shot and killed dumbass not just shot and injured.

thats fuckin stupid to take someones life because they were scared of a traffic ticket. its dumb to think that way but not to loose your life over it. your crazy

hell yea

[kelly marie]

shot and killed dumbass not just shot and injured.

thats fuckin stupid to take someones life because they were scared of a traffic ticket. its dumb to think that way but not to loose your life over it. your crazy

so you are telling me that if someone is running.. and they are in a car chase.. and they have a head on collision with your family memeber or friend you would be ok with that? why not take them out while you can.. then they don't put anyone else's life in danger.. and we have another criminal off the streets.. and more than likely they are running for more charges than being scared of a traffic violation..

[Tasuki_Civic]

personaly i think its sad to hear shit like that......i got robbed by an AK and we called the police.

the guys ran but the officers didnt shoot at them the cornered them in(where they were in tha woods) and hand cuffed them. no shooting and i wouldnt feel god unless their ass was in jail. not shot. i would have raised hell if i heard they were dead. that shit it not right.

( and even nif i got injusred i would want them in jail for life) and if they got out "nature will take its course" but i dont think its te police job to shoot and kill pple because they run. police are people as well.

Also, what if they are drunk?? makes it 100x worse. Plus, we the taxpayers would probably have to pay for the fuckers well being after he commits vehicular mansluaghter....although there is a difference in a leg and a head shot

[kelly marie]

im not saying to shoot someone if they are just commiting a misdemeanor.. that isn't right.. but if my life (or the police officers life) is in danger i feel it's ok.. to each his own right..

plus if a weapon is drawn (from the suspect) the officer has every right to shoot if they feel their life is threatened! i don't blame them one bit..

[2.0civic]

Tasuki, straying off topic a little but still the same concept, how do you feel about school shootings?? do you think if police got in and could take out the gunmen before they killed more people, should they??

[kelly marie]

Also, what if they are drunk?? makes it 100x worse. Plus, we the taxpayers would probably have to pay for the fuckers well being after he commits vehicular mansluaghter....although there is a difference in a leg and a head shot

exactly.. but see my last post.. if the suspect pulls out a weapon they are forced to shoot.. for their safety.. but yea if they shoot them just because they felt like it.. that is wrong

[2.0civic]

this is all pretty much news to me but if the officers were at fault, they would be suspended/fired without pay. What are the situations where these people ran?? were any of them misdemeanors without weapons?

[kelly marie]

i honestly don't know.. i caught a little of the story from the shooting this morning.. hang on let me post it..

Suspect in fatal carjacking killed by police

Published on: 10/03/06

One man was killed and another wounded by DeKalb County police early Tuesday in a shootout that followed a fatal carjacking in Atlanta and police chase in DeKalb.

The carjacking suspect was the 10th person to be fatally shot by DeKalb police this year, and the 11th to die in a confrontation with county police.

• Map of Tuesday's carjacking, chase and fatal finish



Ponce de Leon Avenue was closed east of Moreland Avenue during Tuesday's morning commute, creating long traffic tieups and clogging other secondary roads into Atlanta. The road reopened after the morning commute.

The stolen vehicle, a Chevy Tahoe, struck a street sign and spun out on Ponce de Leon at Oakdale Road, and officers boxed it in, DeKalb police spokesman Jason Gagnon said.

As the officers approached the vehicle, "the driver raised his arm, and he had a weapon in his hand," Gagnon said.

"He fired several shots from the vehicle, and the officers returned fire, striking both the driver and the passenger," Gagnon said.

The driver died at the scene, and the passenger was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital in critical condition. Their names were not immediately available.

The Tahoe was stolen about 1:40 a.m. on Richardson Street in Atlanta, according to Atlanta police dispatchers. They said the Tahoe driver was fatally shot in the chest and pulled from the truck.

The Fulton County Medical Examiner's office identified the Tahoe driver as Daniel Sanchez, 34, of Union City.

The Tahoe was equipped with an OnStar tracking device, and about 5:15 a.m., OnStar operators notified DeKalb police that the vehicle was in the area of Memorial Drive and Columbia Drive, said Gagnon, the DeKalb spokesman.

DeKalb police spotted the SUV, with two men inside, a short time later, and began a chase that went in both directions on I-285 before heading toward downtown Atlanta on surface streets.

None of the four DeKalb officers involved in the shooting was injured, Gagnon said. The officers were placed on administrative leave.

