  1. Police should have killed that piece of shit one time. Save we tax dollars and save medical services and supplies for people who really need them.

  2. Truth be told: If any Dingbat Scumbags out there bold enough to point a firearm at Police Officers –let alone discharge same, would surely be a death wish call to be neutralized in the blink of an eye. Thus, more target practicing at the range is warranted to accomplish the desired effect of eliminating any and all imminent threat of harm to one’s self: as the only option available in such scenarios is to aim and shoot for mass spectrum. This perp being shot in the hand is a waste of bullets resulting in a waste of the precious resources of the State that is now being depleted to maintain his custodial incarceration and, the accompanying ancillary expenses to be expected. This to me; is not warranted to be reconsidered as efficient use of force in any such an encountered engagement– as it seems that the whole Police Department is in need of remedial training and structural realignment. I mean: When Security Guards are more efficiently armed than the police– who I often see patrolling their beat armed with a shinny belt, crescent and a book pad in hand–shows how ineffective and, at a disadvantage the officer is should the happenstance of a crime be committed in their presence. In concluding my stance. It is a liability to the Officer and Public at large to have unarmed police personnels patrolling without a sidearm, vest or radio–and this is unacceptable policing from my perspective. The security of “Our State” should not be a selective rationale prerogative: but rather a standing order enshrined in the national code of our independence.

  3. These young men do not want to work for anything just rob people day and night. Kill them. Find any reason to kill them once they’re robbing people.

  4. Next time aim for the legs! Cripple these worthless, useless pieces of rubbish! Let them crawl on their asses for the rest of their sorry lives!
    Fawking Scumbags!!!!

    Make Antigua Great Again!!!!
