keep your bias to yourself

Bias? The a-holes shot and killed THE WRONG MAN during a volley of undisciplined gunfire against someone who had an Airsoft gun.

Obvious is obvious and it is not biased to say so.

Yeah, bias. Your a-holes comment makes that apparent. After viewing the film footage the chief and the Cops producer said that the police officers responded professionally, not undisciplined gunfire. Range experience is disciplined fire. This is a real life tactical situation that start to finish is less than 15 seconds; not you or me or anyone else firing on the range under controlled conditions so get off of your soapbox.

20/20 hindsight.

I read you, and equally critical of many police officers in articles posted here, but the scenario painted by witnesses & the story is simply a tragic accident brought about by a stupid person with a fake gun.

I can’t fault the officers here.

Research ‘stress-induced tunnel vision’.
