There is also a lot of regular people now aday shooting at the drop of a hat.

As for someone shooting in your "general direction". You do realize that bullets come out of the end of the guns and can kill you? They don't care if the guy was point directly at you or in your "general direction". Go stand at the end of a rifle range than tell me what you think of that?

What lead up to a 107 guy to go off and start blasting away? All of you basement dwelling IA guy's have it figured out. Sounds like most of you must have been on the entry with the SWAT team?
Had a live feed of the action? Interviewed the parties involved? Anything?

Or are you just jumping to conclusions and making assumptions that you have no knowledge of? Bet you still think Zimmerman stalked Trayvon and gunned him down in cold-blood.

Dear Mr. Ed. St Skiddles was a Robitussin addled criminal thug in training.

Since you had a live feed of the situation, why not post it?

Oh you didn't have a live feed either, and are doing the same thing you are castigating others for doing?

Most LE are not bloodthirsty criminals. Almost all LE are not bloodthirsty criminals.

Calling in SWAT teams almost always leads to DEATH. Justified or not. DEATH. DEATH DEATH DEATH DEATH DEATH....

The simple solution is to NOT call in the SWAT DEATH Squad! Or better yet disband and defund the SWAT DEATH SQUADS.

You said the N word first. You lose.

Perhaps it was the only way that they could figure out how to best a 107 year old man. That in itself is unfortunate but the real problem here is that the police need to start policing themselves. There are too many that are just cold blooded killers that hide behind a badge and play paramilitary commandos. Too many Barney Fifes out there that should not be issued bullets. If not for the constant barrage of reports of gung ho SWAT types killing the wrong people or Innocent family pets, you wouldn't have to defend against those who think that it's time to back off with the practice of killing first and asking questions later. If not for the hundreds of rounds fired every year at non criminals by police, you would not have to defend.

Do police everywhere a favor and demand professionalism and in time good cops won't be drug down by the trigger happy thugs that play commando.
