THE COP DID NOT DO HIS JOB.
Just because a car doesnt pull over when a cop tells it to, doesnt give the cop the right to kill the occupants.
You guys are not going to change his mind. He has it that cops are the devil incarnate, and we are out to take away everyone's rights. We were all picked on in school and now feel that our badge and gun give us the right to get even.
The officers did not intend any harm to the driver/passenger, period. The officers ended the chase with the best methods available at the time, period. We are not the boogey-man.
Time to learn a lesson about personal responsibility. You run, you are responsible for the outcome. Had the driver pulled over and stopped, none of this would have happened. PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY! It's so lacking in today's society. I can't believe we are debating who is at fault here. Hey! I was running because the police were chasing me. It's their fault I crashed! Can't you see how completely stupid that sounds?
Let's sue gun manufacturers because their product was used to kill someone.
Next, let's sue auto and alcohol manufacturers because their product was used to kill someone.
Tell you what, take everything you own and get rid of it now, because it can be used to hurt someone in one fashion or another. Let's not take personal responsibility for our actions, let's continue to blame everything on someone else. I know, the police have the deepest pockets, let's sue them!

There are no stupid questions.
There are a LOT of inquisitive idiots.
