    "nothing to see, citizen.. move along"

    This judgement is going to fo a far way to making the average northern BC resident seriously question the honesty of the RCMP. I wonder if we'll see a flock of small towns comming up with their own police forces now.

    I think this was the right call. I think it's entirely plausible that you could shoot a guy in the back of the head in self-defense if he's on your back, I think the pictures released of the officer's injuries demonstrate that he was under attack, and I heard an excerpt of his call for assistance and he seemed genuinely panicked and worried about what had happened.

    I'm assuming that's sarcasm?

    No, it's my sincere opinion. Why do you assume it's sarcasm? Do you disagree?

    There was no self defense in this matter
    And for all we know those injuries could have been administered by another cop, to help cover up the truth.
    Even if charges were laid we as a society refuse to convict a cop.
    Imagine joining the rcmp and have to enforce liquor laws must have been a major disappointment

    Why do we allow the police to get away with it?

    The problem is, for the general public, the image is reality and this stinks to high heaven. The officer got a good deal of time to compose himself and his story and thats suspicious in the public eye.
    I disagree with the police investigating police.

    I'm sorry, Hurley - this makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

    If a guy is on your back, are you going to take your gun, reach all the way behind both yourself and him and shoot him in the BACK of his head? First off, you run the risk of missing and shooting the back of your head, and second - how long are your arms, anyway?

    When if you grab someone from behind, you're going to look to the side so he can't snap his head back and break your nose or something, so the side of his head could have been pressed against the officer's head, making it a relatively easy shot. I can reach behind my head as if holding a gun, to shoot sideways, and I think I have a reasonable idea whether or not it's pointed at my own head. I think it's plausible.

    Did Mr. Bush have a criminal record, or at least a record of violence?

    Reminds me of my buddy who was shot in the gut and the back of the head while in a holding cell,the RCMP said it was self defence and 2 mistrials occurred,he finally went back to court and was charged with murder,the RCMP are very very good at protecting their own.murder or self defence?

    One has to wonder why the Blood Splatter Pattern doesn't support the self defense. The pattern wouldn't lie
