Not close at all. Totally devoid of celebration. I expect better from you.

Not my job to get shot

Not my job to get cut.

Not my job to get bit by a dog.

Sorry. Shame on whoever or whatever tries.

When it comes to my life and health....it takes priority.

This is the world we live in. Individual threatens officer(s) with a knife, and the people who defended themselves are the ones being vilified.

quote:

She was three months pregnant with her fifth child, they said, and too “tiny” for officers to have felt threatened by her — even if she had a knife.


This is irrelevant. You don't know what someone is capable of and I'd rather the innocent parties be 100% certain in defense of their lives than having to take a chance on someone breaking the law by being the aggressor with a weapon.

2017 America spends far too much time looking for ways to sympathize with trash.

They should have just hit pause like I do when watching LivePD. Then they could have gotten her a proper psychiatric evaluation.

Or they could have shot the rivets out of the knife handle so the blade would hit the ground. She would have been left holding just the handle, feeling dumb and crazy.

Exactly, I stated a fact, what he reads into it is a product of his own mind.

If they had tazed her the same people would be bitching about tazing a pregnant woman. Seattle already had to deal with a lawsuit from the police tazing a pregnant woman.


That's what I don't get about people when they say cops shouldn't use firearms. They use a tazer people are going to cry brutality. They use pepper spray they will cry brutality. They use physical force they call brutality and god forbid they beat someone with a baton nowadays. What do people want them to do when each use of force option is going to be called police brutality and racist?

Are cops even allowed to carry them and use them on another human any more?

Psychologist, and I think we just need to observe him for now in case he exhibits any other signs of antisocial behavior. Unless he makes an explicit threat against an identified individual, my hands are tied.

Yes, lets have a mentally ill woman right next us with a knife. Sounds like a solid choice.

Probably not

quote:

The Seattle Police Department has been operating under a federal consent decree since 2012, when a Department of Justice investigation found that officers used regular and widespread excessive force on the job, reported the Seattle Times.

A court-ordered federal monitor issued a report in April asserting that the department had made a positive turnaround and that use of force by officers was down, reported the Times.
