That would be unrealistic, but the silence is more evident when your posts are mostly just that you think everyone is too mean to cops and also that you are one of the Good Ones, and we should be so thankful. Or when you see a cop behaving badly, you say they're No True Copsman.

Man, if you just want to scream into the void you can use twitter. Personally, that doesn't make me feel better, so I dont see the need to quote every post like the ones you mentioned and go "yup, they bad". It doesn't do anything but prompt you and yours to come scream some more about how I'm a fascist because of your preconceptions about what I do for a living.


Edit
Btw you didnt specifically disavow the hostage takers. Your silence regarding their terrible actions speaks volumes about your character and clearly you'd rather use the death of the poor UPS driver to make a point, you sociopathic monster. :rolleyes:

Based on the article and video, it looks like the police opened fire on the truck first. Why? Given that there were hostages in a soft skin vehicle and it was in an area full of bystanders, wouldn’t it have made more tactical sense to exercise patience instead of shooting high velocity rounds that would penetrate both sides of the vehicle as well as probably at least two cars on either side of it? Why couldn’t they have pulled the cruisers back, followed it with a heli, and waited until the truck ran out of gas or wrecked and then negotiated a surrender?

And all this over a bunch of lovely stolen jewelry? Frankly it seems like a miracle that more bystanders weren’t killed.

Unless they were shooting indiscriminately as they drove I don't see a reason to engage them. As you said, it looks like the cops opened fire first, which would definitely be bad. But that doesn't necessarily mean the hostage takers hadn't been shooting as they fled (I dont see anything indicating they were, but a helicopter video is hardly the whole story, so I'm not ruling out the possibility based only on the short clip we have).

If they were behaving like active shooters amidst all those cars then it would have been a lose lose situation with no good choices that I could think of.

Not only did the straight up murder that driver, look at the car behind the truck.

They had no loving idea what was in their backstop, which is to say they were unloading with handguns and what looks to be an AR into moving traffic, and another bystander died because of it.

If you bend over backwards any further to justify police firing indiscriminately into a crowded situation with a backdrop of bystanders, which resulted in the deaths of both the hostage and one of said bystanders, you're going to strain something and end up on paid leave with the shooters.

If the hostage takers were shooting at the cops first, and the cops killed two innocent people when firing back, then they (the cops) shouldn’t have done that.

Sorry. There’s no “but the bad guys started it!!” when the cops are the only people with a body count of innocent people in the situation. And you’re part of the problem for bringing that dumb “we don’t have the whole story from the footage” poo poo up. The facts are this: the cops killed two innocent people. Everything else is pretty much irrelevant. But because you don’t think that is exactly why poo poo like this is allowed to happen.

If the hijackers weren't shooting at anyone then the cops should not have engaged them at all while innocent people were in the backdrop. I 100% agree with that and if my previous post was not clear enough, that was the intent of it. I hope you understood that this time, cole.

You said “it doesn’t necessarily mean the hostage takers hadn’t been shooting” (verbatim quote) when that is 100% loving irrelevant when the cops killed two innocent people. And bringing up dumb poo poo like that is why people say you are part of the problem even if you’re not the one pulling the trigger. Why bring that up? To leave open the possibility of justifying it? There is zero justification for police killing innocent people.

If you read the whole conversation, cole, the previous poster asked why the cops would instigate a shootout in an area with so many innocent bystanders around. He made the- very good- suggestion of using a helicopter to follow the hostage takers until they were in a safer area. So I put forward the only reason that I would ever engage with people like that in a crowded area: if they were behaving like active shooters and indiscriminately shooting into the crowd. I also said that i did not see anything in that video to indicate that those hostage takers were doing that, and with the very limited information we currently have i don't see anything to make me believe they were.

Once again, cole, I think the cops grossly, and probably criminally, mishandled the situation based on the very limited amount of information we have.
