More details are emerging on the crazy naked woman with a gun case . . .
Not surprisingly, despite a neighbor’s assertion that Kevin and Joni Park “were not violent or crazy,” it turns out that they were in fact violent and crazy.
In 2004, Kevin Park pleaded guilty to disturbing the peace after initially being charged with assault, battery and trespassing. And he was considered the sane one in the family.
Joni Park had, among other oddball habits, a history of yelling at drivers who turned around in her driveway, and threatening to call the police when someone parked a car in front of her house.
My wife also, for some paranoid reason, hates, hates, hates it when someone parks in front of our house.
So that’s how it all starts. And that, my friends, is why we do not own a gun . . .
Okay…so they were crazy….but is it really necessary to shoot to kill in an instance such as this? Why can’t cops just go for the legs if they feel that they really have to shoot?
I also hate when someone parks in front of my house. I think the police did what needed to be done. We weren’t there, and how many times are poice officers shot and killed for no reason? The police are here to protect us, and not just shoot us at random. These people were crazy.
Iceman –
I’ve seen the Lone Ranger shoot guns right out of people’s hands. That would be the preferred method if you can do it.
I’m failing to see the genius of the “go for the legs” approach though. Is that just to be sporting? Couldn’t someone with a leg wound still shoot back at me? How many officers or bystanders have to take a bullet before I can go for the kill?
I agree!
If you shoot the gun out of there hand, they can not shoot you back. If however they have already fired their gun, the cops should shoot the bullet out of the air. Or duck real quickly.
