Don't run. Stop, when the Police tell you. It will increase your life expectancy.

I agree with that. If I kept running from the NYPD when they told me to stop I would look like swiss cheese.

They were plainclothed officers.

This whole story is just FUBAR. It is sad because we are dealing with a population that is terrified and completely on the edge and a police force that is desperate to perform the nearly impossible task of stopping a terrorist act before it occurs.

A completely innocent man who has nothing to do with terrorists or their filthy religion was killed and that is a tragedy. Meanwhile, the real terrorists are laughing as British cops become reluctant to challange terror suspects for fear of repeating this mistake.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Uh...stop in Portuguese is "para". The police didn't say "stop" in the right language. I think the police could use some language training.

Even though I believe Brazilians speak Portugese as their primary language, you'd expect him to understand "STOP" in English.

Holy moly - what was he thinking?

With me it's yes sir, no sir, "cooperation are me" even for a traffic stop.

I can't tell you the times I've seen guys argue with a cop. I just want the warning ticket or the signature on the fender bender report so I can get on with my life.
