I have a 6'2" 16y/o teenage that you should be afraid of if he charges you, clothes or not. He can wrestle a grizzly and I imagine take the weapon off most police officers in uniform today. Yes, one should be afraid of naked drug induced kids that don't respond to commands to lie down. If my son did that, I would be right behind the police. I raised him better than that, he knows that his action has consequences. Only a fool would suggest a police officer take a beating from some of these kids now days. Now days around with around 15% of the force being women (13% in 2007), there is even a further physical difference. Police have a right to go home at the end of the day too. They also have an obligation not to allow thugs from taking their weapons and hurting more people. If an off-duty police officer charges another on duty police officer, he deserves to be shot just the same as anyone else.
since killing is basically justified for police to commit under any circumstance whatsoever
Except this was not "any circumstance". The police officer did not just drive up and shoot the kid. He was charged by the thug.
Honestly you cop haters make me sick.
Amen!
Honestly, you bootlickers who interpret any criticism of cops as "cop hating" make me sick. Nothing gets better without criticism, oversight and even competition. Cops have basically none of that, they "do it themselves" and are protected by rabid dogs like you that bristle over every slight. Grow the hell up - cops are bureaucrats with guns. They are not military, and they're not supposed to be military.
