not sure why you cannot comprehend it pretty basic really.
Context is everything. You try making sense out of his last sentence then. Then again, you guys think alike so maybe it's more your speed

read it, using the punctuation.
a lame attempt to insult someone, and ending up with egg on your face because of a lack of basic comprehension skills, is no way to handle a debate.
It's still not making sense due to incorrect punctuation and some missing words mind you.
No. That's more your style; don't project it onto me.
Are you seriously going to deny convicted criminals, as this individual not doubt would have been, unjustly benefit from the laws in this country regarding for example length of sentencing and that it does impinge on the cops ability to "keep the peace"

how is that difficult?
'Would have' being the operative word there. Dead men tell no tales.

Whilst innocent law-abiding citizens' human rights are being disregarded by their fellow citizens, the enforcers of the law is held to a higher standard, and that is what this is all about.
I can't make sense out of this sentence.
Anybody else? Or is it just me?
Care to clarify?

well this wasn't what i typed so don't argue it with me.
was it that hard to comprehend?
eish
That sentence is a mess and you know it, but I'm going to try and figure it out anyway.
Is he saying that convicted criminals are unjustly benefiting from the laws of this country? Then he needs to come and explain how.
And, if indeed the victim had prior convictions - which still has to be proven - how is it that he was out on the street? He certainly didn't break out of jail, as far as we know, so he must've gotten out through some legal means, which is no error on the part of our justice system.
It's ironic that the very corrupt cops, who you are defending in this thread, are to blame for alleged criminals getting off because of their shoddy police work. Because, the truth of it is, is that criminals don't get off on their own; they get off due to some technicality, that technicality being something that the police didn't do or overlooked during their arrest or investigation.
It is what you typed, it was outside of the quote marks stop being obtuse. If corrupt cops of given the right to execute it makes hiding their crimes and collusion with fellow criminals.
I'm sure they do appreciate it's a dangerous road but they've conclude desperate times calls for desperate measures. I know though living in insulated leafy suburbs one does tend not to appreciate what must be like living in areas where crime levels resemble war zones. Most people have simply had enough
Alan said:Not my solution I don't condone what the cop did. I'm just pointing out why people do.
You're still making that giant leap from executing violent criminals leading to randomly murdering old grannies as they walk down the road. Even if one were to accept such a rather ludicrous notion I doubt cops would rack up the kills like that violent criminal you'd rather have roaming the streets than dead.
The law being enforced is failing to protect the human rights of innocent citizens. Hence people are increasingly willing to tolerate a "lower standard" from cops. If you have laws that don't serve the interests of law abiding citizens don't be surprised when they starting condoning cops enforcing their own personal brand of justice.
You claimed the laws are not swayed in favour of criminals yet we repeatedly see violent criminals given ludicrously lenient sentences for their crimes. Criminals who once they have served their short terms incarcerated are allowed out to once again infringe on the rights of innocent people. Kinda debunks your claims
If my life was under such severe threat just moments before I'd probably not have acted very rationally myself.
Hope the cops were not covering up something else though by making sure the criminal doesn't talk. I assume one doesn't just walk up to a police van and fire 8 rounds for no reason or history unless it is pure psycho behaviour.
Exactly. And the amount of C in this thread is shocking tbh.
The fact that many people are prepared to entrust police officers with the power to kill some citizens as they see fit, speaks to a lack of respect for the dignity and rights of fellow South Africans. In other words, it speaks to a lack of humanity on the part of those cheering on the killings.

Makes for an interesting read
Once you arm cops you already entrust cops with the power to kill some citizens. Otherwise disarm all cops. Those guns don't fire sleeping gas.
