LOL. <br /><br />My thing is that there was some truth to what Bill Cosby used to say. Ok, now that it turns out he's a serial rapist or something now it can be dismissed but you know, if you're not stealing a pound cake you stand less chance of being shot. <br /><br />The victim of Van Dyke was running away from the police after having broken into cars. It's hard to see him as a pure victim. <br /><br />Ok, I don't think this deserves to be followed by 22 shots but still, resisting arrest is never a good idea. <br /><br />I worry that criminal behaviour is almost being legitimized.Mike Saxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01360689916550576484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6480818427597300387.post-73808066109770008622015-12-09T11:58:22.292-08:002015-12-09T11:58:22.292-08:00In the spirit of being un-PC, I'm going to lay...In the spirit of being un-PC, I'm going to lay down a compliment here you probably won't read anyplace else, but I feel it has to be said: For all his faults (including almost certainly first degree murder, and probably racism), nobody can say that police officer Jason Van Dyke isn't an excellent shot! Pardon the pun, but shoot! I can guess what gun he used: probably a <a href="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/28/GLOCK_19.JPG" rel="nofollow">Glock 19</a>: a mid-sized side arm with a 4" barrel (as opposed to the full sized <a href="http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/takenfilm/images/7/7b/Glock17-CA-2.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20140408181856" rel="nofollow">Glock-17</a> with a 4.5" barrel, and two extra rounds in the standard sized magazine). 9mm. Double stack magazine with capacity of 15, plus 1 in the chamber (16 rounds total capacity). Van Dyke emptied the full magazine in what? 5 seconds? And he didn't miss once! And though McDonald was close (and McDonald clearly wasn't in any position to return fire), he wasn't point blank. Considering the excitement of the moment and all... that's not bad.<br /><br />OK, I know that sounds sick, and it is sick, but I haven't heard that anyplace else, and just felt it needed to be said. (And no, I didn't check stormfront.com ... I have a feeling they would have beat me to it).Tom Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17654184190478330946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6480818427597300387.post-52649395058272072292015-12-09T09:56:19.469-08:002015-12-09T09:56:19.469-08:00Yes, we'll see if and when there is a real bac...Yes, we'll see if and when there is a real backlash against all this.
