    Quoted from her husband as well, "Where's the evidence that my wife threatened a train officer?" The evidence is the huge impact on the windshield when your wife tried to run him over you moron. Just another reason why I hate Californians. And people in general.


    I also love the title they gave the story, which I also posted, failing to mention that he was first ran down.

    Why didn't he call an ambulance? Well, when you shoot someone in the head, a lot of the time it's a bit too late for medical help.

    OMG, the Deputy Chief said the the dreaded words "fearing for his life". Guess he doesn't know that phrase is forbidden here.

    Not when it's a reasonable fear. I'd have to guess that stuck there on the hood of the vehicle that just hit you, still moving down the road and the driver obviously doing it all intentionally would qualify as a reasonable fear for your life...
