This is why more cops should be killed

cops at least good ones know when they are in danger and when someone is holding a hose.
When do you assclowns call something murder, when they don't have a badge:whoa:

Now see, there's the problem.

He wasn't "holding a hose"; unlike you, who obviously will hold anyone's "hose".
 
I hope they are fired, and I hope some more like them get killed.
They took up positions (to protect themselves) then fired when they felt justified.
 
Topspin said:
yes
they are murderers
some drunk dude playing with a fucking hose deserves to be shot.
Child please
it's no wonder we have over 17,000 murders, gun nuts think anyone with a gun and a nervous feeling is justified in shooting.

Go back and either re-read the article or have an adult read it and explain it to you; because nowhere in the article does it say he was HOLDING A HOSE, you fucking dumbass.
 
usmoron a nozzle
they took up positions (to protect themselves), they should have told him to drop it or wait for backup.

Why shouldn't the cops have given the guy a chance to drop what he had before they fired on him?

The article said police were called to the site. Let's say they drove over and were inside or stooping behind the police car. They could have pointed their guns at him and told him to drop whatever was in his hand before they fired.

So if I go into a bank and simulate that I have a gun, but don't really, then I haven't really committed armed robbers; in your understanding??

Had to edit this; becuase the dumbass Topshit found it necessary to negative rep me and call me a moron.
I guess he found his argument falling apart and couldn't figure out how to pull his head out of his ass.
Haters are going to hate, dumbasses are always going to be dumbasses, and you are a dumbass.

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

More proof that you're a dumbass, have always been a dumbass, and will always be a dumbass.

Embrace yourself for being a dumbass and it will help you understand why you're such a failure.

They were on site for 5 or 10 minutes, I think. And were trying to set up containment. The problem was that there was a fear he would start shooting at other apartments. The article said he had been pointing it at them.

this is a possibility, i wasn't in the situation and if a reasonable person would believe their life in imminent danger, then they are justified in self-defense....

i really think we need more facts, like was teh guy saying anything, making any other motions....its a split second decision, if the guy knew they were there, and then pointed what looked like a gun at them and what neighbors said was a gun, then it is possible they believed the only way to protect their lives and possibly others was to fire first

The jury deliberated for one day before ruling that officers Jeffrey Shurtleff and Victor Ortiz were negligent and used excessive force when Zerby was shot and killed.

At the time, Zerby, 35, was on a friend’s porch in Belmont Shore, holding a water nozzle that a neighbor thought might be a gun.

Apparently, unbeknownst to Zerby, police arrived and surrounded the area.

When police say Zerby appeared to be pointing what they thought was a gun toward one of the officer’s positions, police opened fire.

Autopsy results revealed that Zerby was shot 12 times in the chest, arms and lower legs.

maybe THIS is one of those reasons that cops should WAIT to see what the person is holding or doing before opening fire, even if he wasn't 13.

But Long Beach Police Chief Jim McDonnell, who was in court for the verdict, said he was disappointed by the decision.

He says the officers were cleared in an internal probe and still defends their actions.

“Their actions, we believe, were in immediate defense of life,” McDonnell said. “That’s the way we judge — based on the circumstances known to them at the time."

guess not. that whole officer safety thing needs to be observed, especially if they panic at garden hoses.
