UK Police Shoot Martial Artist and my capslock button is stuck

UK police have shot dead a woman - described as a ‘martial arts expert’ - in the English city of Kent. This time the suspect was waving what appeared to be a gun.

A gun. Always, of course, the first choice of weapon for the traditional martial artist…

If she was armed with nunchuks I’m not going to stop laughing until August.

“A firearm was discharged” Yeah the policeman’s…you’d think there would be a definitive “Lady threatens peoples lives with gun. Got shot. Hoorah!” Why the confusion?

“What appeared to be a gun”? Do they mean a fake gun or do they mean she was waving a sausage roll in a threatening manner and they thought it might be a gun?
:qleft7:

the dog ate my capslock button,
i swearto god.

Apparently she was a Mentaly Ill woman doing a suicide by cop with a BB gun. She is being described as a martial arts “fan” in todays news, not an expert any more then.

Once upon a time in china anyone?

and on a separate note

wonder if they sprikled crack on her after they found her “gun”

I once saw police in Glasgow surround and order a suspected gunman to the ground at rifle point to discover the gun was actualy a roll of toilet paper. I bet he needed it shortly after.
