How to delete polygons?

I'm selecting random polygons from an object, depending on a percentage with this code:

random.seed(rand)
selection=op.GetPolygonS()
selection.DeselectAll()
pnum=op.GetPolygonCount()
for i in range(pnum) :
    rnd1=random.random()
    if rnd1<kill:
        selection.Select(i)

This part seems to be working fine.
But when I call the delete command with

c4d.CallCommand(12109)

I get a crash!!
So, how can I delete the selected polygons?
Oh, the op object in not in the document. It is an object created inside my code.

Ok, nevermind... I just used the SendModelingCommand command to delete the polygons instead of the CallCommand and it worked fine.

You might have to use a temp doc in memory as a workshop area to construct and delete the polygons in your object.
Then copy it to the active document and kill the temp doc when you're finished.

Oops..I wasn't fast enough.

Thank you, Scott.
Your solution may come in handy for other types of things, though
