[QUOTE="Zowert, post: 4288385, member: 71957"] They killed two innocent people, the UPS driver and someone in a nearby vehicle. It was a pretty tasteless tweet. Basically; Don’t worry we are okay! Oh btw we killed a couple innocent people, but at least the criminals are dead! ffs I heard (watching the news) the robbers opened fire on the police some time before the shootout. Those guys didn’t want to be taken alive that’s for sure. This was a very tough situation for the police to be in. Do you stay back, take cover and let the suspects fire at will? Or do you close in, engage and try to end it as quick as possible? Seems like a lose-lose situation.
