Four Kills So Far? by VnutZ

Interesting … I hadn’t expected four human killings unrelated to military operations. Unless of course those are just bogus votes.

Yes, they probably are bogus.

Would you consider police to be “military” – PDs not MPs

Sure – I was just trying to exclude all the OIF/OEF stuff overseas as it would likely skew many “normal” responses.

It would be interesting to hear from someone who had to shoot a citizen in the line of duty. Even though no blame attaches, for most people there is probably still a psychological effect that makes it hard to live with.

chirp chirp chirp … I’m going to assume those people were lying now.

An opt-in poll on this subject is bound to be fanciful.
