    You know what else is common sense? Not commenting on a topic when you don’t have all the facts. How do you know the force was appropriate? Cos all I’m reading says that gunman appears to have been killed after he’d been subdued. Hence the charges.

      Then nobody ever can comment on anything, because such a thing as having all the facts doesn’t exist.

      That seems like a silly hight bar. How about we throw in reading comprehension to the list?

      Lets compare:

      How do you know the force was appropriate

      I’ll highlight important words for you:

      But if he was shooting pub goers then they could use appropriate force to stop him.

      Hope that helps you out.

        Nah, you’re trying to imply that what happened is totally fine cos they were responding to the attack. Why even comment otherwise given the person you’re replying to had already made that distinction? It’s doubly confusing cos the person you replied to also made it clear that the death happened after the shooter had been subdued. You might as well have gone to a Pokemon instance and started spouting off about dragon ball z for all the relevance you had with your initial comment.

        Okay, here’s some reading comprehension for you. The person you intially replied to made it clear that the death of the gunman happened after the gunman was subdued. They also said that appropriate force would be reasonable if he was actively shooting. You’ve basically repeated what they’ve said, trying to antagonise a response. It’s a shitty way to try and have a discussion, and I’m gonna call people out on this every day of the week. Be better.

          Oh? WokerOne made that clear? Incorrect. So… Kinda invalidates your rude remark… And is the basis for my argument. Hence the repetition. Nor did the parent comment make that clear either. Certainly suggests it might be the case. But, when sommone follows that up with its own premise and context, and you ignore it, is on you. The usefulness of a conversation after that point is also lost. But again, that’s on you.

            The article says “after the shooting” the gunman was killed.

            Pretty fucking clear to me. Note it doesn’t say “during” or any of its synonyms.

              Yes… Meh. This is boring. You don’t really understand what it is you failed to understand. But that’s alright.

                You don’t understand basic English comprehension.

                Let’s break down your initial comment.

                But if he was shooting pub goers

                He wasn’t so the rest of your comment is irrelevant. He had shot pub goers, but he wasn’t when he was killed. He had been subdued. Don’t need to break down the rest cos it’s as useful as you are in general to society, not very.
