WTF about it?
Do you think rural Georgia is just full of choppers?
I see copters pretty often.
Not police choppers, I'm sure. Even Atlanta only has 2, , IIRC.

You're all missing my point.
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.

Like I said...how would you feel if the cops "just let em go and caught em later" and the idiots ran over your mom or someone? I'm sure then you'd be crying about "stupid po po aren't doing their jobs"

The cops only duty is not to stop the chase.
I fail to see where I said that was his only duty.

I'm sure that wasn't the intended outcome but when you decided to run from the cops at 100 mph, all bets are off.
Wasnt the intended outcome.... B S
Wow, I guess you were in contact with the officer and knew he intended on killing them. Do you have some crystal ball or something?

Right on brother! We were just arguing about lack of personal repsonibilty at work the other day; sick of people blaming everyone else for their mistakes.

You've yet to come up with anything that is feasible or has less potential to be lethal than the PIT maneuver.

Did you see any news chopper footage on that chase? Again -- rural Georgia -- only places that are going to have news choppers are metro Atlanta. In 20 minutes, the time it would take before the police would give up on him stopping and call the chopper for help, that chopper couldn't have gotten more than 50 miles outside of downtown Atlanta.
