Probably because I specified that the family was African American (because of current distrust between some African Americans and police), but didn't specify in the driver's case.

Thank you my friend and I'm so sorry to hear that your wife has this to I hope things get better for her.

Police do not shoot to maim for several reasons. If you get to the point where a police officer has his gun pulled, the next step is you being dead. They don't shoot your leg out from under you, they don't shoot the weapon out of your hand, they don't fire a warning shot into the air. It's however many rounds into your chest until you stop twitching. Their priority is not taking a violent threat alive, it's making the violent threat no longer a violent threat, for their own safety and the safety of the public they serve. Now, I don't know anything about the case in question, but I think it's probably something we should teach in high school at this point. When a cop draws his weapon you're one screw up away from fourteen rounds in the chest.

After extensive cleaning, multiple stock pots of boiling water; (don't forget you left oil in your deep fryer in the cabinet for god knows how long; oil congeals) I enjoyed a heaping pile of farm raised catfish fillets. The company I work for did a fish fry for a customer and I got the excess fish that wasn't cooked. It was already marinaded and I just coated it in a fry mix and cooked it. Sooooo good. Fish is do delicious. Especially fresh.

Turns out the "2 weeks" announcement was a bit of a ruse. Cause I got the call today: They want me.



It's only two weeks for the "runner up" in case I win the lotto over the weekend and don't want the job anymore. They won't send out rejection notes before I sign the contract.

Yes you can, because in every recent instance I know of, the shooting happened while the suspect was struggling with a cop, fleeing from a cop, trying to harm a cop, driving recklessly and endangering the public, ect. It's never when they're complying and surrendering peacefully. Like DE said, it's not a popular opinion, but it's true. When you disagree with a cop, politely surrender and go to jail. You don't plead your case to a cop, you plead your case to a judge. Doesn't matter if he got the wrong guy. That's something they decide in court. If he's set on arresting you, nothing you do is going to improve the situation. If for whatever reason things escalate and a cop draws his weapon, the time for screwing around has ended, and you have two choices, surrender or die. If they somehow apprehend you at that point without killing you, consider yourself lucky. And of course, don't ever lay your hands on a cop or resist arrest. If people knew the severity of these actions we'd see a whole lot less police shootings. They're fearless. A cop draws his gun and they're still acting like assholes. They don't think the cop will shoot. They don't think the cop is allowed to shoot. They're wrong. That's good info to know. And regardless of if you thought the police were right or wrong, not a single one of them is in jail while all those people they shot are dead. So stay alive and file a civil suit later if you think your rights have been infringed upon. Sites like copblock have people misinformed on what their rights are and they're acting like morons and are going to get themselves shot because they refused to roll down a window. Now, I'm not saying all those shootings were warranted, but not a single one of them was unexpected. When you're leading police on a high speed chase, expect it to end in a hail of gunfire. If you decide to fight with a cop, you had better kill him otherwise he's probably going to kill you. It's just the way it is.

They aren't dealing with an armed population.
