BREAKING NEWS - CAR SMASHES INTO BARRIER AT U.S. CAPITOL COMPLEX; SHOTS REPORTEDLY FIRED

[foszoe]

Yes, as well as the protestor on 1/6. Avoiding differing measures and all.

Ok.

Personally never been a fan of counting the suspects death. Especially when it's to make something a mass shooting for example.

 

[foszoe]

Because this guy was actually armed?

What do you count as armed though? Hitting someone with a flagpole for example?

 

[IndyDave1776]

Ok.

Ok. We can make it 0 to 1 if you prefer. That's still an even measure.

This didn't take long, using a car and knife attack to call for gun control. Never let a crisis go to waste I guess.

Heartbroken to learn another CP was killed while protecting the Capitol. My thoughts and prayers go out to the officer’s family and the entire Capitol Police force. The death toll would have been worse if the assailant had an AR-15 instead of a knife.

I suppose if we are going there it was armed assault when the skipper smacked Gilligan upside the head with his hat.

Ok.

I didn't think you held the view the woman was a suspect.

 

[IndyDave1776]

Ok.

I didn't think you held the view the woman was a suspect.

I was avoiding applying my personal judgment, going with a straight LE/others split.

So you didn't consider the flagpole a weapon.

No, nor was anyone killed with it.

I guess I'm thinking in terms of intent. The flagpole would be a "makeshift" weapon. I don't know if the carrier intended to use it as a weapon when he decided to carry it or not. I suppose it's possible.

Lunging at officers with a large knife after running into two of them with a car? Eh, not much ambiguity there.

Back to your Strawman act I see. It's getting old .

 

[foszoe]

One more question!

In the law, if something other than bare hands are used to hit someone is there a differencen in the charges?

 

[IndyDave1776]

He did not show for the court date.

Point out the Strawman you claimed then.

Asked a few questions got the answers and you wanted to intervene.

Death count and flagpole fighting come to mind.
