Being a cop is a weird job. They can’t say the obvious thing, like “looks like the prick finally went to far.” But people still want commentary, so they have to use neutral cop speak and say things like, “the escalation of the ongoing situation resulted in the issuing of several projectiles at a high rate of speed that resulted in the expiration of one of the subjects of interest in this situation.” And then they turn away from the mic and mutter “and good riddance, too.”

LOL... that’s like being a teacher. You cannot tell a parent, “Your child is lazy, dumb, and spoiled.” You have to say, “Francisco is having difficulties remaining focused for sustained periods of time. This is a skill that he needs to develop, but I’m worried about his motivation because he has specific challenges in the area of audio-visual processing and self-expression.”
