VABills Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 But I thought it was illegal to have a gun if you're 14? You know I read if you make something illegal it would never happen. If we made all guns illegal no body would ever get shot. Actually, I am shocked that we don't have one of the police haters here saying the officer probably did something to deserve it.

Steely Dan Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Wow! I can't believe how prescient I was about the parents. On the news all they would say is he's a good kid.

The Senator Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Magazines, not clips. Tney would have violated the POS rights. Most of us speak in the vernacular - clips. (Have you ever heard anyone say, "I would grab my gun, march right up to the lousy bastard, and empty my magazines right into him?") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill from NYC Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 I am surprised this happened to a rookie officer. Usually their officer safety skills are better than their more experienced and complacent counterparts. OMG, you are sadly mistaken. I suspect that you are a rookie cop. In a few years you will see just how wrong you are. Be careful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stussy109 Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 and yet he'll (the 14 year old) will recieve the full weight of the law in his defence. "He was such a good boy, it was an accident, he didnt mean it" To his defense, he is a kid, who doesn't legally know right from wrong. We all did bad sh-- as kids, this kid crossed the line.

Stussy109 Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Gee, the cops should riot now. I mean, peoples rioted for that schmoe that got killed on the Bart Low blow...if u watch that video i don't know how u couldn't feel for that guy who got shot in CA. I was fuming watching the video. If i were his friend i don't know that i could have sat there and watched my friend get murdered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was fortunate enough to have good parents who laid down the law. Just making the point that this kid at 25 yrs old hopefully will have learned hi slesson and be different than he is now at 14.

justnzane Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Little update, I called back up to Brockport, where Tony and I know some of the same people. From our old boss, he was relaying to me that he was able move his legs a little and give a thumbs up to his best friend, but is still a long way away from being back to normal.

Wow thats is great news, but yeah it will be years upon years upon years of physical therapy before he is ever completely back to normal, IF he is ever completely back to normal.

Yeah, I was a sniper and shot cops all the time. Unless this kid is from another planet, how the HELL could he not know this was wrong? He may not "legally know" because he is 14, but in his heart and mind he knows it was NOT RIGHT! Can there be any doubt to that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spoke with some of the staffers I work with and they told me the hallways around the hospital in the common areas were flooded with police officers from many different departments walking around. Looked like a police station instead of a hospital. Nice to see such support. I also saw on various tv interviews that the Mayor of Rochester (Robert Duffy- fmr Rochester police chief as well) is ticked off like you cannot believe and is working on changing the law so people like this have harsher penalites for minors who commit this savagery. Good for him. Sorry about your friend. I do not know him but I am glad he is recovering and not deceased. He does face a long road ahead of him (ie: inpt intensive physical therapy after he is transferred from the floor, etc....) but I have worked with Dr Paul Maurer (the MD who operated on Tony) on an admin basis and he is a damn good doctor, one of the best neurosurgeons ever, IMHO. Just keep praying for him like his parents instructed all of us to do up here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLZFAN4LIFE Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Electric chair.Game over. I agree, but many posters (I can think of one in particular) around here believe that civilized societies do not/must not employ capital punishment. I'm sure that they (one in particular) do not have the courage to express their viewpoint to you, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From our old boss, he was relaying to me that he was able move his legs a little and give a thumbs up to his best friend, but is still a long way away from being back to normal. That's awesome.

Can there be any doubt to that? I did when I was 14. All my friends knew right from wrong at 14.

I'm against the death penalty but not because I think scum like this, if he in fact did it, should live. I'm against it because mistakes are made.
