This is a more complete report. I am not discarding this, so it can direct you elsewhere.

Kid shouldn't have been black and run from power hungry police men... it was bound to happen then.

Is it really necessary for the pigs to use their cars to try and mow his legs down? I mean out of all fifteen or so of those pig cars must be someone fit enough to outrun him! I'm so sick of cops and not only that but I'm sick of Texas (and Cheney ALL over again) after watching that GasLand doc.

That all depends.>> ^shagen454:

See my comments on the more complete version of this semi-dupe if you want my opinion on the video.

As to your question about running people over--it is up to the eye of the beholder. I mean the scenario here could go many ways.

One: A fit cop, as you mention, runs and catches this man. Well, cop subdues him--no harm no foul.

However, the second "could happen" is this guy is packing, he get's a good break away and some distance, car jacks a mom and her kids, and blows their fucking brains out. That has happened before, and it will happen again...

I would fear the second option... Because, buglary is an inherently violent crime due of the "Oh fuck" factor of what can go wrong.

Now, which incident is worse? And which incident will get the department sued?

Do you think cops like to ram another vehicle (To stop a crazy driver for example) when its their head smashing against an airbag?

What I hate is both sides. Any one who tries to defend these cop-scums, for example. Or, near me, this guy tried to pull a cop's gun…and people were mad he was shot! (It was all on camera and the cop was professional…) And that happened right after two cops died to some fucking piece of shit pig/criminal...

What I am trying to say, is it is hard to defend the position "Well, I thought I could catch him, yah know? I am sorry the little kid got killed."

Remember, cops my train to be fast, but ciminals live to be fast.

All part of the social contract.
