ah that is NYC
no, not the cop - i don't know enough to comment
but "strange" people doing "weird" things - yes, oh yes

There just has to be a better answer then killing people. :(

that i agree with!!

the question being raised was why no taser ?

was that the best plan?

the basic problem - what should police do when dealing with people who are having a mental crisis?

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Exactly, the taser should have come before a gun. :(
Especially as they apparently were familiar with this lady and her problems. :o

Oh man - they are just so batty these "shoot first answers later" police jerks.

There really has to be a better answer then shooting/killing people. Like somebody said, why didn't he use his stun gun?

[davesmusictank.livejournal.com]

Absolutely. Safer and less terminal.

Sadly it doesn't fit the gun mentality of this country. :o
