Police shoot and kill another person

[peasea]

Another witness has come forward and said that he saw the officer blow on the end of the barrel after the shooting.

Another said that after checking for a pulse, they found one so proceeded to hold their hand over his mouth.

One even saw an officer urinating on the deceased.

The body is still there today and it is said that after fornesics have finished playing poker in the tent, they'll let the local dogs have a feed.

This is all true. The public and media never fabricate stuff.

And neither (thank the Good Lord) do the police. Whew!

I threw away the hatchet way back. Can't be bothered looking for it.

Is this an attempt to suggest the witness is lying or that the media have made the story up.. ? Let's just hope for you're sake they never decide to arm Dog Rangers!

Yes fair call, but Manderson has also said that other weapons may have been involved. Now he may have had an arsanal in his garage but unless he was armed with additional weapons Manderson's comment about 'other weapons' is irrellevent. It was her comment on this that caught my attention that not all is kosher here.

There has been no information that the offender was rushing or about to rush the officer. In fact a witness has come forward and stated the offender had his arms at his side at the time of the shooting.

Jeepers its easy for people to evaluate the situation second by second after the fact (or lack of them at this stage). But we aren't there, Shitting our pants, with some guy coming at us with weapons! Are we!

[Grahameeboy]

Aw c'mon, be thinking - what would have happened if an armed cop got into a grapple with a retard-waste-of-tax-payers-money and lost - and said retard now had a pistol with 17 bullets.


Shoot more of the idiots I say - then the bleeding-heart soft-cock public will be BEGGING for tazers to be introduced all round to front line cops.

I kinda get your point re tazers but....okay I know it is me........

[HenryDorsetCase]

years ago a cop was killed by a fuckwit with a screwdriver ... got him in the carotid artery (IIRC) so "found objects" can be very effective. Murray Stretch I think was the cops name... poor bastard.

and any Joe Public that lives in that area of town has an axe to grind with the Pleece, no question.

[Grahameeboy]

Yeah, like we all have THAT in our hip pockets ready for instant deployment!!

Well you carry guns ready for instant deployment.........what about the boot......??

And the four shot comment you made earlier? - you are guessing they ALL hit the idiot eh?

True..................


Wait and see, wait and see...

I agree

Glad that there is another fine example of Darwin at work.
A golf club might be an example of a more "serious" weapon. A hammer though?
What will be next? "He came at me with a pen, so I shot him"?

You are allowed to use any force you deem necessary to defend yourself,... I think i you are attacked unprovoked with many witnesses and you drop the guy permanently you would not get convicted by your peers.

Just screwed for thousands of dollars to defend yourself, while the prosecution use your tax dollars to screw you over.

The 37-year-old victim, resident in Christchurch but from the North Island,

So the family will want his body buried in the North Island?

...the police do not go around filling people with lead ( unless you count the ozzie federal police ) needlessly...

Correct. That is the job of cheap, shit quality, chinese imported toys.

Too early to pass comment, although I could say something cynical like "there'll be an inquiry, the cops will be cleared of any wrongdoing etc etc" but I won't.

This is the purpose of the police complaints authority, to "have an investigation" and clear the police of any blame.

Things are definitely getting worse in this great country of ours...I am saddened by what society is becoming!
A Mans life now has stuff all value. I dont care if he was an arse or not, maybe he just flipped his lid a bit...dont we all have bad days??? A Taser would have solved the issue without taking a life, but cos of all the bullshit and outcry about them we now have a dead man...Life is a thing to value, not throw away!

It'd be in keeping with current tradition.

No room - thats where ticket books go.

Just another fuckin' reason why the NZ Police should be given tazers...
Blame the bleedin' heart fuckin' greens, if it weren't for them every officer would have a tazer on his side and a .223 in the boot of his cruiser.

Oh, and what's more dangerous, a golf club or a hammer? I propose the hammer is, because you can easily punch a hole it someones skull with one, wheras the golf club is just going to leave some serious divots upside your head.
