A Texas sheriff's office released bodycam video nearly a week after deputies allegedly shot a woman, mistaking her for an intruder, after she forgot her keys and broke the glass to get into an apartment.
There are plenty of cases where the police overreact or use excessive force entirely unjustified. There are even more cases when the police get shot at without any rhythm or reason.
There’s a reason they’re trained to open fire in uncertain situations. A split second decision might be the difference between them dying on the job and going back home to their families.
So, don’t create those uncertain situations, unless getting shot is what you’re looking for. If the police are banging on your door, they suspect that something is going on. Best you can do, is help them figure out the situation. The cops, however, are not psychic and don’t know you and your intentions. So, if you have a gun, keep it in your holster or off yourself entirely. Identify yourself. Talk to them. Don’t just walk out on them, gun in hand…
Clearly that’s only reason police exist. No exceptions. They never do anything other than abuse power and shoot people for funzies. Not at all.
As we all know, the world is perfectly black and white. Assigning qualities to groups of people and, then, treating people in those groups as if all of them posses those same qualities is a perfect system with no flaws. AdolfSchmitler would know.
Okay, I officially feel like an idiot now.
This entire thread is like arguing with a dog regarding its barking. No matter how much thought and logic is thrown at it, the dog just wouldn’t shut up, because it doesn’t even comprehend what “an argument”, “logic” and “reason” are.
Same here. You use logic and explain that the world is not perfectly black and white, in returns they yell “acab” just because they “feel” like it.
You’re out here defending cops that shot a person dead in their own home. You’re victim blaming by saying the victim shouldn’t be legally carrying their firearm in their house. You should feel like an idiot, it just shouldn’t have taken until now.
A person who grabbed a gun after the police knocked on the door and announced themselves.
Treat a firearm like you’d tread your dick. You keep the latter in your pants and the former in your holster. It’s not illegal to hold your dick in your hand while your at home, but if you answer your while doing so, chances are, you’re getting charged with indecent exposure. Makes sense, right?
Similarly, it’s perfectly legal to carry or even flail around a gun while you’re in your own home. But it can very easily turn into brandishing if you’d go to answer the door with one in hand. So here’s a crazy idea: how about you don’t? Particularly when you’re answering the door to police, of all things, who you know are armed.
How about the cops don’t murder people who aren’t violating anything in their house? If they can’t handle the pressure of talking to someone with a weapon, they shouldn’t be cops. These two are worthless excuses for human trash.
You keep victim blaming. Everything they did was legal and should be expected as a possibility by the cops. Here’s a hypothetical, what if a bad guy knocks on the door and claims to be the cops? The whole fucking point of the second amendment is to protect one’s self. You act like someone couldn’t pretend to be the police, or that the police have some extra special privilege that supercedes the freedoms of the people. Those to should rot for the rest of their miserable lives, but because the system is so fucked, they’ll get lauded and probably promoted.
Yeah so the next time you get pulled over remember to reach for your registration real slow. Wouldn’t want to make any uncertain situations by reaching for your glove box too fast. They aren’t psychic after all you could have a revolver in there. Your family will take great solace in knowing that the internal investigation didn’t find any wrong doing.

They signed up to abuse power and be bullies not put their life on the line to protect people.

Your “logic” and “reason” are trash and you are mad people are telling you as much. Dehumanizing people you disagree with too, not a good look for you
Being lectured for supposedly “dehumanizing people” by people who yell that “all cops are bastards”…
Maybe look in a mirror once in a while?
