I find it simple:
Was the person shot the person the cops were chasing?
if not, murder.
There should be NO excuses or mitigating circumstances in ANY shooting: shoot the wrong person, for whatever reason, in any situation, and you should either hang or go to jail for life. I
Idaho State Police audio recording shows misunderstanding right off the bat:
“Idaho?”
“Yes, you da ho.”
nowadays some police officers appear to be as muscular as possible...
roid rage could be an attributing factor in some of these incidents...
drug testing all officers seems appropriate and mandatory to correct these problems...
And what was the charge they were after the bad guy for? Didn’t see that.
“There are no words to express how heavy our hearts are today,ā Johnson said...”
Oh hell, no harm no foul...well maybe a little bit of harm.
The moral of the story is if there are cops wandering around with their guns out HIDE!
There was no charge. He ran away from a traffic stop.
He probably has a gun....now.š
“We do not currently have the answers as to what exactly occurred during these moments,ā
Sure we do...one of your morons killed an innocent man.
Bang bang bang.
Don’t move!!”
“Get down on the ground!!!”
There I fixed it for you.šµ
Every one slow down and think about it.
You are in your home. Cops and robbers running all over the place.
Why would you go outside? You heard a noise or saw a shadow in your back yard?
Dumb reason to go out.
First, in almost every state in the union (Texas being the only one I am aware of that differs) will enforce in court the theory that so long as you stay in your house and the bad guy is outside the house, you are safe.
There are many cases of record where homeowners have gone to prison for shooting someone who was on their front porch banging on their door.
So you want to play hero and go outside and trap the bad guy, but he fights back and you have to shoot him....You are now going to go through hell in the court system.
Smart people stay inside, armed.
If it was a regular citizen, would there be any charges? The last time I checked, the use of weapons by Police is supposed to be for Self Defense
Well, this is my rifle, this is my gun. But I would not want to drop my gun.
There is not the slightest evidence this man even knew there were police around, or doing anything other than being i his own yard. And for that you throw all that at him?
Because they aren’t our masters, they are our servants. there simply isn’t any legitimate excuse for a cop to shoot an innocent citizen.
Why do some people insist on glorifying and kowtowing to thugs with badges?
I godamned well have a right to step outside in my yard, armed or not. And kill any son of a bitch, with our without a badge, who thinks I shouldn’t.
Hopefully, the commie left is blaming this shooting on Hop Sing Xiden’s psychobabble. Trump is gone, can’t blame him.
Does this mean all us White Supremacists get to Burn, Loot and Murder without being Arrested and Charged?
Iām thinking it may be a case where the guy fired at the police 1st not knowing who they were or what was going on.
drug testing all officers seems appropriate and mandatory to correct these problems...
= = =
Nope, Union protection, and ‘personnel privacy.’
Of course you have a right to step out in your back yard, armed or not.
But smart people know when it is appropriate to exercise their rights.
