  1. last kick for a faptop, i'll give it away to a family member or something if it doesn't go SOLD
  2. Right or wrong address is really irrelevant. If they are rolling down the road to pick someone up on a warrant and see someone get shot, should they not respond? A guy had a gun, they responded to the situation at hand. Maybe they should call ahead from now on and tell all the criminals they are on their way to arrest them. That should make everyone happy in this thread. I don't fear law enforcement, I don't break the law. Dumbasses mash their brakes not from fear of the law, but fear of the fine. I'm not saying we should live in fear and tyranny, but the punishment doesn't fit the crime in this country. I've seen some people go to jail over some really stupid shit yet see many a serious criminal walk. Those criminals walk because of stupid situation like this where everyone nit-picks what should have been done and what they did wrong. Nobody ever wants to admit what law enforcement does right. I think it's funny that many who botch, moan and complain are the biggest to whine when something happens to them. They want 300 cops at their place NOW and everything else in the world can stop and wait.
  3. And who is to say if they notified the neighbors, they wouldn't help the suspect? Everyone is quick to lay blame on the officer, but regardless, if someone came at you with a gun you'd fire at them too. Change shoes with the LEO, you'd shoot their asses too. Society doesn't fear Law Enforcement and that is the fundamental problem with this country. Nobody accepts personal responsibility and "the man" is always to blame. Dude could have easily announced "I'M ARMED, WHO IS IT?" just as easily as everyone claims the LEO should have announced themselves. If I were the LEO and I fully expect the suspect to be a flight or fight risk, I wouldn't announce either. I'm not going to FORCE myself into a situation where I can be harmed. That's why officers want the benefit of surprise. That's why they run sirens and lights off to certain calls. I have plenty of friends and family in law enforcement. I can see things from there side and I don't want the shit they have to deal with. Being a sideline officer is easy, having someone whip a gun into your face and dealing with that situation in a split second is a whole other story. I'm just glad everyone here knows EXACTLY what should be done sitting behind a PC screen as opposed to a barrel in your face. Just sayin........
  4. I disagree, the occupant had the benefit of surprise. He could have checked the door to see who was there easier than the officers could know who was behind the door. This country puts too much in power in the hands of a criminal when we start picking apart situations like this. Pretty soon, the cops will have to call in advance before trying to arrest a suspect, then everyone will bitch about too many criminals getting away and running free.
  5. I'm ok with the stockers. I'd probably shoot for a 2nd set and get them powdered black so I could murder it out.
  6. Needs more oil pressure and money to your brother.
  7. The guy had no reason to answer the door armed. The officers did not have to announce for fear of being shot at through the door after announcing.
  8. I take that back, it looks like the full size will fit. http://www.cadillacfaq.com/faq/answers/spare/index.html
  9. From what i've seen, and correct me if i'm wrong, but I don't think you can get a spare either. Aren't the CTS's 5 lug wheels and the CTS-V's are 6 lug? That would likely mean there is no spare wheel available right? Unless you go full size and that isn't likely to fit in the well.
  10. Better hope Buck doesn't see this, you'll hear a knock on your door.
  11. I've seen a '05 that caught my eye. I may snag it up and swap the cam from my Camaro into it. What are the main things to look for when checking one out?
  12. How can you do a figure 8 in one direction?
  13. Actually, I think I do. It's a pretty big one if you are looking for a storage tower or something. It's just over 2 feet tall. PM me an email and i'll shoot over some pics I took a while back.
  14. I expect somewhere around there, but to me that's ok since it will go in there without all the goodies on it. I'll sell those on my own if that time comes.
  15. no shit, but there are plenty of people on here that can have a use for it when they fix up grandmas pc or something. if it were "good" stuff, it very well wouldn't be free would it?
  16. still for sale, probably gonna demod it soon and see what a dealership will give me for it so now's your chance
  17. still for sale, make an offer
