Then, if you lose control of a situation because you are trying to "assist" someone whose own behavior demanded the initial action? And an actual innocent gets hurt?

You're out of your element...
Odd how the job, the process, the context always seems to decree that the cops must do nasty shit. And it's all the fault of the non-cops, who FORCE the cops to do what they do.

Are you the slightest bit aware how much you sound like a male who creates a violent, abusive domestic relationship with a woman? They also are obsessed with 'controlling the situation,' and always go on about how the woman 'forced' them to punish her in whatever sadistic way they come up with....

You're right. I'm 'out of my element.' I just think people in the 'element' you describe don't belong on the street with a badge and a gun.

Nobody wants to -- ever -- shoot anyone. If criminal intent decrees, it's not on the officer as the action was demanded.

Are you aware that you are victimizing criminal behavior? The only way your metaphor makes any sense is if the woman was engaged in criminal activity. At that point? She does not, nor anyone, remain a victim.

Only if by "element" you mean educated, trained and experienced law enforcement professionals.

Oh I am thinking which is more than I can say for you. The boy's sister was unarmed and merely wanted to look after her 12 year old brother who at that point was not dead. The big burly idiot of a cop decided that he could not face that situation and so arrested her.

Serve and protect my arse, Jeez it is like listening to a tape loop, press the button and out comes the same bull shit.

I hope for some woman's sake you are unmarried as you display all the humanity of a concrete block.

No, you're NOT "thinking."

Because you have absolutely no idea what the sister's intent was nor can you presume she was unarmed.

On this issue, you're displaying the intelligence of a concrete block.

Au contraire I have watched the fil several times, she had nothing in her hands, when she was handcuffed there was no attempt to frisk her, she was simply tossed into the back of the patrol car.

As for intelligence dear boy I will see your IQ and raise you thirty.

Touched a nerve have we.

Again, you realize this implies nothing?

Sometimes, expedience matters...

Not a congruent statement with so many of your "you're dead-tough shit" posts lurking around, Zeke. (Paraphrased as you're not worth the time to go digging for the specific nauseating verbiage.)

Nothing ever does to you but your own ego

Ah yes so the next time I see a 14 year old girl running at me I will handcuff her.

Sorry Zeke my first inclination would be to open my arms and give her a hug.
