Was he running with the scissors? If so I say open fire. #cantbetoocareful
To: Altariel
Have to use up those bullets somehow. Guess they hadn’t shot any dogs lately.

That’s sad... If these people have no better people skills than that they have to kill a sick person, that’s really sad...
We often lump fireman and police together as heroes, however as of late it’s the fireman who will risk his life and go into a burning building to save someone (even a dog or cat). Police send in flammable tear gas first to protect their own ass. Police are no heroes...

His mother, who was temporarily staying at his house, called authorities about 6:10 p.m. to say Dixon had doused himself with gasoline and was threatening to set himself afire. He was going to die one way or another. Too bad the cops have to live with the aftermath.
Guy should have just struck the match and left everybody else out of it.

Some people just need killing. Sounds like the PoPo did us all a favor. His next stop might have been a gun free zone near you.

It’s because he didn’t have a dog they could shoot.

They can be just as dangerous as a knife.Holy crap. We need to fit everyone in a straightjacket.

Isn’t it amazing, all of these police departments have plenty of money for actual assault rifles and armored vehicle but none of them can afford a net gun! Something that would have easily saved this mans life.
“The net gun is not only limited to animal capture. Some law enforcement agencies throughout the US have adopted the net-2000 net gun for security purposes as in riot control and capturing fleeing suspects.”
But hell I guess that is not as satisfying as tasing or shooting shooting someone, especially someone who is mentaly unbalanced!

Sounds like he was being successfully talked down until the cops arrived and inflamed the situation. What a waste.
