Yes I do. I grew up guns. I’ve known since I was six that you KNOW what you are shooting at before you shoot. Mistakes happen. Pulling the trigger fifteen times is not a mistake.
Their job is tough isn’t an excuse to kill people because they are over their heads.
I know it’s a sh*t job. Go watch the video of Ramos spoiling to beat Kelly Thomas.
Quit making excuses for excessive behavior.
What you are saying is when a cop stops me because he think I did a rolling stop late a night, I need to fear for my life because he deals with shit and is justified to have a hair trigger that he assumes I’m a deadly threat to him.
Not acceptable.
Even more dangerous is your attitude only cops can judge cops.
The attitude you display is the attitude that has tolerated the escalating militarization of our police forcec. The civilian public is the enemy.
I know most of the cops are good people. That truely want to help the community. Doing a sh*t job.
But the tolerance for the police training and relying on the overwhelming force is dangerous for our Republic and the population at large.
