Seriously, you aren't for real, are you? The home owner was "sneaking around her back rooms with lights off at 2 AM"? The policeman's job is to shoot homeowners who "sneak around in their back rooms in the dark at 2 AM"? You are ******* insane.
I am not going to fault a police officer for being on edge while investigating anything in that part of town. He had no idea what was going on in that house. He didn't know who was in or what kind of weapons they were armed with. Turns out he was justified in being concern, because there was apparently a gun inside a drawer. If that lady grabbed the gun she could have killed every single officer. Are they supposed to wait to be fired at before defending themselves? Sorry, but the police have every right to live too. In Iraq or Afghanistan if our troops believe an enemy may be in a house, they don't go knock first. They light the place up and then they clear it. If anything is a problem, it's that our police do not have the firepower they need. We need to start giving every police unit up armored humvees with mounted M2 or M240s or even MK19s for the more dangerous no-go zones often occupied ethnic gangs. Our streets are a war zone and the sooner we recognize this start equipping our police for real anti-insurgency action, the sooner we can retake control of our country and bring back law & order. Until our police officers will continue to be slaughtered on our streets while the liberals cry every time one of their thuggish foot soldiers is killed. As for this particular woman, we have no idea what kind of stuff she could have been up to in her private life. To act as if she is fully innocent is outright ignorant. These lower class people who live in these areas are almost always working together to fight the system. If she wasn't part their terrorist organization, then why are so many of them out there protesting her death? Come on. There is clearly a connection. She was nurse. How many time did she patch up some insurgent after he ambushed one of our officers on patrol?
Let's face reality of what's going on. There is an uprising taking place and it needs to be squashed.
So far we are aware she was guilty of playing video games late at night with an 8 year old and forgot to close her front door! what a bad citizen.

Look, you have to be fair here, I'm all for giving cops the benefit of the doubt based on the job they have and the stress that goes along with it, but he had a WHOLE fraction of a second to determine what crimes she was guilty of.
Do you have a gun in your house? does that make you a threat to the police? I dont want to live in a police state where they can just walk on your property and shoot you through your back window because they are nervous.
THEY (the cops) really needed to identify themselves based on the type of call they were dispatched on.
And your above statement is kind of crazy by the way. You want to live in a police state where people are considered guilty and a threat to the State? This could have been any one of us including yourself.
