But there are also homeless people who want to trade a camera/mp3 player/PSP/etc for crack. Those are the criminals I am talking about.

Then they need to get a job. In this city, unlike most, tax dollars are poured into "social programs" to find these people work.

If you're clean, you re-join society and become productive. Its not like the opportunities aren't there.

Um.. do you know that bums don't give a fuk about their health. They shoot needles, and shot cum without washing their hands. Just that one knife could already consist of 10 permanent sickness.. such as HIV, AIDS, hepatitise C (ignor my bad spelling), rusted metal infection, etc. etc.

One slice of an infected knife is enough to turn you into something that everyone doesn't want to be around.

Come'on ppl, are you going to take the risk that the bum washes his hands after he pee? I'm not, so i'm going to save my own life.

Um... when the bum goes insane with a weapon.. that's something you don't want to "risk".

thats why i said to many factors :p fuck no, i am never getting stabbed by a bum.. if a juunky tried to stab me with a knife, id probaly throw something at him and run!! :)

Someone obviously gets their education on TV alone. Like someone already mentioned an example earlier, unlike what you see TV or movies, people don't always die on 1 shot, nor is it always debilitating.

err to many video games and movies :p i guess not all police have the fire + knifing awesomeness i have in CoD :D

I don't really see why people ever make a fuss about the number of gunshots. The use of deadly force is for that exact intend, make something dead. Fire until they stop moving imho.

too bad they were woman cops. Otherwise, if they were men, they should've skeet (cum shot) into the bum's eyes and then shot him. that would've been funny

VPD is not RCMP.

RCMP you can join when you're 19, VPD tells you to go get a degree and come back when you're 25.

No doubt there is more to this story than "homeless man holds knife and gets shot"

Blame it on the media.

when cops shoot, they shoot to kill.. not mame.

there would be even more public outcry if he shot him in the kneecaps.

They do not shoot to kill. They shoot to hit.

We don't know the facts yet, so we shouldn't pass any judgement yet.

Here's a thought. Maybe the cop deleted the cell phone video, after making a copy of it. It could've been deleted because the officer didn't want the video to be distributed for WHATEVER reasons - not necessarily for nefarious or selfish reasons.

you can shoot someone in the leg and they would still die if you sever the femoral artery
this guy deserved to die....charge a cop with a knife what do u expect

when I first read the story, I thought...a homeless guy holding a knife trying to break into a car got shot.....pfff...big deal

then you get this :eek: http://www.cbc.ca/canada/british-col...g.html?ref=rss

honestly, I really believed the shooting was justified. I don't think an officer would pull his gun out and shoot a guy if he or she doesn't genuinely feel threaten...it is not like taser where they know the it wasn't meant to be fatal (death from taser = accident, death from gun = intentional)

Then you get this report on the officer deleting the video evidence...
hopefully it is like someone mentioned earlier that the officer was just making a backup for herself and delete the original to try to prevent the video from flowing into youtube and such.

Hmmm, a marijuana activist who claims the VPD erased the video from his cell phone.

this is what happens to the officer if you dont react accordingly to the situation

I bet the guy didn't even videotape it... just trying to make the cops look bad.

Anti-establishmentarianism is the new fad. Kinda like the Che Guevara T-Shirts.

Deputy Kyle Dinkheller, Laurens County, GA, was minutes from being off duty when he
encountered a speeding pickup truck going 98 mph. The deputy was an ICE (Interstate
Criminal Enforcement) officer that dealt with traffic infractions, speeding and the occasional
drug bust. This was a low risk or unknown risk stop for speeding. He radioed in the speeding infraction, made a U-turn in the median and pursued the vehicle.

The driver, Andrew Brannan, stopped his vehicle, exited and started a crazy, dancing jig in
the middle of the road while swearing at the officer and shouting �I�m a god-damned
Vietnam vet.� At first, he ignored Dinkheller�s commands to step towards the deputy, which always began with `Sir�.

When he finally complied, he attacked the deputy and a scuffle ensued. The deputy
implemented the use of his asp and ordered Brannan to `get back�. This procedure was
repeated, but after what appeared to be a second scuffle, the suspect returned to his vehicle and retrieved a M-I Carbine from under the seat. The first shots were fired nearly 50 seconds after Brannan returned to his vehicle despite the deputy�s commands.

Brannan ignored the repeated commands to put the gun down and Deputy Dinkheller
apparently fired the first shot. Brannan, a Vietnam veteran, advanced firing on the deputy.
Dinkheller returned fire, but succeeded only in breaking a window in the driver�s side of the
pickup and wounding Brannan in the stomach. Using `suppressive fire�, Brannan
systematically, methodically shot Dinkheller in the arms, legs, exposed areas that would not be covered had Dinkheller been wearing a bulletproof vest, slowly executing him. Reloading his weapon Brannan continued firing with the final death shot to Dinkheller�s right eye.

Another article, http://www.odmp.org/officer/15034-de...yne-dinkheller :

Quote:

Deputy Dinkheller was shot and killed after pulling over a man on a rural road about 6 miles north of Dublin, Georgia. During the traffic stop he called in for backup. Before the backup arrived he was shot by the man with a rifle. He was able to return fire, striking the suspect in the stomach. The suspect was found during a search the next morning and taken into custody.

The entire incident was videotaped by a camera in Deputy Dinkheller's patrol car. On January 28, 2000, the suspect was found guilty of murder and was sentenced to death two days later.

Deputy Dinkheller is survived by his expectant wife and 22-month-old daughter. Deputy Dinkheller's son was born in early September 1998.

Something just doesn't add up. Watching the news tonight, they interviewed the marijuana activist that supposed recorded the shooting incident on his cell phone. He claims that a police officer asked him for his camera, then gave it back and told him "to get lost" and when he checked his phone, the video was gone.

I don't know much about the judicial system, but I would think that any witnesses to the incident would have/should have been interviewed right then and there or at the police station.
Secondly, if evidence was erased, shouldh't the police take his phone and have their electrical forensic team try to recover the lost video. Instead, Global news is paying Sherloc forensics to attempt to recover said video.
Lastly, the guy is attiment that the oifficers were at no harm the guy with the "xacto-utility knife" did not charge at them.

It's either the police were very stupid and tried to cover something up, or this guy has some other motive for everything he has said/done.

Lawyer says man shot and killed by VPD was not robbery suspect

See this is the problem police policing police. Giving the cellphone to a 3rd party forensics company is the only way we can get a truthful answer that isnt tainted by the police.

CAll me a skeptic, but a marijuana activist that produces T-shirts for a living, teaming up with B.C. Civil Liberties Association executive director David Eby doesn't scream honesty.

Or maybe too much conspiracy theory for me. :cry:

unless the guy was a zombie or chuck norris there was no need for 4 shots...
as destruction of evidence thats just retardedd
