"Hundreds" of Met Police armed response officers hand in the weapons after colleague charged with murder - Chris Kaba Shooting aftermath.

Loveable rogue. Never hurt a fly. Church. Old ladies across the street. White man's fault.

Couldn’t agree more and stuff like the below is just god awful journalism

Chris Kaba shot man in nightclub days before his death

Judge rules details of Chris Kaba’s background can be reported after officer cleared of his murder.

No, the vehicle was linked to a previous firearms incident, they didn't know Kaba was driving as it wasn't his car.

but they knew the driver was refusing to stop and tried to ram them.
good life lesson. don't poke the bear if the bear is pointing a gun at you

that's whats odd - so was there poor police intelligence/technology such that Blake didn't know who driver could be, to recognise him

lol. How can they tell through tinted windows when he has no docs to drive that vehicle. They are not magicians. Stick to motors

Let’s all congratulate ourselves further on having correct opinions whilst arguing against and criticising a massively compromised grieving family. Keep posting lads. Really good discourse.

It’s very important the justice system got this correct and it’s worthy to talk about it.

Also worth noting the poor families of those he hurt.

No one is arguing that is not true.

I agree, hence my posts on the topic. But there’s a lot of posts that are just handwringing.

It’s fair to say that if that “family” had done a better job, then this thread wouldn’t exist.

is it too early to suggest the firearms officer is awarded a medal

the problem is people other than the families of the victim who I do sympathise with to a point are STILL accusing him and playing the racist card.
and where was the sympathy to the accused police officer and his family in the press when it all kicked off?
ideally no names should have been released until after the court case. but I realise that isn't practical

I tend not to shed tears for the family of murderers/monsters only their victims.

Are you upset that a scumbag / potential murderer died?

 

[ColdAsIce]

You usually go full hurfdurf simp mode on men that abuse / threaten violence to women. Defending a guy that beat up his partner that she had to file a restraining order on him. Nice one.

This is in general. But yes, the marker on the car was critical and it demonstrates exactly what I'm saying, preparing for a known risk.

He was a violent career criminal shot whilst trying to ram his way out of a police stop by driving at officers he knew were armed..... and some of the family are still trying to cause bother.

Zero sympathy for such people

It’s the officers family and colleagues I have sympathy for.

Oh and the countless other future victims that will arise because firearms officers no longer want involved for fear of being thrown to the mob.

People are congratulating themselves for seeing through the blatant media lies, spin and the clear “racist” angle/bias they were all too clearly trying to push.

It’s that toxic, and untrue , narrative which people are sick of seeing time and time again in the media….

It’s about time we started asking exactly why that’s the narrative our media are so keen to readily promote even on occasions like this when there’s literally no evidence to suggest it…..

Just look at the usual suspects who yesterday were fawning over themselves and frothing at the mouth at the prospect of this being the UKs “George Flloyd moment”……!

They clearly didn’t care about the individual involved or the bereaved family. Until today it was just useful clickbait they could push their political agenda with.

got to be able to see what you are shooting at, plus looked like a significant risk of cross-fire too, maybe angle of shot precluded that
a few people round here have illegal I guess, front windscreen blue tint so that you cannot tell if there is a driver.

It’s just his usual virtue signalling nonsense.

Are you honestly saying that the officer is to recognise every horrible scum bag in London?
