you're like the guy driving down the road and sees another vehicle heading straight at him....

well he's not supposed to be in my lane...

so he stays there in his proper lane and gets killed by the oncoming vehicle...

people do silly things, and stupid things..

but you can avoid it....

cops shouldn't be in the business of killing people because of that...

are they or are they not TRAINED to protect the citizenry....

you are very wrong on this and I pity our country...

as for that arse who pretended to be Robocop, I hope he suffers a long time for murdering this poor slob...

I would bet he'll be dead himself or will shoot somebody else before its all over....

There is nothing at all analogous to the car scenario and what happened.

I can do something about the car in my lane, I can get out of the lane, honk, flash my lights, etc.

If the cops are there with guns drawn, there is nothing I can reasonably do until the guns are holstered. Anything else is bravado and possibly death by cop.

As for being trained to protect the citizenry, wasn’t there a Supreme Court case stating that they were NOT there to protect the citizens?
