It is a very smart tactic. Use an unmarked police car to clean him off the bike so the police can deny all knowledge of knocking him off and therefore avoid the criminal sueing them. Thumbs up to the police
When you think about it it was a smart tactic but not a brutal one. They could have simply shot him or hit him at high speed, but it was done fairly carefully.
That was great!! that should be taught to all police as the most humane way to stop a terrorist or just a criminal. it would sure as hell make a person think twice about doing something stupid.
An excellent example of smart cops + a dumb crook. I like it.
This tactic seemed a bit harsh, bit I think that this level of force is justified when you consider that he had taken hostages and declared that he had a weapon.
I don't understand the connection between this police-criminal interaction and the title of the video. Where's the terrorist in here? Or is that how we refer to everyone who breaks the law these days? Could just as well call it a hate crime. After all, I'm sure the guy hated people who had money.

2 wrongs dont make a right-at the end of the day he didnt actually harm anyone but the police almolst killed him-thats excessive and a blatant example of police braeking the law-***k the police
You know, I love it when people say it's not justified or wrong and police brutality because it's usually pussy ass criminals who make excuses. If you don't want to get fucked up by the cops, don't break the law. Common sense.
It is only excessive if he is stealing from someone else. LOL In Texas, we would do the same thing and everyone would applaud. What? Were not the French, okay?
Excessive my ass. A criminal is a criminal. He was making terrorist threats and had two hostages. They did the right thing. Here's another instance of excellent hostage "negotiations:"
It was pretty extreme but I applaude it. That fucker got what was coming to him when he decided to break into a building with a godamn hand grenade right after the attacks.
i know we are all humans but i dont feel bad for a guy that holds up a bank a threatens to kill people. they acted accordingly to show people that terrorism isnt going to be tolerated. atleast he lived, i would imagine that he is lucky that they didnt shoot him in the exchange process.
as soon as someone threatens my or anyone elses life, and is serious about it. in his case he had a hand grenade, they void all rights in my oppinon. you have to preserve your own life, and if that means you have to take another one for a good reason then so be it. im not saying go out and kill someone because you got in a fender bender but if someone holds a gun to your head, by all means retaliate to any extent.
But I think we should try to differentiate between a terrorist whose sole purpose is to kill people, and a bank robber who only occasionally kills people. This guy didn't kill anyone, and probably never intended to (despite his grenade "prop").
"Human rights" are used too often to defend the things that criminals do. He has scared the crap out of the people in the bank, many of whom would have thought they were about to die. In acting like that he has given up his rights to the protection of the law, apart from the prevention of police brutality and the right to a fair trial. The Police CAN NOT assume that the threat is false. If the police say 'Drop the gun' and you don't, then whatever happens next is your fault, and yours only.
The people in the bank all knew he was a bank robber, and knew that if they kept their heads down and did what he said, they would probably live. So I don't buy that they thought they were about to die.
They were bank robbers who are a dime a dozen, and should not be treated in a lawless way as you might a terrorist.
Let's see, he had been there 12 hours and said he had a grenade and wanted to exchange hostages for a bike.
I would think that I was going to be killed in that circumstance.
A bank robber will be in and out in 1 minute, using shock tactics and not giving anyone time to react. This bloke was an idiot, an I have no sympathy for what happened to him.
neil9327, are u a bankrobber or something? are u honestly saying that is was wrong of the police 2 take that guy out like that because he has rights?!
He had fucking hostages, was he mindful of their rights during that?
Brilliant; it's neat and tidy, got the job done. Bravo! Okay, it's really funny too!
