yah right lest see you hit a 4" wide moving target. and if you miss you are hitting one of the 50 witnesses around. cops are trained to aim and shoot the middle of the body. and the way most cops shoot, they are lucky to hit that.

anyone came at me with a threat, i will shoot to kill...
Its standard procedure...no matter if its a gun, knife, toy gun, toy knife or a hammer.
A threat is a threat, a baton vs a knife to save my own life and others?...no thanks, i rather use my .45acp

I think cops in Vancouver should just be armed with baseball bats.
If would-be criminals saw a group of 6 cops beating down a drug dealer or punk with baseball bats, it'd be a much better crime deterrent than seeing someone simply shot.

i hate the homeless and addicts as much as anyone else. but i dont think that he desereved to DIE over this ..
you there obvious never had any kind of security training..

exacto knife can kill ppl, or even worst give the stabbed person AIDS for the rest of his/her life. Now I would much rather die than live the rest of my life with AIDS, or better yet just not risk it and shoot the bum IMO.
Also, do you have any idea how long it takes the cops to pull out their guns (not the ones down their pants) and give a warning? I'll tell you. If the bum, holding a knife that could possible have HIV infect or diseases, was charging full speed at you within 10meters, you're fucked!

Now. let's put yourself into that situation with a bum holding a knife.. it's a tough situation cause what if he throws it, and you get some fuked up disease for the rest of your life..
then gg

um.. that's still a close distance battle.. and the chance for one of the officers to get sliced by the knife (may be infected with diseases) is like 99%..

now i wouldn't risk that.. I mean.. if the bum cooperates and drop the knife, then i'll use bats to get close to the guy.

I've done a workshop where it was 2v1, and the one was holding a marker (in replacement of an actual knife). In the end, the two guys had ink all over their skin and everywhere..
that just proved a point..

for all the people out there who think the cops shouldn't of shot this guy then do this test........................... ORANGE 7 actually also said this

1.) get a unknown person (average) to stand 20 feet away from you with his back towards you
2.) make sure he has two options to chose from, a black marker (represents a knife) and nothing (representing his fist)
3.) you stand their in a normal standing position and let this guy decide when he will charge at you and what he is going to use
4.) if he choses the knife, then defend yourself agaist a little small x acto knife.............. when does he stop??????????????? when he feel like it or until you stop him........
5.) count how many times you are marked with that black marker, that will equal how many times you have been stabbed

now you can all say that not everyone is a cop and we all dont have guns,,,,,,,,,,,,,fair

now put a duty belt on with the following tools...............oc spray,baton, taser and pistol

now in that 5 seconds or less that it takes this guy to run at you full speed....... decide what weapon you are going to use????????

even better.............. the NATIONAL USE OF FORCE MODEL which governs all the force options by police in pretty much north america considers a knife or "sharp edged weapon" to be in the "greavous bodily harm, or death" catagory...............

that means you can use lethal force (because the other tools will not defend you, this is proven)

now in that 2-5 seconds that it takes for a person to charge at you from 20 feet, pull out a gun from a holster (yes you can have all the time you want to practice this)

and take aim (cause you have all the time in the world)

and shoot at his 5 inch leg so that you might disable him...........or better the arm that he is holding the knife in................or better the hand!!!!!!!!! g

I got one word for you then.................................

GOOD LUCK and see you on the other side when your dead!!!

just a little food for thought

They use tasers, and people complain. They use guns, and people complain(except some assholes on the forums that forget that homeless are fucking human as well, but I digress)

I have a huge problem with video being deleted. If a police officer asked me to surrender my camera, I would deny it. You can pick up the video on youtube. Search for username, "urfucked".

bingo. biggest target would be the torso and 9mm parabellum rounds are designed to bounce around the body after it enters, causing more trauma than simply exiting the body.

and yes, a stray bullet could have a lot of repercussions. (innocent bystanders)
