If he was just adjusting his belt, don't you think shooting the cop in the head was somewhat of an extreme reaction? If it were the other way around and the cop had shot the guy, it would be non-stop news and Rev. Al would have rushed back from Baltimore to lead the demonstrations. I'm thinking there may be a double standard here.Why did the officer approach this guy and seize him unreasonably? Adjusting one's waistband suspiciously is not reasonable suspicion for a terry stop. The officers are supposed to at least throw in the word bulge (as in he was adjusting his waistband and they saw a bulge). It is sort of like how every traffic stop after 11 pm the driver has "red, watery, glassy eyes."
The police officer just died. I'm not sure this is a dopey thread!What a dopey thread.
You have to wonder who exactly will want to go into police work in the near future. Nice combination of dangerous work, being reviled by significant segments of society, and the possibility of being charged with felonies just for trying to do your job.
Couldn't agree with you more, LGB. It's a no win situation for cops. Why would anyone want to put their lives in danger with the hatred police face every day.You have to wonder who exactly will want to go into police work in the near future.
