I read the entire article. This was a really sad incident. I don't think the Officer in this case was gun totting lunatic, but I do think he had no business being a police officer because his nerves are too frayed.
It's a shame. A lot of Somali families that I know are very close knit. One family lost a son, the other a wife. They really need better training and vetting.
"Damond was one of at least 971 people fatally shot by a U.S. police officer in 2017, according to a Washington Post database."
Wtf man. 971, as far as we know. That's not law enforcement, that's war....
"Number of murders and non-negligent manslaughters in the U.S. in 2016: 17,250."
.......How does that stack up to other industrialized Western nations? Seems ridiculously high.

Exactly, there's nothing to suggest racism or bigotry played a part here, the guy's an idiot and should never have been given a gun and badge. F*ck him though, he still murdered someone.
