Its not murder. It may be incompetence. Thousands of people die every year in the hospitals because of human errors. Way more than human errors by the police. Dont see anyone protesting for doctors to be defunded and prosecuted. Its easy for us to sit in our comfortable chairs and point fingers, but police officers are out there risking their lives each day so we can have that freedom. They make mistakes, but its very rare. |
No its murder, just like a doctor who kills a patient not by a simple accident. Yes, they put their lives at risk because the job calls for it but it does not excuse negligence. Using that as an excuse to accept those accidents is why we are where we are today. Giving the police more deadly ways to kill its citizens is why we are here today instead of better training and non lethal methods to address problems. America culture is shoot first and ask questions later and the way you just fling off these mistakes is why nothing changes. Its why the system protects bad, incompetent cops who should not be on the job and why they go free to go to another city or state and do it all over again. There is definitely more good cops than bad but if the system continues to protect the bad then it will never get the full trust of the people.
Anyway, saying a person got fired compared to another person losing their life as a person not going free seems like you judge a life pretty cheaply. Maybe that is also why in America we still have the same issues crop up all the time. No real importance on life, just other means for finding ways to kill our fellow citizens.
