Flip]

What the fuck was the little tosser criminal doing with a firearm in the first place? Did he shoot at the cops? Did he think he was bullet proof?
Certainly sounds like the kid had issues.

[Usarka]

Should get a teacher to talk to him, and then have a chat with the cops because they probably did something that encouraged his behaviour.

There's a flaw in your theory, it requires half a brain:stupid:

I can't help but feel for the poor unfortunate officers that found themselves in this situation, they will go through a multitude of emotions and a shit load of scrutiney before this matter is done and dusted and even then there willl be some tosser who will still be plugging away in the media complaining for to come.

before you judge the police watch this for some insite into their world

[imdying]

I don't like being lead about by the nose, especially if I know it's going on.

I would wager that, "I don't know why the pigs shot him" became "the relatives blame the police".

One thing we know for sure is that 'journalists' and editors are nothing more than scum sucking liars.

they get a lot of respect for what they do in the vid but lose it again when they become the authoritarian traffic cops enforcing mis-guided policies. He says one really real thing in the vid they seem to forget, they are expected to be human. Add to that that the public expect them to treat us like humans and they will again get the respect they deserve.

[meteor]

Did you hear the uncle say that the police should have used the taser? So how would they get to within the 3 or so meters of taser range while being shot at with a shot gun? Apparently, uncle was really F'd off. Why give the drongo the time of day on air or are the media just beating it up to show what background the kid came from? Either way, he picked a fight and lost. Movin' right along.

[SPman]

Hahahaha...I'm sure we all agree on one thing. If you point a gun at the police...you're running the risk of getting shot, and it's nobody's fault but your own.If you point a gun at ANYONE, you run the risk of being shot..or cudgelled, whacked, thrashed or even pissed on.
Rule no 1 - if you present a firearm at anyone, you should be, and will be assumed to be, prepared to use it. This also applies to anyone presenting a gun at you....like Police.
If you don't want to reap the results, you shouldn't do it in the first place!

To much fucking film and TV showing dickwads shooting and killing with abandon, without any of the smells, sounds and reality of an actual situation, to make anyone realise what an appalling thing it is to violently kill someone else. Reality is not a TV screen, and many people have to find out the hard way......

Agree. Reality is so ..real. I'm not a gun person myself but I must say that a year ago I was on holiday in US of A and in Vegas I went to a gun range. Not a rifle range -GUNS, all sorts of guns. For a hundred bucks or so I could have fired a rocket launcher!
What I got a buzz from, but also shocked me, was how efficient a hand gun was. I fired a couple of machine guns. All fun but the hand gun held 17 rounds (extended magazine) and was soooo easy to use, easy to hit the target and the speed you could aim and fire off the bullets was an eye opener. The thought went through my head looking at the 'low lifes' around me all firing away that at any instant one of these look-like-a madman-crims could turn on me.

Not being a gun fan I was instantly hooked. Loved the sensation it gave and could feel the power it gives the holder. I wanted so much to bring one home! For medicinal purposes only of course.

Back to my point. I now have a much better appreciation of how easily a dickwad with a gun can cause so much death and mayhem. Unfortunately my new understanding was confirmed days later when an army dickwad walked around a military barracks in USA and killed a dozen or so with 2 handguns.

My view now is that anyone that so much as looks like pointing a gun at anyone should be immediately disposed of. There is NO ROOM for hesitation.
