October 7, 201610 yr There would be an investigation, as there should be with all officer involved shootings, and she'd be cleared of any wrong-doing. Yeah, right. And everything all peaceful.
October 7, 201610 yr Before I answer your question, let me me say what might have happened is 100% irrelevant. So...Depends on if there was a video or not. If there was and it was as it's being reported it would be a short-lived story with some protest but not sustained. If there was no video, then you'd have questions/scrutiny and the normal protests. Again, if that thought enters your brain it's time to take retirement. You will get yourself killed and potentially cause bystanders to be killed/injured. I agree she shouldn't be a police officer if she can't handle the job. I just can't believe that's where we are at as a society. I know police have screwed up in some instances but for it to get to the point where they are afraid to enforce the law is quite terrifying.
October 7, 201610 yr Yeah, right. If it's as clear cut as they say, then he's right. If you're questioning that the events happened as they say, there would be warranted speculation.
October 7, 201610 yr I know police have screwed up in some instances but for it to get to the point where they are afraid to enforce the law is quite terrifying. Kinda like how black people are afraid when they are pulled over.

I know police have screwed up in some instances but for it to get to the point where they are afraid to enforce the law is quite terrifying. It's the natural evolution. Before cell phones the bad cops were free to do what they wanted with impunity. Now they cannot do so as easily. You then have the good officers who make bad decisions (possibly the case in Tulsa). The fact they're good officers doesn't absolve them from their deadly bad decision. Officers will do what they've always done if they're good, strong officers. The others will have to be weeded out.
October 7, 201610 yr Kinda like how black people are afraid when they are pulled over. Correct. Unfortunate that the majority on both sides doing what they should be doing are nervous because of a few.
October 7, 201610 yr If it's as clear cut as they say, then he's right. If you're questioning that the events happened as they say, there would be warranted speculation. I am not questioning any thing the officers have said. I do question how the reaction of the neighborhood would have been had she fired her weapon, two officers to one? And yes, if she is afraid to use her weapon, then something in our country is badly wrong. And she is putting herself and others in danger.
October 7, 201610 yr Kinda like how black people are afraid when they are pulled over. And there is nothing that is right about that situation when you are made to fear like that. I'm not saying you are wrong, that has to be resolved now that it has our attention. But law enforcement should not be put in danger. Or makes decisions that put those around them in danger.
October 7, 201610 yr By their own... No. By all those that jump to conclusions without knowing the facts.
