What I do not understand is why these bully idiot policeman don’t let the moron run and simply arrest him later. You don’t get to shoot someone for a traffic violation and you don’t get to shoot someone in the back who doesn’t “obey” your lame command to “stop”.
I did not post this to rehash the stupid police decision. The purpose of the post was to illustrate the media’s role in continually stirring resentment that resulted from that stupid decision.
He was a violent fleeing felon who was willing to attack a peace officer to avoid going to jail. He would be just as wiling to take one of your loved ones hostage to avoid jail.
Let him escape and arrest him later? That’s a new style of police work I haven’t heard of, where did you find that tactic?
