.... What an awful movie that was

Nightcrawler > those losers.

However Deadpool > nightcrawler?

I loved that movie.

As for deadpool? WTFIH?

..... Deadpool is a character in the marvel universe who knows he's in a comic book. He will often break the fourth wall. He found out he had an incurable form of cancer and joined the weapon X program (the same one as Wolverine) and because he did so, had wolverine's healing factor genetically put into him. But it works differently. It works off emotion. If he's pissed, he will regenerate faster for example. However when they did this it fucked with the cancer and left him scared, and it wouldn't heal. So he will very rarely take off his mask. While in weapon X he was deemed a failure, so he was sent to be experimented on. There was something called the "deadpool" of who would be next to die. Apparently his odds were really low, so he tried to get himself killed. In doing so he met Death, and fell in love with her (how appropriate it's a woman ). Finally the experimenters (Dr. Killbrewe if I remember right) decided to just kill him. But his healing factor kicked in and saved him. But he went pretty much batshit crazy when it happened. So now he is a mercenary who thoroughly enjoys killing people. He has a holographic emitter much like nightcrawler does, and has a device that allows him to teleport like nightcrawler. But he has the healing factor of wolverine. He was in the military and thus has martial arts and weapons training, and uses primarily guns and swords. The healing factor messing with the cancer also gave him superhuman strength, agility, and reflexes.

Oh and he's a huge smart ass. For instance.

All from memory too. What a geekout.

His court appearance today has been delayed.

His appearance isn't delayed, the first one is DONE. He's off to get his head examined.

Though I suppose if we're talking with people who think if one afternoon your Mom dropped her cards on the table, grabbed garden shears and snipped off her bridge partner's head and ate her intestines she IS sane, and propose that if the other players were required by law to carry concealed Glocks as if that WAS sane... the whole point is somewhat moot.

What are the chances of missing the biggest part of the body from a foot away?

Very very good. You watch cops right? I've seen episodes where cops and criminals empty clips firing at each other from close range and they fail to hit anything.

No, the criticism is correct. Its to dangerous to fire guns in confined crowded spaces unless you don't care about hitting bystanders.

Experienced police officers said they did the right thing by getting out and waiting for the authorities to arrive.

If somebody could have intervened in time to save Tim Mclean then I agree that they should have but I won't fault anybody for doing exactly what they did.

cops will always say that. Remember they are the ones that tell u to offer no resistance, be a willing victim, nothing bad will happen.

see, ....

Again I find myself agreeing with Derby. None of us was there, therefore none of us know EXACTLY what happened, the time frame involved, the proximity of lunatic to victim. I hate to say it, but in this case it seems the only smart option was to get everyone else off the bus safely.

People with limited pistol experience have very little idea of how hard it is to hit a stationary target while standing on a regular range, let alone on a moving vehicle with limited space and adrenaline pumping through you. As for 9mm ammo, from that range it just might punch through the body and hit someone other than the lunatic.

Without anyone on board being better armed than "Hannibal Lector" getting everyone off the bus was the best plan.
