shocking fall

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26885773/

this story is about a man that was suicidal and was on top of a ledge and the police came and shot a non lethal weapon and he fell to his death.

I think the police use non lethal weapons to much. sometimes they are lethal and can kill or serious injure people. the person in the story was not in any danger of hurting other people. I feel the police could of talked the man down from the railing he was on. or the could of brought a therapist or some other professional in to get the man down from the railing and help him out.

In some situations I believe that non lethal weapons should be used in a lot a situation when they feel that are in any danger at all from a suspect.

To me the situation at hand was handled wrong by the police, and they should have more training on the weapons they use. 

Saggign and Bagging

In Rivera Beach, Fla. a judge decided that a law that banned sagging pants is unconstitutional. This came after a teenage spent a night in jail for having his pants too low while he was riding his bike. I feel that the judge, Paul Moyle was right when he said the law was unconstitutional. What are the police and law makers going to do next? I feel that it is just an attempt to standardize and control how people dress and live there lives. I my self don't like to sag my pants it's not comfortable. This is America we can wear what we want to wear, if I want to be told what to wear I will travel back in time and go to China. If this was really a crime then half the people in the United States should be put in jail for what they wear.
