Yeah, he was carrying a TOY AK-47. Okay, it’s dangerous. But couldn’t they withhold fire until they talked him down?
What happened to ask questions first and shoot later?
We thoughts cops were only to use deadly force when it is used on them. That’s what the military must do even in hostile war zones. Military can’t kill civilians indiscriminately, but our own cops (who are supposed to protect us) can?
When is this going to end? When are the politicians we elected going to get a handle on this?
These are the same cops who want to retire at age 50.
