Free the weed, and this sort of thing won't happen. To hell with the crims!

Mess with a man's weed, and pay the consequences....maybe he HAS nothing else.

If certain people need weed to live a "normal" ,life then they deserve to be removed from society. We have 'natural' highs and lows, and people of character deal with it. Once you mess with thise life rhythms you get the neurotic idiots who cause so much aggro.

Wow. That sucks for those Officers. Shot-up by some pot-head who needs his THC fix to escape reality. Pathetic loser.

Glad NO officers were killed.

violence against police is rare in New Zealand, where patrol officers typically don’t carry firearms.

Issue them 9mm, 40 or 45 semi-automatic duty weapons. The "bad guys" are armed, why not the cops.

The officers shot, however, were all members of a special unit whose members carry weapons and wear protective outfits.

I doubt they were a special unit. A pot-head almost took 4 of them out. Perhaps they should go back to the drawing board and learn proper tactics.

Obviously, they need bigger and better guns.

That's just math.
