The off-duty LAPD officer reportedly works in the Southwest Division and shot and killed a man during an altercation after feeling threatened.
These words make Internal Affairs feel triggered to exonerate...
I saw another article about a shooter, but at that time they didn’t say who the shooter was.
It is tragic that it turned out to be a policeman.
“self defense”
Did the other guy shoot first?
someone refused to get up from the loveseat for sale.
Prolly depends on whether the deceased was another budding young rocket scientist
4 people were shot, and there is no mention that they were bystanders. So did four guys jump on one?
(I'm generally pro-police, but it had been getting easier and easier to find fault the last several years)
This report says the gunman was taken into custody =>
“One person was killed and two others were injured when a gunman opened fire inside a Costco store in Southern California, authorities said. The suspected gunman was taken into custody and hospitalized. Police have not identified him.”
Since it is Costco, I expect there to be video of the incident. Should go a long way to determine who’s right and who’s wrong.

From the LaTimes:
Witnesses described seeing at least three injured people being taken out of the store, and television footage showed an array of ambulances and law enforcement on scene.
Witnesses said a man with a Mohawk haircut was arguing with a woman with a child inside the store when the shots were fired.
They said last night that the shooter was a white guy with a Mohawk, now its an LAPD officer?
The Rules dont apply yet. Not if you’re the cop anyway.
Because You and/or I would be at least in Holding.

Lookie here.
Cops always justify “feeling threatened” when shooting someone.
Anyone other than an off-duty officer in LA would not likely be allowed to be armed no matter how “threatened” he or she might feel. Getting a carry permit is at the discretion of the county sheriff and many (but not all) California sheriffs decline to grant the permit to unimportant folks like us.
Wow, Black Friday is over five months away. Are they getting an early start down in LA?
Somewhere his high school English teacher is doing a double-facepalm.
To no surprise, the SeeBS reporterette doesn’t provide nearly enough details in her “news” report to understand what actually happened other than a body count.
“but the officer is not currently in custody”
Thin Blue Privilege.
Anyone else would be in jail pending the outcome of the investigation.
