All along the East Coast, eh? There’s help for your pathological lying rhetoric right where I receive treatment for obsessive-compulsiveness.

#45, RBG,

So the next time the police show up to arrest someone they may shoot first if the guy has a sharpened pencil in his pocket. He could stab some poor cop in the eye, causing the end of a promising career. Or tattoo the guy’s neck with a nasty hole.

Idiot.

And now that you can’t see where the knife is, what could the likelihood be of a lucky lunge through “kevlar-like” sheet & cop heart? I see what you mean about problem-solving. But then, maybe they practice the sheet-thing at cop school.

#43 – The blanket/sheet thing was my 1st thought (see earlier post). But, maybe IQ is a factor in problem solving…

Has anyone considered using a baton to disarm him? Or maybe throwing a blanket over him?

I have to go with the concepts that the cops were just too impatient to “serve and protect”. There was no report that he was threatening or being belligerent.

#24 “Tough talk. 82 and oxygen starved doesn’t mean much if he’s hopped up on adrenaline. Octogenarians routinely cut up their morning grapefruit and their evening steaks just as easily as they can cut up your face. It doesn’t take much effort to penetrate your eyeball.”

Hey, I can’t help it if you are so physically inept as to be afraid of someone like this.

31 JCD Have you actually ever seen a cop in a donut shop or was that from The Simpsons? I’m waiting to hear your tone on your next 911 call. Think second coming of Christ.

You could jump the guy flailing with the knife, like they do in the movies, or better still shoot it out of his hand. /s

“Canadian Police Taser 82 Year Old Heart Bypass Patient in Hospital Bed”

Oh, and he was carrying a knife.

Oh, and threatening people with it.

Oh, and he was a former prison guard.

Oh, and he was delusional.

Oh, and panicked due to lack of oxygen.

Oh, and the “weak” old man needed 3 Taser jolts.
(How many do you think you would need?)

And oh, nobody ended up hurt.

noname -

I stand proud with those in the public who are willing to give the police and military the benefit of the doubt in *all* circumstances. That’s not to say they get a free pass for all actions; however, if anyone is willing to risk their life in the service of all us dipsh*ts who spend our free time commenting on a blog site, they deserve the utmost respect.
