Any knowledgeable person watching the dash cam and helicopter video, along with the officer's description of the individual failing to follow lawful orders and choosing to turn his back on a drawn weapon to walk back to his vehicle, had to know this guy was chemically enhanced. The local DA has to regret the quick filing of charges against the officer but knows he has to ride this case down to defeat just to avoid BLM nonsense -- take one for the team, if you will.

Quelle surprise. And the maggot that killed the two Palm Springs police officers and wounded a third is...wait for it...black. But of course, he’s just a nutjob, not a racist.

As someone who realizes the police have a tough job and am willing to cut them a break in many circumstances, this isn’t one of them. So what if he was on drugs, mentally ill people act in similar ways. He was unarmed and posed no immediate threat that required that officer to shoot him. It could have easily been handled better. That some are trying to justify this particular shooting boggles my mind.

Four officers on the scene. Four officers saw what was going on. One officer felt that the situation justified killing the man. Were the other three careless?

A drugged out felon with a gun not listening to police orders to stand down - that’s far different that being subjected to police harassment for doing nothing.

Is this the guy that had turned his life around, and was singing at church?

He seems to have taken a turn back.

Some good news for Officer Betty, but not sure it will help her all that much.

Good riddance. The cop did civilization a favor, but society’s death wish, in a handful of deep thinkers, wins again.
