In Thailand sticks is not considered as weapons, but eating tools - the size of the sticks reflects how hungry you are - CASE Edited November 27, 2017 by ttrd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would have used at least nine bullets in England and still jumped on him, so full marks to the cops this time!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madusa Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Too many people and a poorly done job at that. The police should have used shields two or three coming at him with shields there is not much he could do, just sandwich him tight and take his weapon away. Police should also get training with the long poles (chinese style martial art) if you are trained with this long poles no way he could come near you. One stroke behind knee and he would be kneeling down. It hurts but doesn't damage your body. Police should keep some long poles at their station just for this purpose. Long wood or rattan poles ) you only need to learn several moves with those long poles to disarm people you don't need to train for tournament. Within 2 days you are good for action that is how fast you can learn. I have seen it done and admire those movement, fast and efficient. If you have knife or even machete you don't stand a chance especially two guys coming at you same time. Are Thai police good at martial art?

Australia, he'd more than likely be dead. Not just the US. You don know Australia very well he would have been pepper sprayed then mabe tazered he nothing compared with someone on ice with no sticks. To fire a gun at him with all the people around wouldn't be bright Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would never have been shot for that in the U.K, get real, that goes on every Friday Saturday night up and down the country, but mostly in Essex and Middlesboro, Edited November 27, 2017 by Acemaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hgma Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 seems like Ya baa related...........anyway...in the US he would be dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Essaybloke Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Taser would have been the quick easy solution here. The people who took him down were taking an incredible risk; were they 'bush knives', I mean 'machetes' he was wielding? I was heartened to read about the peaceful, thoughtful followup action.

A bit of pepper spray and a tazer would have gone a long way, next time call spider man and net him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speckio Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 not sure if handled well are the words I would choose. I mean they threw a barrier at him... but overall acceptable no one died or was seriously injured. In the states more than likely extreme excessive force would have been used... American cops do not <deleted> around when their authority is challenged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
