I don’t have the ability.” “I don’t know if I’m shooting, how can I shoot? If the team finishes fighting, do you want to burial?” He thinks only Relying on two police officers is not enough to cope with the situation. "We (the police force) don't want to kill people. If you rush into the burial ground as a group, I fire 12 shots. Do you want to kill 12 first?"
