Thank God I've never heard a noise outside and looked out the window to see what it was!

Why should Dallas have all the fun?
Calling the police (for anything) almost never makes a situation get better.
Round 2 Amber Guyger. Please let this be fake news.
Successful police operation.
1. They responded to the correct address reported by the caller for the welfare check.
2. The police have eliminated any questions whatsoever about the state of the woman’s welfare.
Horrible.
The policeman didn’t see any weapon, because there was no weapon.
The poor woman was inside her own home.
Oh boy. There’s gonna be trouble in them parts.
That cop shot one of fellow Americans. Not cool.
If people are worried about gun violence...they need to start looking at the police departments. In all seriousness, the trend needs to move back towards police being “Peace Officers” and get rid of all their tactical gear.
Watched it.. It was another shoot first sort it out later event.
I live in a far different kind of area but this is one reason I would be very hesitant to call the police to check on the welfare of a neighbor.
Was she eating icecream?
Why didn’t the police simply go to the front door and ring the door bell? Guilty of murder.
...saw a person standing inside the home near a window. “Perceiving a threat, the officer drew his duty weapon and fired one shot striking the person inside the residence,” the statement said.
Just wow. That’s the kind of behavior you would expect of an infantryman trying to neutralize a house occupied by enemy soldiers.
Be interesting to see how they to sweep this one under the rug.
No “hesitation” there, that’s for sure.
Welfare check, status DOA dispatch.

Bad shoot, on video. Throw the book at this cop and throw him under the jail.
Apparently the poor woman didn’t have a dog for the officer to shoot.
The problem is that even with a “good” shoot, and a black person is shot, there will be riots. Or I am too pessimistic.
