There's a perfectly logical reason for people to presume that may be what he was on. He was being violent with multiple people, and it took 6 rounds ending with a headshot to bring him down while he advanced at a police officer. Race has nothing to do with why that's being questioned.Originally posted by lowthreeohz View PostHardly racial bullshit, CJ. Let's have a discussion instead of slinging shit for no reason.

It was another officer quoting him, apparently. It was posted earlier in the thread I believe.Originally posted by lowthreeohz View PostDid they release the officers statement? If so I missed it. I don't think it was a bad shoot, mind you, but the "omg what if PCP" line is bullshit."When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." -Benjamin Franklin

Stats don't lie my friend. Inner cities favor certain drugs while higher class favor another. Compare the high school drug arrest in south Dallas vs Frisco, while you will have some of the same you will see a lot more RX drugs in Frisco. Don't try to pull something racial out of a non-racial statement, same could have been said if the person that was shot was white, Mexican, or Asian in that neighborhood.Originally posted by lowthreeohz View PostWhy not steroids, bath salts, morphine, etc?

It was an eye witness, not someone quoting the officer."When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." -Benjamin Franklin

I'm guessing it was a conversation that took place immediately after. And considering what he's saying goes against the normal accepted FTP dialog, and he wasn't a police officer but just a citizen, I'd say there a higher believably there.Originally posted by Magnus View PostOne of the same eye witnesses who say he was shot in the back?"When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." -Benjamin Franklin
