This was someone who has no respect for the law or other people.
Last time I checked lack of respect for the law is not reason for use of lethal force.

Yep, only guilty people ever flee.

The poor mom doesn't think her daughter deserved to die? The cop didn't deserve to die, either.

She wasn't killed for shoplifting, she was killed because she tried to kill a cop with a 4000# weapon. Anyone who can't see the distinction is probably a liberal.


Open good morning class " the Woman Killed Was Not The Driver " write this down 100 times........

Or so the officer claims and while I have no reason to doubt his account... so far, my question remains.

How does shooting the driver of a car stop the car and thus end the imminent threat that justifies the use of deadly force?

I've never had anyone, including a cop, answer the question but I'm holding out hope that someday someone will.

That's why they have investigations and trials...

Another Zimmerman situation, we don't know all the facts. Wait and see what really happened. I think in the Zimmerman case there is more than some guy trying to shoot a black kid with pop and candy. Remeber the Tawana Brawley case? It was a KKK thing that launched some people into the spot light like Al Sharpton. It was a kid lying about how she got pregnant. Lets wait and see. Or do you remember the Lacross kids who everyone wanted to string up for raping a black girl, and it was her lying about it.?

Apparently you missed the part about asaulting a officer, and the part about fleeing.. both felonies and then you may want to re-read the part about assault with a motor vehicle... another felony.. What part of this do you not understand? I will try again and talk VERY VERY slowly...
