The killer, Sgt. Burnett, had previously told a law-enforcement magazine that he and fellow officers were trained to shoot quickly and at close range. Burnett had previously put the training to use by shooting and killing an armed suspect in 2008.

Something is drastically wrong with this statement and this person. The only thing right about it is the 'killer' statement. If this were an American soldier in IRAQ or Afghanistan right now, he would be cashiered summarily poste haste.....

“”If this were an American soldier in IRAQ or Afghanistan right now, he would be cashiered summarily poste haste...””

That’s the truth. Look at the trouble Lt. Col. Allen West got into just for firing a shot into the ground next to a captured Iraqi’s (or was it Afghani?) head.

I counted 7 SWAT going into that house - how many more weren’t in the picture? AND shouting “get on the ground”, when the guy has been shot and is already on the floor???

Disgusting.....
