Re: And so it begins...

If your job is to protect and serve, you shouldn't be walking away just because your feelings got hurt.

The situation escalated out of control, and now a man is dead - shot twice in the back while running away. Yes, he grabbed a Taser, but that's not a lethal weapon - it didn't justify the use of deadly force. They had his license, his car, and his keys - they knew where to find him if they had to. This is exactly the argument for defunding - an unarmed man sleeping in a car and holding up the drive-in line doesn't require police intervention, it requires a professional trained for these types of situations who can deescalate a confrontation. Let the cops do the job they ARE trained for - actual police work.
