I'm not sure which is more appalling, shooting off their stupid weapons or shooting off their stupid mouths. Edited May 13, 2016 by jaltsc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klauskunkel Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Police Confirm, Deny Gas Station Shooters Were Police The police has invented a new semantic technique to declarify (not a word) things it did do or didn't do, consecutively or at the same, in whole or just partial: the "confirm-denial", don't leave the station without it!

harrry Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 5 police opened fire on a pickup and it got away ?. No. The driver got away. Actually he did not....I guess the court will put him away. I like the way the police do their best to avoid actually shooting the driver. In many countries they apply a death penalty without trial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doing his job! Not sure if it is an policemans job to try to shoot to kill, normal procedure would be to try to shoot out the wheels of the fleeing car not to try shoot into the windows.

mtls2005 Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 You must have watched a different video to me. I saw shooting of front wheel/engine bay. You must have taken a different firearm safety course than me? Discharging a firearm from a moving vehicle is extremely dangerous; on a motorcycle it may be even more so? In some cases it may even be a felony. That said, I'm not sure what "rules of engagement" the RTP have re: firearm usage? I suspect it may be be shoot, aim, think? There are many, many, many other videos of Thai police discharging their weapons in public. Some are quite alarming; shooting unarmed people who are of no threat whatsoever.
