    I sent a whiteboarder I've dealt with before a PM about a month before CC Hicks was in the AZ store.

    Still hasn't replied. [img]graemlins/whatever.gif[/img]

    Thank God that Andyman came through for me, though.

    <font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I think he came close, but never actually managed to run over anyone. there was footage of his car veering towards a crowded sidewalk. He never made it over the curb, though, and all of the pedestrians were several feet away.

    He almost hit a father and daughter; that was shown.

    The dad grabbed the girl and got out of the way.

    The first time they shot at him he fell down and dropped it (you can see it skid across the pavement), then he rolled over and made a move like he was reaching for something in his waistband. I don't think it was a huge stretch of logic for them to think he was reaching for another gun. Don't get me wrong, 120 shots is obviously way excessive! But I do think it's too easy to sit back and analyze/criticize how a situation went down after the fact (and not having actually been there) and come to the conclusion that the police shouldn't have shot.

    Generally speaking, I don't think the police should necessarily have to wait until they are actively fired upon to shoot at a suspect they believe to be an imminent threat. Again, there is no way that many shots were justified in this situation, but I know that I wouldn't want to be a cop standing there in the position of having to make a split second decision whether or not what some suspect was holding (or reaching for) was a gun.

    I tried to talk about this in school, but strangely, it seems I'm the only one that's heard of this. [img]confused.gif[/img]

    That is somewhat disheartening. It is/was a relatively well publicized story given the "live shooting" aspect and the debate it got going about the media covering chases live in general.
