If this mother of several was aware of drugs in the home then she is to blame.
So, just knowing about drugs merits the death penalty administered violently without a judge or jury - just shot by the cops with your child in your arms?
I am utterly without words.
That is not at all what I said there bunny.
What I said was that this mom was not doing her job if she allowed drugs in her home and around all these kids.
But hey, read in to it what ever conclusion you care to jump to.
None of us was there. What happened to cause the police to shoot?
The mother lived, with her children in a home that she knew contained drugs. Did this warant a death penalty? No. I would wager the police did not arrive with the intent to kill.
However, living in that environment carries consequences. Some violent. Lets say it wasnt police. It was a rival gang or some such. The consequences to your children would be just as real and deadly. The mother is to fault for having her children there. Period. Not for being shot, but for being somewhere they should not be.
Ruby Ridge is maybe a precedent here? Mothers holding babies are deemed deadly threats.
