Ouuuu I smell a BIG FAT settlement on this one...All the guy has to do is go on the news and tell his story about what a cluster fk the Amarillo police are. They will scurry away like cock roaches from the light.

I'm guessing the cops figured that if they were shooting at the suspect, he wouldn't continue shooting at them for fear of being hit.

Guess it worked.
You actually believe the fairy tales you make up..

You have your head so far up your azz you don't know what time of day it is...

All you ever do is paste and post...do you ever have an original thought? Well I guess you do, and this ^^^^ this is it..stick with your paste and post. It is better to be thought of as Mortimer Snerd than prove it by opening your mouth.

I am just tired of it all...the constant consternation of right and left, establishment and outsider and the jumbled intermingling of each pov in the mix. You can't tell what is up or down anymore..everything is becoming "fake news." Nobody can tell you the time of day anymore and be believed, even when everybody can see the clock on the wall and tell what time it is. There is no common consensus of what reality really is.

That in essence is the fruition of the "swirl of madness" that I have been so eloquently and articulately telling you all about for so long. I told you it was going to get worse...

The prognosis is not good. It is going to look like a scene right out of Dante's Inferno. The tragedy is you brought it all upon yourselves.

So, let me get this straight.
Kids grow up watching TV shows, news coverage, and Movies where cops get shot at.
They go to the police academy where they are taught to use firearms and deal with bad guys.
They are required to periodically tested on fire arms usage.
They are legally empowered to open carry and discharge a firearm.

And they are afraid and/or incompetent at using a firearm?

'cause he's not Chuck Norris

Chuck Norris doesn't need bodyguards. Bodyguards need Chuck Norris.

is that one hand or 2?
standing?

JULES
(to himself)
We should be ****in' dead right now.
(pause)
Did you see that gun he fired at us?
It was bigger than him.

VINCENT
.357.

JULES
We should be ****in' dead!

VINCENT
Yeah, we were lucky.

Jules rises, moving toward Vincent.

JULES
That **** wasn't luck. That **** was
somethin' else.

Vincent prepares to leave.

VINCENT
Yeah, maybe.

JULES
That was... divine intervention. You
know what divine intervention is?

VINCENT
Yeah, I think so. That means God
came down from Heaven and stopped
the bullets.

JULES
Yeah, man, that's what is means.
That's exactly what it means! God
came down from Heaven and stopped
the bullets.

VINCENT
I think we should be going now.

JULES
Don't do that! Don't you ****in' do
that! Don't blow this **** off!
What just happened was a ****in'
miracle!

VINCENT
Chill the **** out, Jules, this ****
happens.

JULES
Wrong, wrong, this **** doesn't just
happen.

VINCENT
Do you wanna continue this theological
discussion in the car, or at the
jailhouse with the cops?

JULES
We should be ****in' dead now, my
friend! We just witnessed a miracle,
and I want you to ****in' acknowledge
it!

VINCENT
Okay man, it was a miracle, can we
leave now?

EXT. HOLLYWOOD APARTMENT BUILDING – MORNING

The Chevy Nova PROPELS itself into traffic.

INT. NOVA (MOVING) – MORNING

Jules is behind the wheel,Vincent in the passenger seat and
Marvin in the back.

VINCENT
...Ever seen that show "COPS?" I
was watchin' it once and this cop
was on it who was talkin' about this
time he got into this gun fight with
a guy in a hallway. He unloads on
this guy and he doesn't hit anything.
And these guys were in a hallway.
It's a freak, but it happens.


JULES
If you wanna play blind man, then go
walk with a Shepherd. But me, my
eyes are wide ****in' open.

VINCENT
What the **** does that mean?

JULES
That's it for me. For here on in,
you can consider my *** retired.

Don't blaspheme!

JULES
– I said don't do that –

VINCENT
– you're ****in' freakin' out!

JULES
I'm tellin' Marsellus today I'm
through.

VINCENT
While you're at it, be sure to tell
'im why.

JULES
Don't worry, I will.

VINCENT
I'll bet ya ten thousand dollars, he
laughs his *** off.
