Way to go Salt Spring Island
Shoots with Nikon D2H
V8 power right there. Wow. No I don't think they should have shot. Good on the cops for not.
if this were in America he would be dead
But since they're Mounties, they've apologized for getting in his way?
I'm on Saltspring. Could hear the sirens. It's summer season, so the island is filled with delta bravos right now. It's not exactly Kelowna and the Red Tide (Alberta plates), but it's definitely going to feel different after Labour Day again.
I'm no fan of the cops, but I'd say these guys handled it the right way. Somewhere between shooting and apologizing (as suggested above), seems to be what happened here.
Where's the guy going to go? Being a dick and smashing cars doesn't carry the death sentence.
The real crime here is shooting video in portrait mode. That should be punishable by death.

In this case, it would have been the better option.
It is easy to dodge our responsibilities, but we cannot dodge the consequences of dodging our responsibilities.

Officer was injured and the driver was apparently impaired. The whole apprehension under the Mental Health Act is I believe SOP when the perp decides to do self harm.

Freedom of contract. We sell them guns that kill them; they sell us drugs that kill us.
Should of shot him, Also whoever was cheering
Agreed.
I'm glad they didn't shoot him, I think they knew who they were dealing with and took extra caution.
