“The reality, though, is that the blame for the death of Sylville Smith lays squarely at his own feet. If he had not responded to the repeated order to drop the gun by raising it to point it at the officer, he would not have created the situation where the officer had to choose between his own life and Smith’s. No one put that gun in his hand. No one forced him to run. No one compelled him to turn and try to take aim at the officer. And no one else is to blame.”


Sums it up nicely.

What ever happened to shooting and arresting looters? Oh, I see. This is merely reparations.
