    • Don’t tell people to shut up, you are so rude, as many people have mentioned previously.

      Perhaps I should have taken the water pistol, and not the spud gun.

      Wow! Exciting, a helicopter, by the way, it has now gone.

    • Which innocent people have been shot ?

      The report makes no mention of anybody having been shot.

      When did the shooting happen and how many people have been hurt or killed ?

  1. The report says officers were in Clifton Gardens, while others were spotted in the park.

    Probably not a good time for them to be playing in the park, while others work at Clifton Street.

  2. Now now children don’t get your weapons out you may get soaked leave the real stuff to the armed police

      I love the punctuation, makes it very difficult to read, but I suspect you don’t have a problem with the children’s books you read.

      But wait, what’s that smell?

      It’s smells like eutrophication, probably happens every time you open your mouth, and poke your nose in, little tough man.
