Punk uses potato as silencer...

Good for that man .. I love hearing stories when justice prevails .. Nothing better than that ..
 
So since there was a potato stuck on the end of the pistol, you KNOW it had to be a revolver. So double dumb. (I'm picturing Robert Downey Jr's character in A Scanner Darkly now).


Glad it all worked out well though.
 
"On a side note, the criminal who was shot in the neck was thought to be screaming about flying blood... sources have confirmed he was actually screaming FLYING SPUDS!!!"
 
Its been said before, but there are a whole lot more charges for these guys.

Assault with a deadly weapon (brandishing pistols in the commision of a crime).
Attempted murder (firing at the homeowner).
Impersonating a police officer.

They both have records, and they get bail? ($55,000, at 10% bond = $5,500) What a joke.

At least the newspaper report is positive for the victim.
 
1. Would a potato even reduce the sound of a gunshot? Doesn't seem to me that it would.

2. Someone answered this, but I'm surprised that the paper only listed one or two charges. I can think up of eight or so just from the paper's article....

3. I think someone needs to mod the classic potato video from lotr :p
 
No Kurtmax, it doesn't. When I was a pup, I believed everything I read and tried it on a .22 semi in my backyard.

It was...*loud*. I spent an hour in the house with the lights off watching cop cars drive up and down the ally.

I believe that ATFE does view using or intending to use potatoes as suppressors as being a violation of the NFA. At least one drug dealer has had his sentence enhanced for use of a suppressor in the commission of a crime because he had a firearm and a potato during a drug deal.

They both have records, and they get bail? ($55,000, at 10% bond = $5,500) What a joke.

When it's the cops, you know it's the cops.

It generally starts with a bright flash of light and a loud bang. Oh, and one other minor thing. We wear badges and our uniforms say "POLICE" or "SWAT" or "DEA" or something to that effect. We definitey don't wear hoodies, poke a gun through a window and start firing randomly.
Anyone can buy a jacket that says "POLICE". No we do not know it is the cops.
 
and badges are a dime a dozen,,,,

if trust in the police being the police is to be restored the penalty for impersonateing them needs to be hideous and over the top to discourage it.
 
Master of Malice you owe me a key board. on a side note did I read that right.
"Sellers grabbed Johnson and bundled the wounded man through the door window. Blood still marks the spot on the front porch where Johnson hit when he was shoved through the broken window. Then Sellers opened the front door and walked out."
His friend is shot so he shoves him through the window then opens the door and walks out?!?!?!? WOW
 
Kid probably got the idea from a movie (thank you hollywood again), as for impersonating, throw the guy away for a long time, reminds me of an incident up here we had a guy with a reconditioned police car going around giving out speeding tickets, from what I understand he gave out 100 or so before being caught.

I did not realize the serve and protect oath included serving delicious, kitty daiquiris to the public as well. Above and beyond indeed. :D

They were just playing Mr. Potatohead and lost their way home. Just poor misguided boys.

Couple things:
1. No knock searches need to be ended NOW. Too many things to go wrong from having the wrong address or mistakin ID. That way--if anyone is storming your home---you'll be sure its a criminal and not a cop.

2. This insane war of drugs needs to end NOW---all drug prohabition does is cost you your rights and fund criminals.

3. He should have finished off the screamer to shut him up---then shot the second one----NO WAY should these guys have ever been able to walk out on their own----they should have been leaving in cuffs or body bags.
 
In the dead of night when you are woken up by an intruder, there is no time to tell the difference between someone wearing a hoodie and the costumes swat teams wear. and rarely do they wear an identifiable uniform.

badges are just chunks of metal you can't identify while someone is shooting at you and stomping your pets to death. that might be one way to tell if it is a crook or a cop though. crooks don't usually stomp innocent pets.

Lol. Ignorance IS bliss...

Welcome to Knox Co.

Whats more I know for a fact that if bail can't be raised at the original appearance in front of a judge that on subsequent apearances in front of the judge the bail amount can be reduced. Eventually they will make bail through this process.

What I want to know is did the law take away the homeowners handgun?

And how about a big tip of the hat for the old guy and his girfriend being in bed for an hour but not yet asleep! That old guy "got some" twice in the same night!
 
Oleg's post comes awful close to cop bashing by some definitions here. He may have to ban himself.
