"Shoot to wound in the arm or the leg"--with a 9mm handgun :wall:

i imagine cops have enough going through their minds when in a gunfight- they don't need worry about winging the bad guys. paterson is a moron, protect the bad guys- yeah right.

The only thing that will accomplish is the death of more officers.That has to be one of the most moronic if not the most moronic thing any politician has ever proposed.Its almost unbelievable that anyone could propose such a thing.

Imagine if that passed.The rate at which officers would be killed on duty would be sickening.Then of course the families of every thug killed would be suing the city because their son should've only been injured.

The truly frightening thing is that there are people who will support this.

:doh: What is this guy a moron? Does he really believe a criminal will be intimidated if the weapon is pointed at his leg? It's a whole different story when they can look down the bore. It looks like the size of a coffee can when on the wrong end. Let's hope this gets flushed. It's bad enough when they have to worry about getting it by the bad guys. But now some of the people "supposedly on their side" want to do them in to. I'm sorry but that is just wrong.

Next they will want to take the 9 mm gun out of hands of the cpos and arm them with less harmfull gun.

Patterson is far from a moron--he's something a lot worse---an out-and-out panderer.

Unfortunately, in NY, the Gov and Lt Gov run as a ticket and Spitzer, the candidate for Gov, is at least 20 points ahead in the polls. And there is no credible Republican on the horizon.

If I was a cop, I'd rather be unarmed, like a British Bobby, than have to operate under this idiotic law.

There's only 3 reasons to take out a Gun

To Clean it

For Target Practice

and to Kill Something.

Shoot to wound....thats the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

Is this guy a Lawyer, because that law would open up a Whole new realm of Lawsuits

I'm all for it. I also think they should be using sponge rubber hand cuffs and drivin them to jail in limos. :hihi:

Yup TDF, we should just have counselers go to the scene, sit down and find out what happened in their childhood to cause them to do this, then just let em go. :hihi:
