You cannot expect a cop to wait until fired upon before responding

Probably not in every circumstance, but I look at it like we look at war. Generally we must be fired upon first before we as a nation respond.

We are not going to survive as a law abiding nation, if death by cop continues as it is today. How long are people of color going to stand by regardless of right or wrong and see their folks gunned down by poeleece.

Police procedure must change to avoid at all cost, the face to face confrontations that lead to fatal consequences. The idea that as a public servant you have a greater right to return home after work than the one you just shot, is one of the ideas that need to go.

Those who are armed by we the people have a greater responsibility to those they serve, than the law breaker does, and all are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. Law enforcement is not judge and jury.

You have the same mind set as the crazies who made TOE for our soldiers in Afghanistan and Iraq

Yes we are at war. The troops are already on the ground battling.

Cops are shooting blacks and whites, it’s a point black and white should be in agreement on, but BLM and these protesters ignore white deaths, they only want to talk about the colords.

As any combat-experienced soldier or marine will tell you, that absurd PC ROE directive has been responsible for many seriously wounded and dead coalition forces.
