"Dashcam videos released Tuesday show an Arizona police officer using his cruiser to slam into an armed robbery suspect who was walking down a street while holding a rifle and firing it in the air."
"Police in Marana, Ariz., a suburb of Phoenix, are defending the officer's action, saying the suspect was a danger to himself and others. But the suspect's lawyer is arguing police used excessive force, reports CNN."
"'Everything in the video seems to point toward an obvious excessive use of force. It is miraculous that my client isn't dead,' lawyer Michelle Cohen-Metzger said." ...

Editor's Note: I suppose the lawyer would have preferred it if the officer had just shot him? |

Excellent police work!
Give that officer an extra week of paid vacation. |

Good drills that cop.
Plenty of alternative actions could have ended worse, either for the armed felon or some poor cop who got shot whilst trying to talk the guy into giving himself up.
The guy should be thankful he isn't in the morgue with multiple gunshot holes. |

TO REMEMBER |
| To trust arms in the hands of the people at large has, in Europe, been believed...to be an experiment fraught only with danger. Here by a long trial it has been proved to be perfectly harmless...If the government be equitable; if it be reasonable in its exactions; if proper attention be paid to the education of children in knowledge and religion, few men will be disposed to use arms, unless for their amusement, and for the defence of themselves and their country. — Timothy Dwight, Travels in New England and New York [London 1823] |
