This is More Like It
A relative, ignorant of police procedure and Department policy, finds a reporter willing to listen:
- The brother of a 49-year-old man who was holed up in a South Side motel with a gun said he asked to try to talk him out of possibly taking his life. But police negotiators refused, and the man was shot and killed by officers early Friday morning.
For the enlightenment of all ignorant reporters (but we repeat ourselves), no one gets to talk to the subject except the negotiator. The police might attempt to get info from the relatives to use in negotiation, but they don't get to speak to him.
Oh, and if you come out of a hotel room with a gun, expect to get blasted. We still have yet to see the state law that says we have to be shot at to kill some one.

Maybe it should be said that he took shots at the police then they opened up.....Had he not shot....you know the rest
Uh, sorry to tell you SCC, but family members HAVE been allowed to speak to barricaded subjects on some previous incidents (but not placed in a situation where they could be seen by the subject).
It has happened.
"BUT HE WAS JUS TRYIN TO SCARE YA'LL!"
Okay, whats the next step? Family files wrongful death suit and the city pays it. Even though the police were in the right. Maybe J-Fed will stick up for the boys and what they did, after all, don't the Feds teach those negotiation tactics?
Another lawsuit in the making! The simple rules if you have a gun and refuse to drop it when ordered or point it at the police you will be shot and God willing killed! Simple as that!
speaking of WWIII, everyone missed that when the FOP went into the 1500 roll call in 015 yesterday. way to stick to them phony asses. now they want to come around and shake hands that its election season.
Speaking of shootings; Im sure those 5 women murdered in Tinley PK
yesterday appreciated all the bullshit guns laws in the city/county area.
You whore liberals killed those women as much as that savage that pulled the trigger.
FIGHT THESE GODLESS LIBERALS: JOIN
THE NRA! F*KU SUFFREDIN......
Why, oh why couldn't the police just fire some warning shots or wing him in the arm to get him to surrender?
Let The Tinley park incident be a wake up call boys and girls! Always, Always carry your gun! And carry an extra magazine.
He didn't follow police orders and he had a gun. The perpetrator, who previously aimed the gun at the motel clerk emerged and was shot.
The policemen were not injured and the perpetrator was killed.
Sounds like a good outcome to me as a civilian.
I feel sorry for the police officers that had no choice but to use lethal force to protect their lives.
Everyone is forgetting that the swat officers that shot that piece of garbage and the rest of the team that was there get to go home to their families and loved ones. God Bless and good job boys.
The SWAT team is getting better and better! Keepit up boys!!
"But I'm the one who called y'all!"

Why couldn't they just shoot the gun out of his hands. I saw the Lone Ranger do that on television.

Maybe because he was committing suicide by cop.
And is now thankful that the cops involved were good shots.
As for "...wing him in the arm...", well, take a trip to a gun range, rent a gun, ('cause I know you'd never buy one), buy a hundred rounds and see what it feels like to put holes in paper.
Then, using what imagination you can muster, pretend that the paper is returning fire.
