I work with someone who lived up the road from him. Not many tears were shed outside his family and gang who terrorise everyone in the area when he was shot

Each to their own, mate.

Back to the cops with guns issue, all cops over here carry guns and you know not to fuck with them, as they will fuck you up. Hence, we have very few times when cops do have to shoot.

Over here, our police usually don't carry guns, so they don't shoot anyone. When an armed officer does, there's an investigation, thank God. We don't get "fucked up" when we are unarmed, usually.

As left wing as i am, i think all cops should be armed.

Whereas I am also left wing and don't.
I would,however,allow anal probing where appropriate.

Luckily enough, where you are, they are. Luckily for me, where I am, they're not. Everyone's a winner.

Jean Charles De Menezes was not carrying a weapon of any kind.
I think most legal professionals would view this as unarmed.
Subjectivity doesn't come into it.
An innocent man was killed.
The enquiry may well establish the motivation as to why he was killed,but the fact that he was innocent and unarmed automatically means that it was an error of judgement.

It's also, cough cough, "possible" he was off his tits on coke. Things aren't always clear cut but it was a accumulation of errors.

In fairness mate,I have been off my tits on coke in the past,but was hardly expecting an armed tactical aid response team to come storming through my front door to shoot me dead for it.

That's a good point well made. I guess it just all contributed to a crap outcome for him.

When it becomes acceptable for the police to shoot suspected drug dealers it won't end there though will it ? Next it will be acceptable to shoot violent people who are drunk, how long before rowdy crowds of football fans are controlled with increased violence ?
In the City there's a thousand men in uniforms....

It does stop there though doesn't it. They shot a CONVICTED drug dealer who was a suspected murderer with intel that he had been to purchase a gun. Now only a few people know what happened but he was off his nut and told to stop but didn't. The police believed he had a gun and shot him.
That is a very rare circumstance in this country i have never seen an armed policeman at football match

I'm centre right and dont either.

Ps - bellbuzzer, any chance of an answer?

 

[dannybcity]

That does not answer the question.

Yes it does, they made a mistake and shot a man dead which supports my original point that police shouldn't be using live ammunition.

What should the police around Toulouse be carrying at the moment?

What's that got to do with British police?

when the gas, electric, telecom, rail and water industries were given away, bills have sky-rocketed, infra-structure investment is non-existent and jobs and services have been decimated, or out-sourced to the third world.
The post-office, roads and NHS will be exactly the same.
This year, when disposable income for the vast majority of the population is diminishing faster than at any time since the war, share-holder dividends are higher than at any time since the first world war. More than 50% of shares are owned by less than 5% of the population.
The general public, under the influence of a ruthless media, is sleep-walking into a nightmare return to the horrors of victorian england.
As a taste of the delights to come, a visit to a doctor in Orlando cost $300, a tube of Zovirax( £5-50 in the UK) $103. No wonder the NHS is seen as the ultimate cash cow by the tories.
A revolt needs a focus or at least a leader. A politicised media and police/intelligence service will make sure it never happens.

I'd love to see your source for more than 50% of shares being held by less than 5%.

Also about dividends being higher than at any time since WW1.

I say that as you made them up and they are not true though I'd love for the dividend bit to be true, it would make my working life much easier.

Well?

It's not that rare, as this thread has pointed out it's happened twice in recent years.
