Riots in Little India

[CityFarmer]

I can accept normal people trying to stay alive even for soldiers at the front line war zone when they are out-numbered. As the Chinese saying goes - 留得青山在不怕没柴烧。

hi Egghead san,

**Running away from a crowd when you are armed and wearing a uniform is an absolute disgrace to your colleagues.**
**Even if need to withdraw from the scene, they should have walked away calmly and in a dignify manner.**

i disagree.
i think they should try to protect the Bus Driver and Bus Lady Attendent in the 1st place. If need to fire warning shots in the air, so be it. Maybe we can not blame them if they are not trained to handle Riot. Blame the Upstair lol. Remember for 40 years we have no Riot.

Wah.... Kbl san and Uncle temperament

You guys watch too much Rambo / Die Hard / etc liao.

Most policeman will not like to fire their weapons (I know because I used to know quite a few of them in one of my previous jobs), although practise at range will shoot until fingers swollen.

Nobody needs a hero in this type of situation, especially a dead one. What happens if the mob decides to lynch the hero?

In fact, I'm quite happy with the outcome (Other than the FW who was unfortunately run over by the bus. From the facts disclosed, it is probably safe to conclude contributory negligence).

Nobody got seriously injured, only some property is damaged, which can easily be replaced.

Good noon HitandRun san,

lucky FT open the door for them...if not they would have been burnt to death

Well, it seems sufficient coverage on the topic. Different views were well presented, and further discussion is not necessary. The topic may be escalated out of its context if continue

Let's close this topic. Further post on this topic will be removed.
