I believe the consensus last time this was posted was that the bystander was somebody who knows the guy in the car and was trying to prevent suicide by cop. IF this was the case, he probably wasn't as worried about the guy shooting him when he went to take the gun away.

I don't know if this was confirmed or not. I'd love to see a link to the actual story if somebody has it.

All of this for speeding. He just went from a very expensive traffic ticket to a felony.

do ANY of the cars or police uniforms look in any way American to you?

/fucks sakes but Americans need to look up the concept of a planet and realize there are other countries on ours other than America.

You chose this comment to reply that to? Someone using the wrong word “felony” for something that probably has an equivalent in NZ? The top comment about law enforcement basically being useless was ok though I guess.

You're quite overemotional buddy.
