Of course.
But Law enforcement comes in lots of flavors. Most here are great people. Some few have personal issues.
Texas Rangers here have the best overall reputation. Quiet, effective.
Fed Agency police? not so much. Issue of detachment from the community.
No excuses to shoot unarmed noncombatants...
Professionalism is just that... if you can’t do the job because you’re too scared then quit, before another innocent is dead.
These excuses are just absurd. Incidents such as these used as justification for terrified cops shooting unarmed people is pathetic.
We are either a nation of laws where EVERYONE is held to the same legal standards or were Somalia.
They dread domestic dispute calls as much, if not more, than any calls.
Or a result.
