“In fear for her safety and the safety of the public, Officer Wakana Okuma fired at the subject striking her at least once,” police said in a press release.
They had to kill her for her own safety? If she was outside as reported and wasn’t within range of anyone to actually injure them with the drill, I would think there could have been another way to bring down a woman holding a screwdriver than to kill her.
Yep
Not in these modern times. The only permitted response to a person, man woman or child, acting oddly is to shoot and kill. And say, thereafter, "I felt threatened." The justification for shooting a dog or a citizen or anything else is entirely the feeling of the police officer, or actually, the willingness of the officer to say that magical phrase. It is like crimes of "harassment." The existence of a crime depends on the feelings of the member of a protected class who feels, not on the actions or even thoughts of the "perpetrator."
And the officer’s first name was, Chuck!
