#1 They really need to consult with the RAB about how these things are done. ;-)

Among those killed were 12 suspected members of the gang and a police officer.

Now that's more like the kill ratio I like to see.

#3 15 for 0 is what I'd like to see.

I'll bet this gang and the MILF are linked.

#5 perhaps a RAB "encounter":

3AM, a bad guy gets pulled from the squad car trunk, gets a tap behind the ear, a gun and 2 rounds of bullet get thrown to the ground, then picked up, ambulance gets the call, "he's dead, Jim".
