There has to be more to the story? Huh? Even if there is. Huh? I wonder what the video game was? First person shooter? So many questions...

Chef Jim Posted October 14, 2019 Posted October 14, 2019 After unlatching a fence door and walking into the back yard, a white male officer saw Ms. Jefferson, who is black. What does the color of their skin have to do with it? 4

What does the color of their skin have to do with it? Do they commit a disproportionate amount of crime vs. other races? Somebody has to have the numbers on this.

ExiledInIllinois Posted October 14, 2019 Author Posted October 14, 2019 https://www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/atatiana-jefferson-fort-worth-police-shooting-family-speaks-out/ There is always a way around... Especially if you're a cop and feeling scared. Shoot first, then ask questions.
ExiledInIllinois Posted October 14, 2019 Author Posted October 14, 2019 (edited) I wonder if she heard somebody sneaking around back, thought the cop was a bad guy (he never identified himself)... She had her weapon... And you know the rest. Some good that (packing heat in own home) did her, now one is afraid to even have the weapon in their own castle What's stopping a bad guy from identifying themselves as police. Gee... Great. Ain't this swell. Heck, maybe the officier heard them playing video games... Was it a first person shooter? Welcome to 2019 America. What a cluster *****. Moral of story: Don't be a busy body neighbor and if you are... Get your lazy ass up and investigate yourself... Don't call the Keystone Cops: Edited October 14, 2019 by ExiledInIllinois
ALF Posted October 14, 2019 Posted October 14, 2019 If she were playing a video game , she might have had the controller still in her hand. They show police having shoot , don't shoot drills they need those more often. 1

Tiberius Posted October 14, 2019 Posted October 14, 2019 These cops are so terrified about guns they just shoot at anything. Getting rid of guns would make the cops chill out a bit

I am old enough to have been picked up by the cops for goofing off in the 70's and pulled over for various traffic stuff over the next 30 years....back in the day when we were goofing around the cops would drive by flash their lights - let you know to cut it out and move on....when you got pulled over in the 80's the cops were generally friendly about the whole affair - somewhere over the last 25 years the deescalating strategy turned 180 degrees - now even a white dude in his 50's driving a dad car gets a cop in his face for doing 51 in a 35.... The Cop who shot this nice young lady was - I understand - very young - poorly trained, given a gun and a license to kill - or maybe he was trained to do exactly what he did.....

Is it the proliferation of firearms? Now... Everyone has a piece. Notice Keystone Kop Lou Costello above is holding a truncheon, not a .38. Hey... Beating me with a stick is better than plugging me with bullet. But, let's think of the poor civil servant first! They are the most important... More so than the people they serve. Big government gone mad. /smh Edited October 14, 2019 by ExiledInIllinois

I got to watch these sessions while on accounting secondment with the police. for one grizzled detective they gave him the scenario of a drunk homeless man who keeps approaching, despite clear warnings, and breaks a booze bottle and now has a weapon of sharp glass and keeps approaching eventually he hollered “stop right there mofo or you are going to taste all the lead in my gun” much to the amusement of most watching

Nanker Posted October 14, 2019 Posted October 14, 2019 I believe the mentality of the police when they get into an altercation is that they must not lose the fight. If they do, they think they’ll be killed.
