Only in Noo Yawk

They are doing it to our military, and now with our law enforcement as well.

Cops furious at 'don't-kill' bill

quote:

The "minimum force" bill, which surfaced in the Assembly last week, seeks to amend the state penal codes' "justification" clause that allows an officer the right to kill a thug if he feels his life or someone else's is in imminent danger.

The bill -- drafted in the wake of Sean Bell's controversial police shooting death -- would force officers to use their weapons "with the intent to stop, rather than kill" a suspect. They would be mandated to "shoot a suspect in the arm or the leg."


Gun Shy wonders if Bloomberg's private security would use these rules of engagement if their client was attacked by a violent offender.

Hat Tip to Steve-o
