Why in the hell would they blow the propane tanks and endanger who knows how many others?
Like who? People walking their dogs across the street? I'll assume that the police had the area locked down. Now, if the police showed up and started shooting like crazy at propane tanks etc, I'd agree with you. There was obviously a police lock down. I don't think kids are going to be playing around the neighborhood after the deputy was already shot earlier. It looks to me a news camera recorded the standoff. I mean, it's possible there were other people around, but I'm betting the police got people out of the way and off the streets.
Anyways, I agree with you. When I made my post, I was reacting to what I thought I would do or what they could have done. Strictly armature. There's one dude using an assault carbine (wouldn't that be putting other people in danger just as much?) and another dude shooting a pistol at a metal trailer. If they thought other people were inside the trailer, would they use a carbine to penetrate? They both aren't in great cover (probably the reason the officer gets tagged by blind fire.) I was just thinking if they shot the propane tank, maybe it would cause a distraction or startle the shooter so they could get better cover or a better angel. But like I said in my first post, they got the job done so props to them.
I'm glad that the rant-buddy party cares more about personal attacks, knocks, or grammar than commenting on the video.
-Thanks, dudes
Have a great new year and I hope you start the new year off with a great day at work or whatever you do.
