Then why would an officer approach the car of an alleged "armed robbery suspect" alone? Why not wait and bring back up? Why not just tail the suspect until back up is on the way? Rationalizing the irrational is what makes you and others look like you are nutjobs. Wait until the police sanitize and filter their reports and we should have a clearer picture of what happened. We can ask the victims for their input but dead people don't talk.

Let me see if I have this correct Ruby Ridge = Patriots Waco = Patriots Fly an airplane into the IRS Building = Patriot Armed take over of a gov't buildng at a wildlife refuge in Oregon = Patriots Peaceful protest over wrongful deaths by police = Racist Agitators

Now I have hijacked 3 other accounts? Including this one? I had no idea how talented I was. Is it okay if I start posting as you next? Do you think anyone will notice?

You agree with it because it fits your political agenda. Damn the flawed methodology, it gave you the results you wanted.

Since you ignored everything else I said, you think it's just fine to kill a man because he was racially profiled and "looked like a suspect"? I couldn't tell you how many friends I grew up with that fit the description. The only description he fit was a "wide set nose" viewed by an officer looking into a car? Be prepared? What are we boyscouts now? If you are "prepared" 9/10 times, be careful on that tenth time because you may end up dead. Guy kills 9 people in a church and the officer isn't afraid of him. On the way to jail gets Burger King for him because he was hungry. Guy "fits t

Why would anyone have to do that? So if you forget to do it, you may be shot? A congressperson, Gabby Giffords, was shot point blank in the head and the suspect was apprehended. Ronald Reagan was shot, suspect apprehended. President Kennedy was killed, suspect apprehended. Guy shoots up a movie theater in Colorado and he is apprehended. Another guy kills 9 people in a church and is apprehended and taken to Burger King because he was hungry. Now if you are alleged to have a broken tail light with a toddler in the car, you should fear for your life and the toddler's life because a police off

The study may have been a genuine attempt for understanding of the subject matter but I believe the economics professor is outside of his area of expertise.

Selective outrage and Bill Clinton lied about sex was all the rage for wingnuts. Make up your mind, I'm TP, TBar and now I'm the mystery person that hijacked COWA's display name. Consistency doesn't elude you when it comes to misinformation.

And LE shooting law abiding citizens should improve things in your opinion? Just can't stay away when I'm posting can ya Foxmeister? You miss me don't you?

Nice to see your hypocrisy hasn't lost its edge. Learn from the past or repeat it.

Dick Cheney shot his friend in the face and outed undercover CIA agent Valerie Plame. He destroyed a CIA front company that spent years of not decades of tax payer dollars to establish in roads into the black market sales of yellow cake. By outing Valarie Plame he put the lives of anyone associated with her and that worked with her in danger. We don't know how many people may have died as a result. Scooter Libby fell on his sword and got a commuted sentence. Anyone else that had done all of this would be in jail and not have his sentence commuted. We may even know more about it if emails a

That is a broad statement. If a bailiff in a courtroom reasonably fears for his life and follows that guideline, he could potentially kill the judge in the courtroom if he misses the target. A school police officer can kill accidentally kill children based on "reasonable fear". The only way to determine reasonable fear is through a trial. If most officers would not shoot under the circumstances, then the discharge of a weapon is not reasonable. This is reasonably the the best post you have ever made. Thank you so much for this. I do this with most of your posts.

It's things like this that create animosity and an atmosphere of distrust of police in the black community. Thankfully the department isn't making excuses and waiting for someone to spin talking points that justify despicable acts.

Similarly in the 80s and 90s crack addicts and other nonviolent drug offenders who only hurt themselves should all be thrown in prison. When it's a meth or opiate addiction, we suddenly need compassion for these types of drug users. Put a methadone clinic on every street corner as opposed to throwing heroin addicts in jail.

They had a permit for the gun. I haven't read about MJ in the car but I wasn't aware that was a capital crime either. You know what? You are completely right. I looked at the video of the aftermath again and the toddler was running next to the car as the adults rode down the street. You know "those people" are like gazelles. When they are born they drop to the ground and start running. Toddler had to be running alongside the car at about 30 miles per hour before the car was pulled over.

Actually, he "thought" President Lincoln had a gun and was in "fear" for his life.

I see CC's Dubya and raise him one "VP of Shooting Friends in the Face" and blows the cover of CIA operatives wasting millions of tax payer dollars and years of creating inroads to black market yellow cake sales.

The cop has training, equipment, bullet proof vest and the option of waiting for back up. The child is totally dependent upon the judgment of adults. The cop "thinks" but doesn't know with certainty that there is even a gun because he never saw it before he started firing. Your judgment is as clouded as the Keystone Killer Cop. What do you "think" the cop is going to say when he finds out he is wrong? I "feared" for my life and I "thought" he had a gun. I was brave enough to confront the person without back up but I was too chickencheeze to refrain from firing my weapon in the direction of

She hasn't been charged with a crime so yes, why was she detained? Why was her phone and Facebook account taken from her if she wasn't being charged with a crime? Why was it not returned to her upon release? An attempt by LE to control the release of information? This reminds me of the overflowing gravel dump truck that has the sign on the back that says "Not responsible for objects thrown from road".

So you are willing to allow LE to rush to judgment and endanger toddlers. That is your definition of a "heroic action"? As opposed to waiting for back up and ensuring everyone's safety? I'm not sure what changed about you over the years DallasRED but the change in you is disappointing.

You can't even provide a name of the leader. That would imply to me that you spread misinformation and half truths. You: The leader of BLM said [blank] Me: Who is the leader of BLM according to you? You: That does not deserve an answer. Edited to add that according to Wiki: Which of those three individuals said what you claim? Please provide a link to what was said and by whom. Or are you just spreading rumors and innuendo?

The Keystone Killer Cop had no right to fire his weapon into a car with a child in it. That so many of you agree with this line of thinking is startling. If he is willing to risk a child's life he is a coward. If he is that afraid he should wait for backup. If someone intends to shoot at police, they don't pull over and start conversing with the police officer before they pull out their gun and start shooting. They certainly don't announce that they are armed to remove the element of surprise. According to the girlfriend, the police officer instructed him to give him his license. Where

According to you, who has been designated by you to be their leader?

We don't know what was concealed by the loss of 5 million emails. Transparency is the purpose of sunshine laws. Without the emails it is impossible to determine if concealment from the public was one of the reasons the private "campaign strategy" email servers were used. You dismiss the emails as "campaign strategy" without having viewed the emails. How do you know that's all that was discussed in the millions of lost emails? What if Hillary becomes CiC and decides to use "campaign strategy" email servers during her time as President? Should we accept her word that only "campaign strategy

Wow.
