minus-square@ShittyRedditWasBetterlinkEnglish-1•1 year ago It’s alleged she had threatened people with an axe before she barricaded herself inside her apartment. Completely warranted use of bags. It’s a shame they ended up killing her.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish1•edit-21 year agoIf they had used live ammo people would be asking why they didn’t use beanbags, tazers etc. There’s a reason these weapons were rebilled like 15 years ago in the US as less lethal from less than lethal. Totally justified use of beanbags, and like you said it’s a shame it turned out the way it did.
