Although we will never know, she might have hesitated at the moment of truth for fear of prosecution if she fired too hastily on the perp. If cops hesitate in the heat of action...good cops don't come home."
You ***** are some of the biggest racist morons around. You honestly believe an unarmed man running away from the police is equivalent to an armed man shooting at police.
Gun fights happen. Some win, some lose. Sometimes innocent people are killed, and sometimes the bad guys are killed. The street is a dangerous place, for both the general public and for cops. Sometimes the killings are justifies, and other times it's cold blooded murder. Shit happens.
Street would not be dangerous if politicians, parents, and cops all do their jobs. Instead politicians (and college profs) and parents make excuses for bad behavior.
With the population as huge as it is, crime will happen regardless. Not only by citizens, but by non-citizens, as we are well aware of. Our streets are infested with illegal drugs, gangs, thugs, rogue cops, turf wars, the mentally challenged, the suicidal, the homicidal, the crazies, the basket cases, the hateful and vengeful, and the mean spirited. Remember, we have well over 300,000,000 people living here. No one can expect everyone to get along and respect each other. We are a much divided citizenry, where racism and hatred flourish.
