Actually a bullet to the head is a little drastic, but shouldn't the police personnel have some training in targetting non-lethal spots on the suspect's body? Knees, shoulders, arms and places like that. Getting shot there would quickly show him that he isn't all that invincible and he's more likely to survive and get questioned. He hasn't shot anyone yet has he?

The problem is where they catch up with him, if he's in a house where he could potentionally take hostages then they would have little choice to either try and shoot him in the arm or in the head. If its just in the street then sure the knee cap or shoulder would do the job. The guy is obviously disturbed but the problem with people like that is you never know how to react. Another perfect example of our understaffed and under funded mental health sector.

Yeah but just how accurate can you be with a pistol? waste a clip trying to shoot him in the knee by which point he has returned fire?

True, but you'd think they would have someone with a sniper rifle capable of at least hitting him in the shoulder. To be quite honest I dont really care if he ends up dead, its one less criminal to worry about, although that would mean inquest after commision after inquest into the usage of firearms by police and who knows what idiotic conclusion they may come to. They might even come back with a verdict banning firearms for police like in some parts of the UK, which would be a very worrying development.

shoot him who gives a shit?

seriously this is turning into such a dumb country when people with so many convictions have more rights than not..

bring in zero tolerance.

don't they have the retarded taser guns now?

Those can be very effective against idiots like him, how is he going to shoot at anybody if he has no control of his muscles?

But i really 2nd the opinion that guys like these, well i don't really care if they get killed.

I think they do have the tasers, but would you want to get within the 10m or less to hit him with it?. I wouldnt risk my life for some scum bag with a gun just to bring him down with non lethal force, I dont think any of us on here honestly would and quite frankly I dont expect the police to either.

Vic Pol don't shoot to maim, they shoot to kill. So they wouldn't have just popped him in the kneecap.

Thank god they found him, hopefully he gets put away for a decent amount of time now!

We all have Rob Hulls to thank for useless pricks like this running wild

Lol, back home in the army, when doing guard duty, we were told when there are intruders, shoot the asshole, then fire the warning shot. The rules say to fire a warnign shot first though.

Good to know the dickhead has been found.

I like that :cool: "I fired a warning shot officer and he came at me so I had to shoot him" hahaha

69 Charges ans still walking free has nothing to do with Vic Pol and everything to do with the useless courts. Unless he ends up killing someone he will probably only get 2 years or less jail for his crime wave.

Quality politicians in this country!

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
