Police shot non-terrorist in London by Kickstart2006-11-19 12:55:59
  Oh, and where the hell do you get off calling him by fallow2005-07-24 00:29:03
    Suicide-by-cop is not at all unknown by Kickstart2005-07-24 00:49:22
      You can only blame the terrorists to a point by Liava2005-07-24 01:01:39
        Five rounds by wheresthefish2005-07-24 03:53:14
          So will one round at point-blank range by Liava2005-07-24 10:00:54
            People can and have survived by wheresthefish2005-07-24 11:06:33
              Five won't absolutely kill, either by Liava 2005-07-24 11:16:17
You aren't getting any guarantees here.

And it's the point-blank range bit that I'm commenting on. A shot to the head may not kill, but at point blank range, you can be pretty sure that if you don't kill him, he's going to have trouble remembering where the bomb trigger is.

Still, I can accept that five rounds may have been considered necessary, but until I have more information, I'm assuming the shooter overreacted.

                            How do you define sufficiently small odds? by TheGM2005-07-24 13:03:59
                            Perhaps you should explain what you meant by straw by Martyny2005-07-24 13:04:21
                              It's a logical fallacy, by LionsPhil2005-07-24 14:20:34
                                Interesting by Martyny2005-07-24 14:58:39
                    I know that you're not seriously advocating by wheresthefish2005-07-24 13:04:15
                      No, I'm not advocating that by Liava2005-07-24 13:23:48
                        DR appears to have answered that already. (n/t) by wheresthefish2005-07-24 13:34:55
