Pulis 'di kailangang mag-warning shot --Supreme Court

[leolop]

all supreme court decisions have to be read and understood in its entirety. you cannot just isolate the dispositive portion (the part that gives the ruling on the case) and then take this as the general rule

as always, all supreme court decisions are made with the particular facts of the case on hand.

in this case, the supreme court, rightly or wrongly, made a judgement as to the lack of the need of a warning shot.

i would be interested in reading the full text of this decision and find out more. paki post naman ang title ng case and date of the decision

second the motion. kahit month of the decision ok na para mahanap sa website ng supreme court (assuming it's a 2005 case). very interested rin kasi ako dun sa particular circumstances surrounding the case.

guys, sana wag naman tayo mabilis mag condemn ng human rights and human rights advocates, many of whom are victims themselves or families of victims of human rights violations. kahit naman sila would agree that shooting in self defense or out of necessity is a justifying circumstance.

i think the key words in nugundam93's post "headingfor you" and "attacker". i think there is already a definite immediate threat here. while you can't shoot a robber running away, you definitely can shoot one that is going after you, irregardless of whether that attacker is armed or unarmed. why pwede kahit unarmed? because you will not stop to ask him first if he has a black belt in karatedo that's why.

Shooting a warning shot is never an option, and is against the law in most if not all in the States.

i don't see the point kasi minsan with "human rights" advocates.

they take pity on the suspect but what about the victim and the family of the victim?

korek ka jan sir nugundam ...pag ginawa n mga pulis trabaho nila ...na paningin ng taga human rights may nilabag sila ...pag minalas sila pa nakasuhan ...pero kung sila naman naagrabyado...

basta para sa ako iputok ko na lang talaga agad..wala na arning warning pa...
makaka ilag pa at baka makatakbo pa lalo