The traffic jams created because of the closing of Ponce de Leon Avenue -- a major route into downtown from DeKalb County -- forced officials at the private Paideia School on South Ponce de Leon Avenue at Oakdale Road to delay the opening of classes for an hour, a school spokeswoman said.

Nick Marinelli, DeKalb's interim police chief, has started a review of the spate of police shootings.

too many bullets.....


not enough guns......

Dekalb's motto?

[2.0civic]

i honestly don't know.. i caught a little of the story from the shooting this morning.. hang on let me post it..

thats another point i was about to make....people get all pissed off cause shit happens and they dont know what the fuck happened. Everyone is entitled to opinions but when you say "they didnt deserve to die" look at the WHOLE situation, not just the cop firing a round.


Darwinism at its best

[kelly marie]

i can understand where both of you are coming from but with having family in military, look at it like this when it comes to weapons being drawn....You or me....and i dont feel like dying today..

yep.. one of my best friends is serving in iraq for the second time.. so crap like this makes me take a different view on things..

lol i wasnt talking about this situation specificaly.. i was talking in general..

All a few people in here read is this

Please read the entire thing before posting shit that you dont know

[2.0civic]

yep.. one of my best friends is serving in iraq for the second time.. so crap like this makes me take a different view on things..

had some things not came up at the last minute before i signed papers, i would be over there now

[2.0civic]

so there is MORE than enough evidence that this guy got what was coming


Lets recap....Stole a car, apparently shot someone or somthing, hence the FATAL carjacking part, led cops down busy streets endangering lives of many, brandished a weapon at a cop....


And you think we should give these people time to kill others....LIRL, people that do thingslike this are the reason im glad im not military to defend these dumbasses freedoms

[R.Kelly]

i think that if they are endangering lives shoot them instead of sending them to jail.....a box of 9 mm shells = 10$...............a prisoner in jail = a shit load of $

[toonz]

Yeah some people pulled weapons but some didn't but c'mon I'll understand for the one's that pulled weapons but officers are trained to shoot they don't have to kill I don't think the killings were all that necessary

[{X}Echo419]

there's a little moe to this than, run=shot. if the suspect has killed someone, has a gun, or "acts in an agressive manner" police can respond to "Stop the agressive action" (that's verbatium of the law).

I'm willing to bet that once(if not already) the words gets out that Dekalb police aren't taking any shit from these violent criminals that people will do their dirty deeds somewhere else.

[2.0civic]

Yeah some people pulled weapons but some didn't but c'mon I'll understand for the one's that pulled weapons but officers are trained to shoot they don't have to kill I don't think the killings were all that necessary

Ever had a gun pointed at you?? At that point, training goes out the window and instinct takesover.


do you have any links to your proof that the other assailants didn't have weapons?? You are correct, police are trained shooters and i dont think they would kill 11 unarmed suspects in a small time frame

i think that if they are endangering lives shoot them instead of sending them to jail.....a box of 9 mm shells = 10$...............a prisoner in jail = a shit load of $

well said. hell, it cost more for the average prisoner to be sheltered than i make a year.

well i feel sorry for the victim and maybe the suspects needed to be delt with but what about the other 9 they killed some were not armed with weapons

[2.0civic]

Toonz, you arent even old enough to have a pistol....why you worried??

[2.0civic]

did you just bold the part where THE DRIVER OF THE HIGHJACKED CAR GOT SHOT to prove a point he didnt have to die?? Well he didnt have to steal the guys car either. get a god damn job

[babygurl]

shot and killed dumbass not just shot and injured.

thats fuckin stupid to take someones life because they were scared of a traffic ticket. its dumb to think that way but not to loose your life over it. your crazy

First tiem I am ever disagreeing with you...It fucking stupid for that person, to be scared of a traffic ticket, who run, and almost slams into cars, or people walking. People that are desperate do stupid shit. They deserve to get shot, for running from the cops, for putting peoples life in danger..

The fuckers deserve whatever comes to it.

[2.0civic]

well i feel sorry for the victim and maybe the suspects needed to be delt with but what about the other 9 they killed some were not armed with weapons

give links. Ive already dismantled this one. Suspect got what was coming, end of story. Prove your point, dont just make statements that you cant back up. Thats like all these 12 second civics people have.....

[2.0civic]

Well said babygurl, if they were the ones hit and killed, their opinions wouldnt matter anyway but i bet they would want the fucker dead then.....
