How about finding out what went on? If the two in the hospital were cuffed, then the police obviously have them in custody on a charge

I was responding to that. OBVIOUSLY, apparently they were not on a charge.

"The perps threatened to shoot the undercover cop inside the club. The undercover cop called for backup. The perps ran ouf of the club, jumped into their car and rammed the backup van and hit one of the backup officers as they were coming to the undercover cop's aid. The perps most likely sold drugs to the undercover cop in the club. The full story will come to light very soon."

I agree with your last sentence only. It's not clear at all what happened or how, or which side is at primary fault here. I will say that when people get shot, the burden is on the cops to justify it. Let's hope they can.

"Sounds like you're already against the cops. Cops shoot a lot of innocent people, but this sounds like the real thing."

I'm not necessarily against the cops, since information seems to be lacking. I do think they had better have real justification when they unload 50 or so rounds at what were apparently unarmed folk.

Although I understand the need for it, I tend to be sympathetic towards our founding fathers' distrust of a standing army, which some police forces are starting to resemble.

She's very pretty. The daughter is adorable.

As for him, how do you not even try to smile in a photo like that?

Women and their tastes baffle me.

Just like to remind you the scenario you concocted, although very likely to have happened many times, didn't happen this time.

It was an Emenem rap song being played, probably as an undergrand hacked ringtone on a cellphone that sent the undercover cop into paroxysms of agony and stupidity.
