Sure sounds like a Police State eh???
My sources are telling me it's normal procedure for Municipal Police to travel to other cities and arrest people in plain clothes. You don't have to have a uniform officer with you.
But the Public don't know this and this is the reason Michel Vienneau was shot dead in Bathurst on January 12th, 2015!

He was surrounded by Plain Clothes Cops and he said - F.. this shit...who are these people and they shot him dead!!!!
I filed a complaint but nothing is being done because they < Cops > are working behind the scenes to protect their Ass!!!
I'm going to put a complaint to Public Safety next week of the fact I made a complaint of assault to the Fredericton Police but they never acted but they sure act fast on a false charge of assault eh????
André, I appreciate your opinion.. But I would suggest to be cautious on commenting use of force procedures by Cops, such as the guy having a knife 20 feet away from police and police shooting him .. You clearly dont have training as a police officer and you have no clue what it is to be involved in a true situation when a police officer is confronted by an armed person.. Did you know that a person 20 feet away from you , armed with a knife, can run towards you and can be successful in stabbing you fatally without the officer having enough time to draw his gun and shoot ?? Takes about 2 seconds and a half .. Read below article which speaks to the 21 feet rule ... I can tell you our Canadian Officers do follow this training Nation Wide and its an approved use of force, accepted by the courts ...
ReplyDelete''Officers throughout the United States have heard use of force instructors discuss the “21 Foot Rule” during their officer safety, firearms and deadly force training. As a use of force instructor and a forensic police practices expert, I have trained and testified to this concept myself.
In 1983, the concept’s founder, Salt Lake City PD police firearms instructor Lt. John Tueller (Ret.) set up a drill where he placed a “suspect” armed with an edged weapon 20 or so feet away from an officer with a holstered sidearm. He then directed the armed suspect to run toward the officer in attack mode. The training objective was to determine whether the officer could draw and accurately fire upon the assailant before the suspect stabbed them. After repeating the drill numerous times, Tueller wrote an article wherein he opined that it was entirely possible for a suspect armed with an edged weapon to successfully and fatally engage an officer armed with a handgun within a distance of 21 feet. The “21 Foot Rule” concept was born and soon spread throughout the law enforcement community almost like a virus.
Tueller never imagined when he designed his simple firearms training drill that, 30 years later, the 21 Foot Rule would eventually become a police doctrine that is taught and testified to hundreds of times a year. ''
