Video shows terror suspect laughing, taunting cops as they gun him down
NY Post ^ | 8/18/2017 | Lia Eustachewich

This is the dramatic moment a terror suspect in Cambrils gets shot — and then stands back up — before he is put down for good by Spanish cops.

The man taunted and smiled at police before he was repeatedly shot in the street during what one witness described as being like a scene from a movie.

“It was like watching a horror film, particularly when he jumped back up after being shot and started laughing at the police,” Fitzroy Davies, who was at a beachside restaurant in the Catalonia resort when chaos unfolded, told the Express and Star. “I can’t get that out of my mind. He must have been on something after taking that many shots.”

The disturbing recording shows the suspect — who was one of five killed during gunfights with police — fall after being shot, then get back up before he’s finally shot to death.

Davies, a judo coach from Wolverhampton, England, said the crazed man appeared to have something “silvery” over his body, like a suicide vest, and was holding something in his hand that made people start fleeing the area.

“[Police] were backing off and he was smiling at them as he charged towards them. He was behaving strangely, like he was on drugs,” he recalled. “Ranting and raving as he went up and down the street. Then they fired again and he fell down. This time he stayed down.”

People simply can’t grasp what needs to be done to fight these bloodthirsty automatons.

Theatrics are fine, as long as the villain bites the DUST!

“a terror suspect ... taunted and smiled at police before he was repeatedly shot in the street.”

Wrap him in pig fat and bacon and drop him onto the house of his family in whatever hellhole he came from. Then have a really big taunt and laugh.

When we went on liberty in Spain, we were told explicitly not to mess around with the Spanish Guardia Civil, back in those days, they wore black knee high boots, jodhpurs, campaign belts and fancy tri-corner hats. Not to mention the submachine guns.

Petty Officer Cook told us not to get caught pissing behind a dumpster at 2:00 AM by them.

I looked them up to refresh my memory of their uniforms, and they look completely feminized now. Now they can kill you out of stupidity and incompetence in addition to just being mean.

Islam is evil. Their strength of purpose comes from Satan.

That is how I see it.

To fight and especially to defeat such people, the level of violence that will be required is otherworldly.

I’m not sure if even 10% of the people have the stomach for the fight.

I really have my doubts.

In Charlottesville look at how many people leapt at the opportunity to say, “I’m conservative, but I’m not that car driver guy..!”

Apparently people want some groovy, ethereal, magical Force to come in and defeat their enemies.

well, that ain’t going to happen.

Very likely he was indeed on Captagon.

Plenty of “ALLAHU AKBARS” shouted

Why would he do that? I wonder what that could mean? Its a complete puzzle to me.

“I can’t get that out of my mind. He must have been on something after taking that many shots.”

Which is exactly why the .45 Caliber M1911 pistol was developed.

I like that turn of phrase.

Rather, the cowards want it done, not be told about it, and not have it inconvenience their lives.

Standard operating procedures. Bizarre by civilized standards, but not by theirs.

Right. The text in the article reads that it is a “disturbing” video. I didn’t find it disturbing in the slightest.

Here the cops would be in trouble for doing that.
