The Latest Trend of Ramming Police Vehicles

It seems like local Law Enforcement Officers lives are being endangered recently by assailants attempting to ram their vehicles.

Maybe Law Enforcement should start dealing with the Domestic Urban Terrorists (Orlando Insurgents) in the same fashion that terrorists are engaged in other hostile areas of the world, by using an armored Humvee with a turret gunner which could help to insure the Officer’s safety, as well as making the assailants seriously reconsider their actions before they even attempt to endanger the lives of others.

Nothing says halt with more authority than a large caliber round through an engine block.

For those of you who feel that my proposal is a bit extreme, let’s scale it down a bit shall we? Maybe we could substitute an accurately placed round through the engine block delivered from the new Beowulf System which the OCSO has recently acquired to stop the assailant from fleeing the crime scene and endangering innocent lives as well as the lives of our Law Enforcement Officers. When you analyze the situation logically, a 4000 pound vehicle traveling recklessly down the highway at 100+ mph per hour or speeding through residential neighborhoods driven by a person trying to escape arrest who has no concern for the well being of others, is far more dangerous to the safety of the general public than one accurately placed round delivered by a police marksman. Another ancilliary benefit is the money saved in fuel when you will not need to send up the persuit helicopter.
