millbank Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 Woman Shot This seems to have people on both sides in a fuss. The sign she was holding may as well have said shoot me , better had they got her in the behind a few times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't watch the whole thing, did it say what they were protesting? The article I read said they were protesting police treatment of protesters! How great is that?

Dibs Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Hang on a sec....they want to offer an apology for making jokes about shooting her in the head. What about an apology for actually shooting her in the head? That's nuts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaska Darin Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 I say anyone who ducks down behind a piece of cardboard FACING people shooting at her deserves to be shot. That sign must have said "Dumbass" with an arrow pointing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wacka Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Good, I'd wish they would use rubber bullets in SF to clean out the Communist (ANSWER) scum that clog the streets every so often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Jesus, when did we become a nation of such pussies. 747759[/snapback] Agreed. Anybody that would stuff their pansy ass in full riot gear and hide behind a bunch of their buddies so they could stand back at a distance and shoot unarmed women in the face is definitely a gutless faggot.

The Dean Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 What am I missing? There HAS to be more to this story. The cops shot (with rubber pellets) an unarmed woman walking down the street with a protest sign? And then, later, they shot her in the face? Then they laughed about it on tape? And some of these people still have their jobs and aren't in jail? There has to be more to this story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if they had already warned her to leave the scene and she wasn't complying they could have just cuffed and stuffed her. Repeatedly plugging a retreating woman is cowardly and dishonorable.

And if they had already warned her to leave the scene and she wasn't complying they could have just cuffed and stuffed her. Repeatedly plugging a retreating woman is cowardly and dishonorable. 748022[/snapback] According to her, she was walking in front of them for half an hour. It wasn't like she was leaving. And there were many people there that you couldn't see on the video, and much more going on than the few mintues of video caught. Do you really think there was a group of cops in riot gear becuase of one lady? No, they were there to control a mob. Not always possible to cuff and stuff a large group of protesters. Couple other areas to note: After she was shot the first time she immediatley turned and started showing off for the cameras. Yeah, she's just as innocent as can be. After she was shot the first time, in the leg, SHE DIDN'T LEAVE!!! These people were instigating the cops because their mob mentality told them they were invincible. They are lucky they weren't hit with batons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
