Chalk another innocent's death up to the idiotic War On Drugs.

How much more blood has to flow through the streets before common sense prevails and we end this stupidity?

"According to an article in the Atlanta Journal Constitution, the family were first told that he died in an automobile accident. After that, they were told that he had been shot. It was only later on that it was revealed to the family that it was an officer-related (aka 'isolated incident') shooting.


And this is yet another instance of a bunch of rat bastard pigs trying to cover there buts rather than come clean and deal with the facts. Absolutely no compassion for the innocent man they gunned down...they think of themselves first. I'll bet the ONLY reason they changed their tune was because of the video. I respect good cops, but those involved in this deserve nothing but condemnation. There's simply no defense for their behavior before or after the shooting.

Yeah, when I watched the video I can’t see any reason whatsoever why the cops didn’t just jump in their SUV and follow the man home to question him. They had no reason to shoot him. I would bet that the training these police officers received was sub-standard and they weren’t properly trained in how to handle this kind of situation. They had no reason to use deadly force in this incident.
