If you want to piss off a conservative, lie to him.
If you want to piss off a liberal, tell him the truth.
It took that long to debate the obvious?It took a six-woman jury one hour to make its ruling following nearly five hours of testimony.
After watching the video that was one lucky officer, this should never have gone to trial
When you have to shoot, shoot. Don't talk.

If I'm right the gun misfired on the first shot,I can hear a click,I bet they wanted to eat their free lunch before reaching a verdict

The click of the revolver's hammer hitting a previously fired round was audible in the recording.
Good ending to a bad situation.

Yea, there is NO doubt about intent of the drunk perp here. Ironic to think that the cop was probably saved by this guy being drunk in this one
Light travels faster than sound...thats why some people appear bright before they speak

Glad to hear it but this should have never made it to trial.

Here's something from a real MORON who wants LEO's to shoot only arms and legs...
ALBANY -- A bill in the Assembly would change drastically police policy in New York State in the way officers use their weapons.
The bill, sponsored by Assemblywoman Annette Robinson (D-Bedford-Stuyvesant), would instruct police and peace officers to use their weapons only with the intent to stop and not to kill a person.
“There is no justification for terminating another's life when a less extreme measure may accomplish the same objective,” states a memo that accompanies the bill.
Officers would instead be instructed to try to shoot a suspect in the arm or the leg.
“In recent years, the killing of criminal suspects by police has focused the public attention on how police respond when the suspect is a member of an ethnic minority,” the memo states. “The issue is highly controversial, with critics accusing the police of racism while supporters deny any racism and assert that the killings have been in good faith or an unfortunate mistake.”
And officer who did kill with that intent would not be penalized, according to the proposed legislation.
Police work is guided by the use of force continuum.
Lethal force, according to the National Institute of Justice, should only be used “if a suspect poses a serious threat to the officer or another individual.”
I wish I had an Uzi when I went to high school and had to wait for a bus and take the subway in Bedford-Stuyvesant. That was 50 years ago. I'm sure it has gotten a lot better since then...NOT

I'm just one root in a grassroots organization. No one should assume that I speak for the VCDL.
I am neither an attorney-at-law nor I do play one on television or on the internet. No one should assumes my opinion is legal advice.

That's right judge, I tried to shoot him in his arms and legs, but he kept moving so the bullets ended up COM, go figure!
