I'm a black guy and former cop. This guy was wrong and deserved to be sentenced. That lady should still be alive. The problem is that so many others should be guilty, too.

I'm not the judge/jury but based on personal experience, not everyone is cut out for "the job". Yeah, we were trained to survive, yell "stop resisting", and to say "I feared for my life" but there are intangibles that a lot of these cops just don't seem to have. Balls, if you will. Lethal force should be the last resort after you tried talking and even fighting if it comes to it. Sometimes all you can do is react but use the gun LAST.

^ sounds like you were a good cop tbh.


Your right about brutality being a factor too, some places in the US seem pretty "rough" by compairson to what most of europe is like.

The american culture, and people legally owning guns, make being a cop alot harder, than it probably is say over here.
