Breaking News!!! London police shoot innocent man in head 5 times

[Don Seer]

^ we don't have the death penalty here..

and MOST of the time police dont carry arms as guns are illegal here.. so they dont need to..

so what punishment do police in London receive for shooting and killing a completely innocent man?

they were acting under orders.

we are led to believe that.

1) the dude was wearing unseasonably large clothing.. its midsummer here.
2) he was followed from a suspected location
3) he was approached and RAN. then proceeded to go onto a subway AND illegally jumped the barrier gates. (to get a free ride..)


if the dude under suspicion refused to stop and ran onto on a subway they had pretty much no choice. the police were acting within their mandate and under the rules of engagement they have been given.

^lol just stop.

Eyewitnesses reported that up to twenty police officers in plain clothes pursued Menezes into Stockwell station, where he jumped over the ticket barrier, ran down an escalator and tried to jump onto a train. He was pushed to the floor of the carriage. Two officers pinned him down, while a third shot him five times in the head and neck with a handgun. He died at the scene.
 

dude wtf that isn't what normal police men would do. if those witnesses testify for that those cops could go to jail.

[mauzip]

and eh... dude spoke fluently English, lived in the same appartment complex as some of the terrorists and wore a winter jacket in summertime...

[Don Seer]

^ and his VISA allegedly ran out 4 months ago.. so he was in the country illegally..

[J Bananas]

so he was in the country illegally..

that son of a bitch

[Fuck You, Pay Me]

^ and his VISA allegedly ran out 4 months ago.. so he was in the country illegally..

LOL.. please tell me you're not saying that this gives the killing some sort of justification

[Don Seer]

no way.. but bear with me.

this has been cited as a possible reason he ran..
unfortunately for him they wanted him for reasons other than his visa..


another has been that he was attacked by a gang weeks ago n thought it was happening again..



running when confronted by the cops is what got him killed whatever the cause.

[mauzip]

this right here did make him look very suspicious

and eh... dude spoke fluently English, lived in the same appartment complex as some of the terrorists and wore a winter jacket in summertime...

the police did the right thing. what if he did have explosives under there?

[Don Seer]

yeah they're saying since he was brazilian that he'd be feeling the cold even on a hot english day

[mauzip]

Well... I know people from the desert that have been here on hot days and they were wearing T-shirts.

[Ðøšïå]

thats fucked up. i always run from the cops.  

[J Bananas]

yeah fuck the cops and german people too, they pretty close to cops.

You are a moron. Tell me exactly what you would have done if you were a police officer in that situation. Remember, this guy was living in a building under surveillance for terrorist activity, wearing a long coat in the middle of summer, and running through the subway system ignoring police calls to stop just days after a series of terrorist attacks.

Are you going to tell me you that if you were a cop you wouldn't have shot him? What if he had been an actual terrorist and the cops had not shot him.......and he ended up setting off a bomb and killling hundreds of innocent people? You probably would be complaining about the cops not doing their job and killing a terrorist when they had the chance.

It is so easy to bad mouth the cops when they have to make split second decisions. But you can't second guess them. If you want to blame anyone for this man's death, put the blame where it really belongs: the terrorists who have created this whole situation.
