    Its funny that you dont realize that your thoughts and opinions are extreme as mine. Yet they are yours so you dont see them as wrong.

    Im a Nazi, you're a whatever the fuck you wanna call yourself.

    Let that be.

    Any being who exactly? The complete fucks who shot the cops or everybody who protested and did nothing? Judging from your turn back the clock comment you mean everybody regardless of their involvement should just be beaten, and or killed. Your anger, while justified to a point, is exactly what you are pinning to the other side. All cops aren't corrupt, and they aren't. Just like everybody you don't like, for whatever reasons, aren't 'animals'. At this point I give up on reasonable discourse with you so I won't reply to any more to your posts. It's become crystal clear where you are coming from. More innocents killed tonight as part of an issue that shouldn't be at all.


    edit. that was for whip not 'not'.

    apparently it isn't over. Officer just told a reporter that if he wants to stay in the area its on him because the gunman can pick him off if he sees them.

    Its an anti-cop rally. The people attending should be given free reign to do whatever they want (obviously atleast 1 person already did that, and if you dont think there was more then you are mistaken). But they should also be given no protection against whatever brutality they think the police are capable of.

    Years ago this stuff didnt happen , for a reason. People knew their place. Now they dont and its out of hand.

    a 3-day suspension should give you some time to calm down...

    So you're suggesting Martial Law at rallies? That'll go over real well in this society.

    This isn't communist china and we all have this wonderful thing called free speech. Are you saying that we should just revoke those rights for everybody unless they act and think a certain way? It certainly sounds like you are headed that way... How far you want to go back buddy? Am I going to still free when you hit that switch on the way back machine?

    Here's the problem with this situation. Even if the cop thinks he's going for the gun, until he actually has a gun in hand and is in motion towards him not a threat or danger yet. Even if he has his hand on the gun, he's likely not a threat or danger in an awkward seated position while the cop is in a more ideal offensive and defensive position. It's hard to imagine any scenario in which it is justified to shoot someone who hasn't made any threatening move. He over reacted and cops don't get the luxury to over react out of precaution to save themselves.

    In all areas of life the more responsibility you have the greater standard of care is expected of you. And any failure of care should result in stiff penalties; that's the downside to the high responsibility job you asked for. That's why the Hillary Clinton issue is offensive; at her level the repercussions of negligence are just as dangerous as intent; her indifference to be careful should be penalized harshly.

    Same with cops. Cops have a tremendous amount of authority and power; as a result they don't get to err on the side of caution at the expense of other's lives. They get the benefit of the authority and power and that comes with the risk of being in dangerous situations.

    Reaching for something doesn't mean you are in danger of that person. You don't get to shoot out of fear; you get to shoot when in danger.

    That's not true... Shot can be fired from the pocket: I will find the video I saw today where a military vet shows it

    they have one of the guys cornered in a building and are negotiating. Should be along the lines of how far do you want this foot up your ass.

    they still have yet to arrest anyone, and it could be more than 2 shooters.
