92 Year-old woman quicker on the draw

[sspadowsky]

Holy shit!

[RectalWart]

Oh man, here we go. She shot first, actually HITTING the officers, but the police have to apologize (and most likely settle a huge sum of money on her family) because she's black.

[sspadowsky]

I think the police should be horribly embarrassed at nearly losing a shootout to someone four times older than most of them.

[Yggdrasill]

How is this a police brutality case? I doubt that gun was legal, and it sounds like they tried everything before killing her. I mean she shot each of them what the hell did the family expect them to do?

[kahljorn]

lol don't worry they probably won't be able to win a civil case but they might get something like an "Official Apology" ..
the lady was like 92 though it's not like she was going to live much longer.

also this story is confusing, it makes it seem like they got shot breaking down the door later it makes it seem like she shot them while they were walking up to the house.

"As the officers approached the house around 7 p.m., a woman inside started shooting, striking each of them, said Officer Joe Cobb, a police spokesman."

LOL...the homeless guy says "don't let anyone disrespect your door".

[kahljorn]

this kind of reminds me of this story of this guy in a school library on the computers/internet and at 11 o clock at night they go around and check school ids and he refused to show security his id so they asked him to leave and he refused so they tazed him five times

then he started looking around at other people for help while he was screaming in pain saying, "AM I THE ONLY MARTYR"?
there's supposed to be a video of that

[mew barios]

wow. this is a way different version of this story than they had on the local news. she had a permit for that gun, and her neighbors taught her how to use it to defend against home invasion. obviously :> hitting 3 narcotics agents. they busted her door down and charged in there in their black unmarked clothes an masks an junk an she freaked out an shot them. but they had vests and werent 90. they said they had confiscated evidence but dint disclose what it was, but in tha story they said they found drugs? i think this article sucks, an if they ever follow up on this its gonna be, atlanta police screwed up bigtime.

[Preechr]

I want this to be more like Scarface.

APD maintains they had actually bought drugs there, and that they did everything by the book.

[noob3]

uh i'm pretty sure this shouldn't be news? i always thought if you shot 3 cops & they killed you it was like some sort of suicide by police ordeal which probaly it was i mean she was old and probably depressed because of her poopy diapers which were probably uncomfortable

[Fathom Zero]

Pah.

I say she got a thirst for blood and couldn't stop.

Who knows what they found in her basement.
