"Chief Wilson wants to nail the bastards who killed the poor lady in Montgomery, Al.. " Well the Chief had his chance to nail the bastards in Ala. What happened to the cop's guns? They had 2 or 3 murderers in their sights and managed to do nothing to stop them....I think Chief has a lot of explaining or CYA to do!

That is not the fault of our police or of the Chief - it is the fault of our illustrious Mayor bobby NOT SO bright. HE has instituted a policy that basically ties our polices hands -- they must be "in danger of their life" or another person "must be in imminent danger" for our cops to shoot a suspect. If the suspect is running they must subdue him/her/them -- if they shoot them they LOSE THEIR JOB!

We have a liberal pipsquek suck up to the "underpriviledged" mayor. Their was a shooting of a Black Teen right after he took over - the kid had beaten an old woman and was running from the cops, I don;t remember all the details, but he was shot and it turned out the only weapon he had was a knife.

I agree w/ you. What kind of Chief has Rules of Engagement that forbid officers from firing their weapons at suspects fleeing a possible DOUBLE HOMICIDE?
