The Rule of Law - Florida edition

[The Good Reverend Roger]

But Montesano and Valdes weren't the only ones struck – two Miami Dade police officers were hit as well – caught in the crossfire. One officer was shot in the arm and the second was hit in the arm and grazed in the head. If the bullet had struck just a half an inch to the side the officer would have been killed.

Kill crazed cops too dumb to understand basic ballistics attack strategy - don't all stand in a circle, one or more of you might miss! Realisticly, it wouldn't be too difficult to set up a couple of dummys, one of them looking like a decapitated cop, call in an armed incident and sit back with a bucket of popcorn, watching the entire PD blowing the piss out of themselves

When that UK cop killed that guy - the one that started the riots - he managed to shoot his partner in the radio.

It's like watching the Chicago Bears.  I could just cry.

There's a clip on YT of a dude with a weight-vest (think athletic ankle weights but a vest) getting pulled by armed filth in edinburgh (yup - that's right they're handing out free guns to anyone game enough to mug a copper now)



Brother scum thought it was a bullet proof vest and immediately tarts bugging the dude with his cop bullshit with questions like - why are you wearing a vest like mine. My answer would have been - "because idiots like you are walking about with shooters and I'm not taking any fucking chances!"

TAMPA — Federal authorities sought doomsday prepper Martin Winters for two days in the woods of east Hillsborough County, attempting to arrest him on weapons charges.

On the third day, agents didn't need to look far at all.

Winters, soggy-shoed and hungry, waited with a daughter in a car outside the FBI field office on Gray Street in Tampa on Wednesday morning as his attorneys stepped up to a reception desk and arranged his surrender.

In trade, he got cheeseburgers, fries, Gatorade, dry shoes, praise from the FBI and a morning free of gunfire — all this from the agency that had spent months chronicling his antigovernment rhetoric and spying on his preparations for an imminent "last stand" with law enforcement.

I suspect this man realised that his survival skills were somewhat lacking. Which is piss poor really, any self respecting lunatic would have at least made it 5 days.

lexander Ramer found a way to kill off the competition, say police.

The Lake Worth man is accused of boating to a Boynton Beach man's house and pouring bleach on the man's live bait fish, killing at least $20,000 worth of them.

The reason? Police say Ramer, 25, is in the live bait fish business and wanted to sabotage a competitor. Bait fish are used by seasoned anglers to lure larger, predatory fish – and in this case, they aren't cheap.

Poison. An old classic to remove competition.

Upon noticing the mass killing of the fish and the strong odor of bleach, Case checked his cameras, police said. The cameras showed not only a person pouring a liquid, but also the boat that the person had used to travel to Case's property.

The scales of justice would catch up with Ramer, thanks to the boat. Case recognized the vessel's name, Xgeneration, because it was Case who had sold the boat to Ramer, his former neighbor, police said.

Stunning display of idiocy.

While I've got the Idiocy files open, I'm not even going to quote this one as it's would just end quoting the whole thing

Where's that site that lets you plot various statistics against eachother?
I want to see the correlation between arming the police and death by guns.
I predict a slight timelag between arming the police and a rise in people getting shot.

This may be relevant:

"They're saying extremely lewd and really stupid things over the P.A.," the first caller reported.

"Apparently there are some kids with dad's off-duty car," another caller said. "They're saying rude comments and driving around. ... I don't think sheriffs would act like that."

It turns out it was an actual deputy behind the wheel.
