I am emphatically against militarization and aggression of law enforcement

I am right there with you. But I see nothing here to indicate that this was anything other than an out-of-control feral thug who put a police officer in the unenviable position of shoot-or-die. Very few adult males would survive an all-out assault by a 300 pound 18-year old. Given what we know about him, I am inclined to not believe the fanciful tales spun by Gentle's peers and accomplices.

To me, this isn't about the militarization and aggression of law enforcement. It is about the lynch mob mentality of the professionally aggrieved, the mindless hipster-types, and the media.

Forget the feral blacks who looted, burned and rioted, we KNOW they are subhuman!!

But about the cop/man shooting. I want to see that the cop had no other choice, but I just don’t see that at all. Too many times lately, in the last few years, the police have attacked people, black, white, no matter. Killed, beaten, etc. I just am not sure this isn’t another one of those cases. I know my words are not popular here, but I must speak up.
