"BANDAGE" SCISSORS ARE A LETHAL WEAPON?



Today's Waterloo Region Record carrys this story titled "Guelph officers won't face charges". We are advised that a nurse at Guelph General Hospital voluntarily gave a lethal weapon to a 36 year old male with medical problems. The "lethal" weapon was a pair of "bandage scissors". Really? Are bandage scissors what I think they are namely a very small scissors whose job literally is to trim a bandage to size? Apparently the two officers between them shot the man fatally, a total of six times. Wow. Were their lives seriously in danger? The Guelph Police Chief states that shooting was their last resort. O.K. what other resorts did they have? We're Batons, tasers or pepper spray employed or even considered? Have we come to the point that police are allowed to take a life to avoid less than fatal or even serious injury? How about a picture of this lethal weapon that the nurse voluntarily gave to the man. In other words it's high time that more information is given to the public in order that they can make an informed opinion and not be left guessing whether there's been a coverup or not. But for the private video regarding the Sammy Yatin death in Toronto, Officer Forcillo probably would have walked. More transparency is needed.

    I agree its sad police killing kids every year brantford toronto all over cause they just have to say feared for there life self defence but if a canadain citizen shot n killed a home invader minium 4 years as in the Crawford Lamka case who shot 3 armed masked home invaders who were armed and Crawford clearly feared for his life n shot each one of the home invaders once one fatally he warned then get out get the F... out let mt dad go get out n once they turned to attack him he shot in self defence fearing his life as im sure any police ifficer would done wh r n confronted by 3 armed masked men who are a bout to attack him Weres are equal right to life and self defence clearly we have no equal rights our laws need to be up to date so we all have equal rights to life not only police officers in a kill or be killed situation sad a handicapped Crawford Lamka had to spend 4 years for choosing to live as any police officer would did but police would be not charged and arrested
