What with dunners yesterday its not turning out to be a very good week is it.
This is already in the Incidents thread, but.. when I left work it was two, this got posted, three, and when I just looked, four. Fuuuuuck
well fuck
RIP all of us and our "privileges"
well fuck
Yeah really sad new indeed
Waiting on the info rumors on facebook it could be to do with that group the cops nailed a few years ago that walk free
If you mean Tama Iti, he's walked a few times nowQuote:

I thought same thing.... hope they all ok and the house gets riddled with lead.
Steady. It's not the first or the last time that police have been shot. Let's wait for the facts to prevent themselves.Quote:

yanks got a spare drone overhead? jihadi john cure perhaps??
A bit more info on the herald article now. The 4 cops were all AOS, so we're wearing some protection. Suspect used/using a shotgun. 2 cops stable, 1 in a serious condition. 4th injury is to the hand.

I'm sure we all know it's a horrible incident, love the fact you think me saying it will somehow make it better or something?Quote:

Me? I am not laying into ANYONE who works in the field. Different tier of police.
Someone has harmed people that work long and hard in what at times are fairly adverse circumstances in an attempt to keep our communities as safe as they can and that is not OK. My thoughts are with the Police that were harmed, their families and their colleagues. The scum that did this today is/are dog crap on the heel of society.
It's a bad incident, and hopefully all police shot will come out physically and mentally ok as well as the families of those wounded.
Not a good week to say the least
A trial going on for the bloke who "allegedly" shot innocent folk in Ashburton, the shooting near Dunedin and now this.
One can't help beginning to think about battening down the hatches in advance of the inevitable shit storm of trouble that will be directed toward legitimate sportsmen and women by the ignorant once this is over.
Whooaa settle down a little bit. I didn't read his comment in that context at all, and it was also written well before we knew four police were in hospital. There's been several firearms incidents in the last few days, this could have been the same minus four injured police. Lets try to keep the strife to a minimum perhaps, a massive argument isn't necessaryQuote:

"We have asked the New Zealand Defence Force for assistance and they have provided one NH-90 tactical lift helicopter and three Light Armoured Vehicles (LAVs)."
Very "Cheap" of O'Connor to use this situation to push his own barrow.
Hope they deal appropriately with the shooter. You will never be able to trust such a person again in public.
That is the impression I got also.Quote:

If that is the rumour on Facebook then it is quite removed from fact and another reason to not believe everything you read or hear..Quote:

I hooe they drive through the house with a couple of lavs
Can and has been done
Think that 4 AO squad members have been hit by shotgun pellets
No mention of rifles involved yet.

If he's alone turn the house into a swiss cheese ! Shooting 4 cops he's got no rights now !
He has the right to remain silent. Very silent!Quote:

Hope they have teargassed the place and shot him dead as he run out.
Harsh maybe but shoot at a cop imo you have given up the right to live.

Would imagine not, will be standing round with STG either there already or on their way, negotiations and what not through the night.
One offender and 4 LAVs a bit OTT??? what next drone attack
