Maybe the South and West side of Ciraq should listen to what Chris Rock had to say about proper behavior when the police come calling.

Watch this video and then tell me if you feel the same about a guy with a knife, even a 3 inch one, not being that much of a threat.

Yeah, I’ve seen that one. It’s a lot older than this year.

The kid in Chicago went down and they kept shooting him. The cops’ job is to bring people into custody to give them a fair trial, not mete out summary execution.

Hilarious. So far in 2016, there have been 18 police shootings, with 6 killed and 12 wounded.

At the same time, there have been 483 gunfire homicides, with 2639 wounded.

Obviously it is the police who are the problem here.

“Why did you shoot him sixteen times, officer?”

“I ran out of ammo, judge.”

Set up a super secret “shoot, shovel, shut up” team.

Wasn't there a movie about that? Star Chamber or some similar name?

Yeah. The problem there was that *nobody* shot him until he’d already killed two of them.

Why did the cop have to shoot the kid after he was down? Sixteen times in 13 seconds. The kid just happened to stop being a “threat” when the cop’s magazine was empty?

Yup. Hal Holbrook.
