When you are dressed in plain street clothes while carrying out your duties as a policeman and see a man in plain street clothes with a gun chasing another man, do you say:
a) Drop the gun! BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG
or
b) Police! Drop your weapon!
?
If you chose b) then you are obviusly not this particular New York Police Detective with four years of service under your belt.
Say it with me now: when guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns. And the Only Ones will shoot at the outlaws.
********
As an aside, I'll mention that there are FOUR BULLETS unaccounted for in the middle of a densely populated residential area of NYC. I guess 2 hits out of 6 shots is good enough for New York's Only Ones.
Also, they played it but you have a pretty high standard of proof if you want to make the Race Card work here. Cops shooting a man who was chasing someone else with a gun doesn't automatically scream racism to me, regardless of the level of melanin in the shooter's and shootee's skin.
