This was unnecessary. The police have no respect for life, except their own. My new SOP is to never call the police no matter what is happening, someone innocent might get killed and it’s highly unlikely that the police are going to prevent anything bad from happening anyway. Much more likely that bad things will escalate as soon as they arrive.
Police training needs to change. The value of citizens lives needs to be placed above the lives of police. Sounds strange? Not at all. Lots of occupations require putting one’s life in severe danger in order to save the lives of others. Police need to learn that they cannot put their lives above the safety of innocents and they need to give the benefit of the doubt to citizens, not assume anyone not listening to them is a criminal.
Police need to man up and be more like fireman, coast guard, and others that risk their lives for the public. Their lives are not more valuable than our kid’s lives and if they can’t handle it they should find a new occupation.
We are living in a police state no different from those we have historically condemned. The police kill far more people in this country than any terrorists could manage.
My earlier post aside, I absolutely agree.
As a matter of fact, I contribute to our state sheriffs association because the money goes to education in the law, life saving, etc.
When they ask for money, I always ask if any of it, even one penny, goes to any support of any kind for SWAT teams, armored personnel carriers, etc., and whether any member department has such equipment or departments.
However, in this case I still would wait to see what the court case divulges.
