I remember when shooting a suspect was a last resort and not the first or second one.
Me too, and shooting someone in the back was only something you saw in the movies. Dirty rotten Nazis would shoot Allied POWs, and then say they were "shot trying to escape."
Now they take out the dog, the cat, the goldfish, the potted plant, all four tires, and anyone who looked suspicious- and just shrug and say they felt threatened. Whereas if a homeowner shoots someone who broke into his house, raped his wife, stole his life savings and kidnapped his child, the cops are measuring how hard the door was kicked in so that they can determine if the threat really was enough to fire a weapon - and you better have a registered permit for every firearm and by the way, they want your computers too, for "investigation." And you better not be armed when they show up at your house, or you're dead.
It's not the cops - it's the IMBALANCE. What all the bootlickers are trying to hide isn't the killings, but the loss of due process, and the treating of absolutely everyone as a potentially murderous felon under all conditions. And since more whites are killed than blacks by cops, it has NOTHING to do with race. BLM exists to turn a due process issue into a race issue - THAT is their big lie.
It's so crazy that the shills attack even when the police superintendent agrees things went too far!
I remember when it wasn't necessary because the suspect didn't run.
