There's an uproar down here, because the other day a cop shot and killed someone who was going around with a hammer smashing up an apartment and several cars. It seems that he was deranged, but it can't be said for sure yet. The big issue, though, is that someone was killed by a gun. I first heard it from people at work, and I thought yeah, ok a cop killed a guy, not much news there, but apparently it is in NZ. Whether the cop was right to shoot or not, the Kiwi reaction shows a much different level of acceptance. More drama because they tried to integrate tasers into the police arsenal not too long ago, but there was a big opposition to that. Now they'll be looking at more non-lethal weapons.

Tell me you've seen the video of the guy getting tasered at the John Kerry rally...
Youtube if not.
Perhaps the cops could start using foul language to stop the criminals.
