What do you think of this? (by Martian)
I don't know all the facts but seems that sometime yesterday in Pine Bluff, Arkansas the police shot & killed a 107 year old man who was causing trouble where he lived & when the cops showed up he began shooting at them. Now I can't believe that the man is 107 years old but that's what the news said.
Ontario police tasered an 80 year old woman this week. She broke her hip when she fell. Used to be the police knew how to interact with people. Now they just shoot or taser. I think it's poor training and p!ss poor individuals being trained.
Yep, I heard this story earlier today. Said the man was hiding under his bed and wouldn't come out, when forced to he started shooting or threatening to shoot so they shot him. I heard he was 107 also
@Briteeyes: Pine Bluff is only about 10 miles from where I live. Some people are saying the cops could of waited for him to take a nap & then arrested him. Added: Thanks for the link.

@Martian: Yes the way they had the place surrounded you woulda thought the man had a building full of explosives. The SWAT team is who did it...the man was in his own house from what I understand. What a shame
@Martian: From what I heard, she was walking along the side of a road and acting strange. Seems like good enough reason for tazing. Like I said..p!ss poor people getting p!ss poor training. I'v never met an 80 year old woman that made me feel threatened.
