Seems to be lost on some, not everyone with a badge is a good guy.

Than there are some(as heard in this video) who get rattled too quickly, they don't belong in this line of work.

A good example is the officer in PA who shot and killed a man she had in handcuffs laying on the ground, all started with a traffic stop. She was facing murder charges, because that's exactly what it was.
But did she intentionally kill an restrained suspect, or was it an accidental discharge of her weapon because of incompetence?

Heck look at this video where the female cop accidentally shoots her weapon at a suspect in custody and almost shoots the cop near the suspect.

Affirmative action has created such low standards (physical, intelligence, psychological, criminal records) to become a cop, many departments are having people with no business being behind a badge as part of their force.

I just keep out of the police's way in which ever country I am in, and sadly breaking a window has cost this man his life.

As for BLM's it is now often seen as an Anti-White organisation, yet expects white people to offer sympathy for it's cause.
I think you've hit the nail on the head! Because everyone in the USA has the right to have a gun in a pocket, police have to expect that everyone has a gun. The have to err on the side of caution, and if they see something that looks like a gun in the hand of a non-compliant fleeing suspect, shooting is more likely.

What is so fricken hard to understand???
This sums everything up perfectly. I'll never understand how so many people in this world will excuse savage behavior and make every excuse in the book to gloss over how these people take down everyone else's quality of life like we're supposed to grin and bear it

Pick the first one where a 17 year old kid walking down the center of the street notices cop cars and starts walking toward the sidewalk.

So the latest locally--Rev. Al Sharpton will be arriving by/before Thursday. He says there "hasn't been enough media attention" to the matter--I'm sure he'll be heating it up.

Plus, the Sacramento Kings will be wearing Clark teeshirts at their game today to honor the suspect. Plus they're (or at least one of them) is paying for Clark's funeral.

BLM was quiet over the weekend--not enough people to disrupt, apparently.

You've just proved your beliefs are only for those you deem fit to deserve human rights.

No better than the government you purport to hate on a daily basis in this forum.
You have obviously got me confused with someone else.
