    Its not about that, its about the fact there is a more efficient way to do this without holding the entire city hostage for so long...

    I can only imagine what the people feel like.

    As it is the danger and point of decision is a suicide vest. With that protecting our own is the #1 priority. From their on you can evaluate whether or not he does and move in.

    If they wanted to kill him, it'd be over already. They need to take him alive, if at all possible.

    Why don't they immobilize him with some gas, knock him out?

    I don't understand what there is to negotiate. :confused:

    Praying it works out with no further loss of life (yes, even dogs, though I applaud the tossed cat idea.)

    EDIT 358: 8:25PM Police told to stay at their post until 2100. Not sure what will happen at 9:00PM but they will fall back to "H4"
    EDIT 357: 8:23PM Chatter about a larger perimeter perhaps beyond the smaller one. Talking about offramps and highway codes.

    I think they are preparing for when they get him and how to get him to a secure facility

    What exactly is there to negotiate?

    Electric chair or lethal injection?

    This is the exact thought that has been going through my head the last hour, but I don't know how feasible it is. It would seem there would be some way to completely knock him out.
