I guess now we are going to see a government movement to ban spears....

[Bob]

My first thought too, but no, he apparently never threw it. What a headline that would have made.

Sheriff’s deputies shot and killed a man who charged at innocent people with a spear

Innocent people? There are none.

“THIS is why we need universal mental health checks.”...

Anybody wanna bet there had been drugs involved? Run his remains through the appropriate tests and give us the results.

**Was it a Roman Spear or a Zulu spear?**

Dadburnit! Beat me to it! Now I’m suffering vapor lock of the brain trying to come up with another spear name.

“Was it a Roman Spear or a Zulu spear?”

If he used an atlatl the media would be calling it an assault spear.

If 0bama had a son.........

sounds like suicide to me

I have wondered why when they have bean bag guns, and tasers they don't have a net gun? You would think that a net gun would be a method that could ensnare someone like this at a distance far enough to still keep officers and civilians safe. http://wildlifecapture.com/large-animal-net-gun I guess the money that could be spent on this is not as attractive as buying more M-16's or urban assault vehicles. http://wildlifecapture.com/large-animal-net-gun

heck! an spear? ..I could've taken him out w/ a (crook)
walking stick..Bojitsu.."I'm sorry, officer he just tripped-out."
glad to see nobody was harmed.

This type of conduct is highly indicative of the use of PCP, bath salts
or other hallucinogenic chemicals.

Excellent!
