What about the security guard that was killed last week? He was killed by a cop while the other officers were screaming "he's one of us!"?
Is that blue privilege?
Yep. The cops will probably get away with it.

Is it blue privilege when ambush killings of officers are up over 170% this year?
22k US police officers have been killed in the line of duty. That's the same as a large war. 1500 of those were killed in the last decade and the numbers are climbing.
Police work isn't even in the top 10 most dangerous jobs. It's nearly 10 times more dangerous to be a logger than it is to be a cop.
How very fascist of you. You sound just like a right-winger.
A 73 year-old Vietnam vet who was hard of hearing didn't hear the police commands--IN HIS OWN HOUSE.
Wasn't there a time when the left was opposed to authoritarianism? Maybe I imagined it, because nowadays they are some of the loudest apologists of state violence.
I saw the body cam video, there were shots fired inside the house when the officers arrived and that they clearly heard. They knew they were dealing with an active shooter and didn't know who it was.
The shooter, albeit using justified deadly force, ignored commands to drop the weapon and walked out of the room with it in his hand. After just hearing two gunshots, the officer acted accordingly, even though mistakenly.
People who carry handguns and ignore police commands should expect to be shot.

The only time the left gets angry over State violence is when a black guy is shot by cops. I guarantee if the homeowner had been black odanny and the other leftists would be raising hell right now.
That reminds me--where is BLM regarding this incident? Where are the protests?
He should have let the intruder murder his grandson.
