Kudos to the PG county police for saving the taxpayer hundreds of thousands of dollars in court costs, and for saving the many lives that would have been wasted after the POS was released back onto the street.

oh come on now he was in upper marlboro right ... he was on his way to the court house to pay his .... oh never mind that was another story

[bcp (Premo)]

oh wait,
this was somebodies brother or son
he was loved by many
he needed the truck to get to a job interview
he never hurt nobody,
his hands were stuck in his pockets, thats why he would not show them.
the police didnt have no right to be capping pookies ass and making him look like a noodle strainer..

Ok, carry on, I just wanted to start the "you insensative bastages" thread on this.

Yeah, if this recent trend keeps up the streets will be a lot safer and the jails will be a lot less crowded. Good job getting rid of another thug!

Maybe the schools should start educating students on the dangers of fleeing the police when they commit crimes. They just don't seem to get it.

I have this feeling that the same ones getting shot for fleeing are the same ones that had attendance issues in school, the chances of them being there for the lesson are pretty slim anyway.
the only students that would hear that message would be the ones least likely to need it.
