That’s always the lib excuse - it’s art.

And they were in fear of their life is the stock police excuse in shootings like this. And all to often the police officer gets away with it.

Police officers who do their dangerous job well are deserving of our praise and support. Those who panic and shoot innocent civilians are not.

“I see little difference in this generic police bashing and Black Lives Matter. Probably the same group of people, even.”

Generic?? The chief of police has allowed the creepy foreigners to be cops knowing they are not properly trained, mentally fit, and have serious violence issues.

That ain’t ‘generic’, it is SYSTEMIC!

Considering that is the defense, this should be an actual sign.

Should be covered when people enter the US. Never approach a cop from their blind side.

Weird response.

Weird how this is now a liberal site with so many people having liberal sensibilities.

The excuse given for the killing was
She startled me
She was on Ambien
What was a white women in her bed clothes doing wandering around

That is from posters on FR, and from the shooter

A sign like this may be one we should have on many intersections and highways. If calling in a suspected rape and going out talk to a cop merits death, then we should warn people.

“Weird how this is now a liberal site with so many people having liberal sensibilities.”

Explain to me what’s “liberal” about objecting to law abiding US citizens being shot and killed by police who arbitrarily object to the lawful exercise of the Second Amendment and who can unexpectedlty shoot and kill people?

I’m an ardent conservative and a supporter of the Constitution and I won’t surrender my rights or the rights of my family to someone just because they have a badge.

I have three things I expect from the police:

1. Defend and protect the Constitution you swore to defend and protect.
2. Obey the laws you enforce.
3. Don’t be a dick.

Anyone who can’t do these three simple things should not be a police officer.

Any questions?

Have you let Justine Damond know how you feel?

 

Have you let Officer Miosotis Familia's family know how you feel?

my guess is he simply murdered her.

The loud noise thing was just the only thing they could come up with.

Unless he was the stupidest cop ever, he would not have even had his gun out. From there it just gets stupider and stupider until you realize that no one with walking around sense is that stupid.

He murdered her.

It seems to be quite true based on the Justine, Philandro, and recent dog shootings,Trigger happy mediocre bastards shouldn’t be anywhere near a badge or a gun. Their democrat political overseers are equally criminal.

"...three things expected from the police..."


Exactly. A few years ago I observed a minor fender-bender and telephoned the police.
I advised we needed tow trucks and a squad car. There were no injuries.
I gave my full name, age, and what I was wearing so officers could spot us easier.

I approached officer as he drove up. He lept from his cruiser and yelled, "...GET THE F*KC BACK IN YOUR CAR!..."
Say what? I am the innocent bystander who called this in and stayed as a courtesy. The two other motorists were peacefully exchanging insurance info.
Some police seriously have a few screws loose and need to be examined for fitness. This nutcase Somali officer is a case in point.

Do you know how often people ambush cops? The uniform is a target that they wear all the time they are on duty.

This isn’t police bashing. It’s a commentary on the Somali who was made a cop even though he wasn’t qualified. He was rushed through the process in order to please the lib morons in MN.

It is a damn shame that he got this poor woman. Too bad he didn’t get Noor before he got the other poor woman.
