44 minutes

Post by Strangler »

Anyone seen it? It was based on the 1997 North Hollywood bank shootout. What I wonder is how the real shooters looked like. Anyone seen a picture of them? By the way why were the two suspects killed? Why not arrested and taken to prison?

"but also over the fact that, after Phillips shot himself, the cops shot down and left Matasareanu to bleed to death over some 30 minutes, not calling an ambulance because (depending on whom you read) their focus was on civilians who were less severely wounded, and they were unsure that the gunman wasn't booby-trapped. This led to a lawsuit filed on behalf of his children. However you feel about this turn of events, leaving it out completely is only one of many instances where 44 Minutes simplifies rather than complicates the horrors of that day in North Hollywood."

Damm these cops were assholes.

I heard both of them were white. why is it that white guys generally tend to be bank robbers, and serial killers while minorities tend to be the agressive black guys beating up people at pizza shops and other places or gang bangers?

After robbing a bank and shooting folks with your ak's, I say let you bleed in the streets too; take the injured folks and cops you shot first, you have no right to immediate care when you were responsible for the actions that caused your bleeding out.. :D dumbasses..

I like it how criminals break the law and then decide their rights aren't being respected, mofo's obey the laws and you wouldn't have that problem.

Regardless; it's not up to the police to decide who gets treatment first, it's up to medical personel on the scene.

yea but technically just because they are criminals doesnt mean they arent citizens of the UNited States and deserve equal treatment. And clearly that guy was in alot worse shape than most of those people hence the reason he died (lack of care or no care at all).
