Explain Something To Me!!!

Well, they dont have the right to shoot him armed or not or for the fact that he has killed 3 people. There are things like rules of engagement that must be followed, no matter how mad the officer behind the trigger is. You cant simply kill someone because they killed someone else, there are guidelines.

Actually, that's incorrect. "Rules of Engagement" is a military term and PD don't have it unless it's a SWAT situation. They have by now been briefed that the guy is armed and dangerous and therefore he will be dealt with in a felony situation. If he even accidentally sneezes, he's gonna get shot. And honestly, like I said before he would be getting what he deserves after what he did.

Do I think it is beyond officers being racist. Hell no. Ive been reffered to as a nigger by cops in SC and a spic/burrito boy/mexican with his own island/mu chat to/black mexican by multiple members of the DeKalb county police department, CID, SWAT, FBI, and DEA. [Dont you love being black and spanish!] There are things that the general public never hears.

I don't know you, so don't take this personally.....I'm a lot older than you and been around the block a time or two. I've thrown rocks in my day. I've never been put in a situation w/o merit. I screwed up, so I have to suck it up and man up. If you've been put in a situation where you were wrongly accused, you should take care of that civilly.

Hey, I konw the race card is pulled way too much too, but people seem to thick it never happens. If someone comes in to a hosue to serve an arrrest warrant and the guy is hiding and a cop says "His black ass is right over there in the closet" dont you think the bystanders seem to wonder if him being tossed to the ground with a knee in his back is neccessary?

Actually, yes it is. Police procedure has rules that state how and how hard they should subdue a suspect. Number 1, if they're coming to his house, there is a reason. Number 2, if he's hiding, he's hiding for a reason. So, why should police take it easy on him? Unless they knocked down the wrong door, which if he hid in the closet shows it wasn't, then they can control you by putting their knee in your back while cuffing you. If they keep it there for 30 mins or billie club you while cuffed, that's different. If he finds you hiding in a closet, YOU put yourself in that spot and situation. Take it like a man.

Situations like the one you describe have cost plenty of officer's their lives when that guy that doesn't want to go to jail comes flying out of the closet with a weapon. Then people would cry and say "why didn't they take him down right away???". Get my point?
