Police shooting?

These past few weeks, the death of a certain teenager made public uproar because he was shot dead by police, and he's a minor. The police is now being charged over this incident and well, that's that. Because of this incident, the issue of police shooting became rife. And i guess the million dollar question in everybody's mind is 'do police officers really simply shoot people?'

well i don't have the answer to the question but shouldn't police be given some form of power to exercise? it was dark, they were speeding, not to mention the driver had no licence, and they didn't stop when asked to. aren't they/him were the people at fault? owhkay, maybe the police shooting is a bit extreme, but let's imagine for a while the police didn't shoot the dude.. let's imagine what would happen

they were speeding to escape police and if the shooting didn't occur, they probably would knock onto another person, a tree, a car, a motorbike or whatever, and the life of another is gone or maybe their lives are gone.

if that didn't happen then maybe they got so excited about managing to escape from the police that they attempt to do it again.. and this time maybe the above would happen.

then what? blame the police for not stopping them the first time it happened? or for not 'being there' when future accident happen? see how it goes? whatever it is, it seems that the police are to blame, simply because when things like this happen, people need to blame on people, because they need to find someone to take the fault, which is really sad. y not take some time and reflect on why in the first place such an incident could have occured?

or probably.. probably they would got so scared that they will not try to do it ever again. which i really hope would happen to lots of mat rempits, but i guess they prove me wrong la..

whatever the possibility is, we wouldn't know, but what is certain is that the dudes are at fault first. is the shooting justified? idk cause i don't know the real situation. both parties are saying different things from the same incident.. :x

another pretty funny incident to me was another police shooting which happened in seremban. the police shot a teen in the stomach for riding a motorbike without licence and failing to stop after being asked several times.

the shooting is not the funny thing.. the funny thing is what the father said in interview...


"although my son does not have a valid licence, the cop should not have opened fire. My son sat for the test once but did not pass. In fact, he was planning to sit for another one."

"he also described his eldest son as an obedient child and hoped that the incident would not affect his preparations for SPM this year" (quoted from The Star newspaper)


Does not have a valid licence means no licence. Went for test and fail, means it's a fail. planning to sit for another test means it hasn't happen yet. in what circumstances should the teen be given permission to drive the motorbike? at 3.30 AM?? owhkay probably the dad don't know that his son is like that.. but giving such statement is a little bit... weird.. owhkay, maybe he was right on the 'should not have opened fire' part but what about his son not stopping when asked to?

and the part regarding the 'obedient child'. hahaha.. obedient to what? the father? the law? cause i don't see any obedience here. and he's sitting SPM this year.. what is he doing on the road at 3.30am driving a motorbike without licence and don't want to stop when police ask to?

idk.. u tell me.

God Bless~
