LeazesMag 0 Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 Failed car bomb was not al-Qaeda plot, says NY mayor - beeb There is no evidence the failed attempt to detonate a car bomb in New York was the work of al-Qaeda or any other big terrorist group, the city's mayor says. I think it was BP running a distraction exercise me sel like one good thing about the yanks is if they get who did it they won't pussy foot around with them like we do. and the guns, they're good too... right? yep, I'd shoot them without a moments hesitation. Yeah! Shoot them all. That's makes us better... right? for shooting terrorists ? No. It gets rid of them. End of story. So you'd have a trial by jury first? depends on the circumstances. If its a situation whereby you need to shoot them then do it. I'm not interested in debating the road of "make sure they are armed" or any of this other bollocks either, which is do gooder nonsense. In the heat of the moment its either kill or be killed. If someone runs away, then you presume they are guilty and shoot before they detonate. If only someone would presume you were guilty Guilty of what ? I knew you - and others - would disagree with that, but I'm sorry such things are instant life or death decisions and in the case of the Brazilian, mistakes are made but it was his own fault. If a cop, especially told me to stand still etc I certainly wouldn't run away. Would you ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone runs away, then you presume they are guilty and shoot before they detonate. Have to agree with Leazes here. We have to make the best decision that we can overall to protect people, sometimes we'll fuck it up and someone innocent dies. That probably ends up being the right mathematical outcome though. We have to accept that we are pretty fucking stupid, especially as we try to organise bigger and bigger populations, but we do the best we can. I just don't feel that liberals accept that very well.

One caveat I would have about my above statement re this. I assume we don't always act rationally in this spot and maybe fight or flight mechanism kicks in? I have no clue but there must be some studies out there. Obviously if people were commonly compelled to run when cops pointed a gun at them, that would be a huge problem.

By all means have an inquest but the security services need to be supported in their actions which are made in good faith to protect the public. Totally agree, tragic accident. You can't blame the bloke who was shot though, that was my point.

You wander oput your house on the way to catch a bus which you start running for as it's approaching your stop and you doubt you'll make it, they shout over to you "Stop", and either you don't here them or presume the shout is not for you.

Park Life 71 Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 So what happens Leazes, if the coppers get intel that you're a threat, so they come looking for you. You wander oput your house on the way to catch a bus which you start running for as it's approaching your stop and you doubt you'll make it, they shout over to you "Stop", and either you don't here them or presume the shout is not for you. They shoot you and you die. is that ok? Sounds pukka to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJS 4411 Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 how about pissing off back to where their allegiance really lies, and putting on a uniform ? Instead of coming here and fighting their "undercover" jihad ? Against undercover SAS soldiers illegally operating in "their" country? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 22001 Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 If these scumbags [ie terrorists, not just muslim terrorists] had the balls to stand in the open and fight like men instead it would make it more of an open game. Blame them, not our cops etc. That's a bit daft, how would they do that? Arrange for a fight at 2 o'clock at Hyde Park? Three men armed with fertilizer bombs against 10,000 British soldiers with tanks and planes? I hate terrorism as much as the next man but I can see the logic of assymetrical warfare and it tends to work in the end - Northern Ireland is a point in hand. You've levelled the same accusations of cowardice against the insurgents in Iraq and Afghanistan in the past as well, but by that definition the French resistance in WW II would be cowards too. how about pissing off back to where their allegiance really lies, and putting on a uniform ? Instead of coming here and fighting their "undercover" jihad ? Because they can do a lot more damage here? Anyway it's a long time since warfare was fought under Marquess of Queensberry rules, it's a dirty business whoever is fighting. And these deluded, brainwashed fuckers really believe it is a war, that's their mentality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
