I think the use of deadly force by law enforcement is a real contemporary issue that needs to be addressed immediately. Does anyone else remember the Police shooting up innocent people during the whole Christopher Dorner Manhunt? They shot up a truck occupied by two innocent women who were delivering newspapers because it fit the description of the vehicle he was last seen in. Luckily those shots weren't lethal, but they certainly could have been and were intended to be. There needs to be a referendum on the training standards, the rules of engagement, video surveillance equipment, and when lethal force by an officer will be deemed a homicide. There needs to be clear lines drawn. As it stands now we have the police killing people and then cobbling together justifications for the use of deadly force when other alternatives are certainly available to them. Their gun should not be option #1. Also, Cops should ALWAYS be in pairs.

stop copying me *****

You are the most adorable little contrarian.

I made it cool.

Killer Mike of all people pointed out that there's been no evidence turned up of powder/muzzle-flash burns on Brown's person, which would be all but unavoidable if he were truly wrestling for the officer's gun when he was shot.

lol

They put him in handcuffs just incase he turns into a zombie.

It's due to police protocols, if they didn't cuff the corpse some Obama-care-loving Liberal would have filed a lawsuit claiming the police neglected to properly protect them.

The narrative I heard was the scuffle occurred in the vehicle, the gun went off and Mike and his friend ran, then the officer exited the vehicle and drew down on Mike who, being 6' 4" and 300 lbs, only got 10 yards away. It's at that point the stories diverge.

The friend and some witnesses say Mike gave up and raised his hands and the Officer simply gunned him down anyway (though the friend lied saying Mike was shot in the back; forensics show the shots came while he faced the officer).

The Police account (and that of another witness who was allegedly caught on tape while off camera) claim that Mike rushed the Officer after initially getting away from the altercation at the vehicle, and being drawn on by the Officer, with the final volleys coming from a distance as Mike ran at the Officer.

In both of these scenarios I think the Officer had an opportunity to use non-lethal force. It was a split second decision, granted, but Officer's spend a lot of time at the shooting range. A knee cap shot is not out of the question. Mike could be in a hospital with a shot out knee and shattered thigh facing a felony assault of an Officer charge, or possibly a pending civil suit against the Police Department for Officer Misconduct, but either way, he'd be alive.

Cop supposedly killed someone, whats new right?

in other news

ISIS

Isreal/Gaza War

Russia invading Ukraine

50,000 or more Illegals crossed the border in the last couple months.

The media has forgot it all..

Stupid

There are news reports on ISIS and Israel/Gaza all the time.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Illegals crossing the border isn't news anymore.

Oh, don't forget about that marine captured in Mexico. Seem the president is trying to forget about this case. lol

I agree, someone should have tasered him. But lets keep in mind that a taser doesn't always work, especially with someone on drugs or mentally ill.
For me all it takes is a hug.

No taser.

It doesn't matter, if you can't subdue someone with a taser and a billy club than you're not using what little muscle and tact God gave a gazelle.

I actually have some compassion for human life, those officers gunned that man down without a second's thought, a human being, gone. I think about how ****ed up that guy's life probably was, and his company probably wasn't always bad, there had to have been times even he's reached out to people he cared about, tried impart wisdom however he could on like a little brother or something.

The impoverished are doubly unfortunate, on one hand they're sort of having to deal with the fact that, while others were given a silver spoon, they've had to struggle in separate, inferior living conditions. On the other hand, they've reached a point where not living a life is preferable to living a subordinate one.

I've been in a position where I've felt like I'm not as much of a human as this person that has more than me, if he wants to stop me from thriving he's going to have to kill me, cause apparently I'm not an equal so death is a preferable alternative to accepting subordination.

I would never kill a weakened and desperate human being for acting as such.

It's pure evil.
