They’re trying to figure out what to put on the greeting card to say how sorry they are they arrested him.

Other than the blood shed it’s somewhat entertaining.
All these eggheads trying to make us perfect by disarming the innocent.

Plus, Canada has full on gun control. The cop wasnt really afraid for his own life.

One US-based academic told the BBC that the officer would have had a "duty" to kill the suspect, if the object he was pointing was a gun.The reporter read that somewhere.
He wrote it down and then he read it.
Unnamed US-based academic would be an idiot, if he existed.

The only thing that makes liberals as happy as saving a guilty killer is killing an innocent unborn child.

Unless that cop had a good enough look to be *certain* that what the guy was holding was,in fact,harmless he was negligent in not dropping the guy.

because peace officers in other countries are trained to believe citizens are normal.
In the US, peace officers are trained to consider citizens to be a hostile enemy that needs to be put down.

The Canadians have allowed a whole new breed of criminal into their country. It’s time for them to respond or quite a few police officers are going to be laying in the street.
This one was lucky!

I imagine that he was not holding a gun, so it was a lot easier to be calm. However, facts and reporting does get in the way of this articles agenda.

And yet WaPo is not calling for van-control. Nor for shutting down the Canadian Automobile Association.

Canadian police officer fatalities are likely on the rise or will be soon due to an influx of violent Muslim extremists.

I guess the point being we don’t have enough dead cops in the last couple of years. Whats a few more?No. I think the point is that the cops in Canukistan don't have itchy trigger fingers that freak out when they get an opportunity to shoot someone/something. Nothing wrong with that.
