LOL, nah think he had a gun but tbh I don't know if he was the right fella or just unlucky bystander. Which is exactly the reason these tactics are so controversial.

mushroom 12,393 Posted December 4, 2018 Report Share Posted December 4, 2018 I guess it would fall under something like lethal force when under threat. Let's face it, they are authorised to cap yo ass if you are armed and threatening. So why not run you over? Guaranteed those cops were thinking the same Especially in Arizona ffs, those guys aren't plumbed in right lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Meece 1,957 Posted December 4, 2018 Report Share Posted December 4, 2018 Brace thee self for immediate ramming! !! How the hell are patrol car drivers that are told to ram the fellows of foreign origin riding along on a nicked moped supposed to control the outcome of an impact.

mushroom 12,393 Posted December 4, 2018 Report Share Posted December 4, 2018 To be fair in the old days of nicking cars, they had the stinger and didn't give a fec if you wrecked after blowing out your tyres. How is this any different? Imo it's a step back in the right direction! Next should be if some cnut invades ya gaff, you can plug them without consequence.

As soon as he said to hold back there are pedestrians it escalated then the lad fired off a round and escalated again. It's Arizona though. Copper's probably going to have a harder time explaining writing off a police car. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
