It’s pretty hard to find any case of a cop shooting a civilian where somebody here won’t give them the ‘benefit of the doubt’, or ‘wait until all the facts are in’, or blather ‘why don’t you become a cop then’ or some such jackboot licking pontification.

So waiting until we know the facts and sticking with the *innocent until proved guilty* concept our justice system is SUPPOSED to be based on is now *jackboot licking*?

I suppose the fact that there are real human being wearing those uniforms has escaped your attention in your LE hatred.

An agent of the state, with lethal force that I as a citizen am not allowed to have.

*I* am the one that gets the benefit of the doubt, as are you.

Those ‘real human beings’ at least around here, shoot mentally disturbed people with sticks and kids with BB guns. And dogs. And get off.

If a ‘civilian’ is shot there had BETTER be, and immediately made available, clear camera footage showing that the LOE had NO OTHER option. Otherwise we ‘civilians’ are the ones that pay the price in lawsuits and property destroyed.

The news cycle, and the public’s NEED and RIGHT to know are now, in the 21st century, measured in hours and minutes.
