Funny how 99% of these incidents prove,in spite of initial claims,to be absolutely justifiable.The incident in Charlotte is now looking to be just such a case,as was Baltimore,Ferguson,Orlando,etc.

We spend a lot of time each summer in Coronado. Over the last couple summers there has been a huge increase in the number of Muslims visiting Coronado - especially on the weekends. They walk in big groups along the Ferry Landing and make it very hard for you to walk around them. They never move as someone normally would to let someone pass by. It gets a little scary sometimes. I guess I am paranoid but I always feel they visit Coronado to spy on the Navy. Just hope someone is keeping an eye on them.

I think you are right on your assessment.

“Or you can figure something else out to subdue him without involving the cops.”

— Well yeah,of course-—but what if you can’t?

Call relatives, friends...do whatever you must. There are too many stories where the police are called even for things as simple as a wellness check and the person everyone is concerned about ends up dead. Once the police arrive, the focus of concern shifts to that of the officers. Their safety becomes paramount, and other lives present fall a distant second. Call it procedure, whatever you'd like, but that is the bottom line.

The cops have an entire video, but they release ONE screen capture.

If you wanted to create mistrust, that’s how you’d do it.

Also, bad stuff will be coming out about the shooter very soon.

Getting in that position after the cops have been called on you due to calls about you being unstable will get guns pointed at you. Not complying immideatly to whatever their requests are will most likely get you shot, white, black, orange, purple, etc.

Actually I think it is Moon Beam’s fault. The guy should have been sporting bright orange vest with large lettering stating “Mentally Ill” or “Unsupervised Retard” or “Doing Bath Salts” or other warnings as appropriate while in public is the least the CA Dept. of Public Safety could do.

The public could flee as necessary when spotting the individuals and police could be on the alert and prepositioned with nets and dart guns to safely take the creatures down.

I am sure they make SOME where no one turns up dead. It would be interesting to know the percentage of the bad ones.

Sorry, we can't discuss that. Doing so would not fit into the anti-police agenda.

“shooting stance,”

There’s yer problem dumbasses

[pfflier]

I conceeded that in my post 26. You can get the award if you render yourself sterile.

Deaf people may not comply because they can’t hear. Crazy people also may not comply because they are crazy. paraplegics likely can’t put their hands up. There’s got to be a better way of dealing with them than just killing them. Just saying...

Another mentally ill African career criminal had to be put down. So what’s new?

I was just there last month. That is not a black community..

Also, those calling for federal intervention have only a little time left; I don’t see an AG Giuliani allowing his agency going full bore left anymore..
