Nah, not at those speeds. It seems police are after these kids for being a public nuisance rather than speeding.
EDIT; Ok, since people seem incapable of understanding the context of my answer: Justified or not, it is not interchangeable with pulling out a gun at those speeds. Y'alls reading comprehension sucks.
Kids out there causing trouble without even having the decency to stimulate the local economy.
Heh, not sure what my autocorrect was up to there
I paid it off to give me the set-up.
When you make posts with two statements, people tend to get lost in the meaning and focus only on one. This is why I never bring up the collection of stool samples I keep in my sock drawer.
I've noticed. I usually try to have the first part of anything I write act as a summary of a statement, as many people seem to only read a few words just enough to get angry enough to push the downvote button. This is how nuance is lost to headline-outrage. And there's no reason to limit yourself to just samples when you can go for a real full-scale collection.
Somehow given what I know of cops in that country I doubt that. Open to any evidence otherwise though
So the sane option is to try to pop their wheels and cause an accident, especially with TONS of kids right behind the lead ones?
They may be at low speeds, but imagine if Officer Porky managed to take down one of the first kids before that big section came through. That kid would have then been a road hazard and likely taken out more kids, hurting both the first and subsequent kids in the accident.
It really is too bad Porky was able to walk away after he got hit. Wish he would have gotten the injuries he was trying to inflict on the kids.
It’s actually really easy to not be a selfish piece of shit. Most people do it all the time. These shitty kids made their choices, and they weren’t good ones.
So the punishment for violating road rules is execution by cop? You're talking about attempted murder here.
No, we really aren’t. We are taking about a proportional force response. These people are willing to go speeding around on sidewalks and through red light intersections. They badly hurt people with that behavior. It’s not like the cop pulled a gun.
The only way I can see from your perspective is if you don’t understand how spike strips work. They don’t just pop and shred a fire, they are specifically engineered to slowly let the air out.
I’m a motorcyclist and you don’t have a clue.
Punctured tyres aren’t going to kill anyone at that speed.
Apparently motorcycles and ATVs will explode and take out a city block if they get a flat tire. Think of the children!
Knobby ATV tires can be decently thick. I wonder if spike strips meant for cars would even work properly on them.
Idk what's this obsession with "kids". If they are old enough to drive, they're not a kid anymore. You can't use a deadly machine and call yourself a kid. Use big boy tools, act like a big boy, or else there should be big boy consequences.

…. There wouldn’t have been an accident. They would have rolled to a stop, or more likely, continued to move, but with a whole lot of rolling resistance.
but spike traps seem reasonable for a public nuisance?
