Very sad. <br /><br />I assure the 10:39 anonymous poster, taking a life in a case like this is the last thing to do, not the first. <br /><br />I applaud the police for the difficult job they have to do.

A sane person will more likely follow orders to drop it but that leaves the police with (a) insane person or (b) homicidal person as their choices. They don't have the luxury of the after the fact knowledge that the folks crying 'murderer' have. Those folks also do not have the benefit of hearing all that the suspect was saying to the police. My guess is it was no 'hi, I'm just crazy and don't know what I'm doing so you don't need to shoot me.'<br /><br />I want our police to get out of their cars AND I want them all to go home after their shift ends.Downtown Indyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06239811599722585898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-70690501462237154532015-12-13T10:53:16.760-05:002015-12-13T10:53:16.760-05:00That is one sad, sick individual posting crap.

If you were confronted by a crazy person with a knife you sure as hell wouldn't attempt to disarm a him tough guy. And believe it or not the police aren't paid to do that either. They are paid to go and confront situations like this so crazy guy with a knife doesn't attack you in your arm chair quarterback. They should be expected to be able go home at night to their families. Looks like they did everything they could to resolve it without shooting him before he lunged. They even tazed him which didn't work. Instead calling cops "pigs" for doing their jobs you should be thanking them and looking at the situation for what it was, an unfortunate incident caused by the actions of one disturbed man.

I can only surmise that you intentionally draw a false connection between this sad event and "Republicans"; to do so politicizes an event for which "politics" has zero bearing. You and your ilk are pathetic. You use the thinnest pretense of intellectual discourse to smear. This type of hypocritical hyperbole gets us nowhere.<br /><br />I am not a supporter of or an apologist for establishment RINO "Republicans" but your insidious, hateful, and unfair bullying remarks indicate people like you go to a dark place to do more harm than to begin healing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-15592512812061468752015-12-13T09:19:35.067-05:002015-12-13T09:19:35.067-05:00Gary, I agree with you.

I am no fan of the police state but it is an established fact that a person's actions motivated by mental illness and especially by powerful illicit drugs can be very difficult to control. Such a person may very well be a potential danger who must be stopped by all means possible for the safety of others.<br /><br />I am also no fan of police forces when this City's own corrupt mayor can break criminal and civil laws at his every turn and remain unshackled and "unsentenced" to prison. But to call police "pigs" and to judge them like this is not right. It's just not what a sensible person assessing the entire situation would say.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-71332329248268155022015-12-13T09:18:08.524-05:002015-12-13T09:18:08.524-05:00I know you don't, Gary, and that disturbs me a...I know you don't, Gary, and that disturbs me about you. Republicans justify killing under the thinnest pretenses.<br /><br />There was no reason to act, certainly not to kill. <br /><br />There were hundreds of non-lethal options, including hand-to-hand combat that the pigs employ routinely on the defenseless. When confronted with the mildest threat, the cops grab the guns and forget all about the Krav Maga.<br /><br />On the street, with real tough guys, this guy would have had his knife taken from him in about a second, and the crew would have been laughing while doing it.

This man is moving around erratically, and he's holding a knife, not a small straight edge razor. The report indicates police tried unsuccessfully to use a taser on him. He quite possibly could have been under the influence of a drug that made him very volatile. I don't see it the way you do, anon. 9:02. Sorry. Gary R.
