Spokeswoman Gonzales not say how many of those officers fired their weapons, give their names or say how long they had been with the department.

The important is that the only people worth considering all went home safe.

You don't have to answer your phone, and you don't have to answer knocks on your door.

Train yourself.

File criminal charges against every one of the cops.

Don’t wait for the States Attorney.

Victim declined comment. Odd things occur in the 4 corners area. 😳

“Wrong” is not an excuse. It’s manslaughter.

If not in my contacts, the calls dont get answered. They can leave a message. If my gate is closed and locked, they can’t knock or ring the door bell. And the front cam will pick them up. 😏

I’d really like to see how this went down.

If I answered the door, gun or no gun and when I opened it the cops outside reached for their holsters I’m pretty sure I’d dive away as soon as I saw the going for it. Did they have their guns out?

I’m also pretty sure that if I answered the door with a gun no one would see it until I wanted them to. Showing a gun around cops even fifty years ago could be a pretty dicey thing.

The first thing: the Police Chief and the officers involved must resign.

They have forfeited their privilege to carry a badge and a gun.

The officers involved may be good people, but a killing like this is not repairable.

The former officers can get jobs doing something that does not put others at risk.

Qualified immunity - the cops can’t be touched criminally or civilly. Two tiered “justice” at its finest.

“Did they have their guns out?”

You can bet on it... And you can also bet they did not identify themselves as LE or this would have never happened.

I don’t think it would have gone better for him if they kicked the door in.
