This kinda stuff is only going to get worse if they don't start holding police responsible for their mistakes.

MMO-Champ the place where calling out trolls get you into more trouble than trolling.
Video below.
I completely agree with you, in terms of how to deal with the police. Just want to share the video because it is really easy to imagine any person getting shot in this scenario (believe the victim was also drunk, which adds to the difficulty): https://reason.com/2017/12/08/arizon...illing-man-cr/

To me it seems fair to assume that if there were more consequences, they might feel more pressure to think their actions through more fully. It's not to say that they are psychopaths who are gleefully trying to get away with murder - just that anyone can be lazy if their fuckups cost them nothing.
Being a country of guns for safety seems like it makes everyone be on edge at all times instead.
Yeah, completely agreed on how to handle it - don't play simon sez with the police. I can kind of understand why he got shot when he reached down to pull his pants up, what I don't understand is everything leading up to that moment. How do you crawl toward someone with your hands in the air and legs crossed behind you? It's confusing as hell. The guy's drunk mind was processing too much information at once and when his pants slipped he unthinkingly went to correct it.
Also I should have replied to you, fixing it.

“The biggest communication problem is we do not listen to understand. We listen to reply,” Stephen Covey.
Sure, but that's not the point. The point is that the Police should be trained better so that it isn't necessary. A nervous teenager dealing with being pulled over by the cops for the first time should not be executed because he reached for his wallet.
Also, there was a bit of a typo in my previous statement I've corcceted it now but what it should have always been was
Children should not be trained on how not to get shot by the Police during routine traffic stops.
“The biggest communication problem is we do not listen to understand. We listen to reply,” Stephen Covey.
So then, it's clear we both agree on the source of the problem.
Again to be clear, I'm talking about the situation as it should be...not about how it actually is.
I think Children should be taught that the Police are the people they can always go to for protection...not how they should protect themselves from the police.

Well then get your shit together.
Get it all together. And put it in a backpack. All your shit. So it’s together. And if you gotta take it somewhere, take it somewhere, you know, take it to the shit store and sell it, or put it in a shit museum, I don’t care what you do, you just gotta get it together.
Get your shit together
This will continue to happen until the police change the mindset that everyone must be armed and have fast access to a gun.
He literally shot at the same moment he ended his sentence... why the fuck did he shoot through a damn window? What the fuck do they expect when you are shining lights in a person's house? That they wouldn't check to see what's going on, and if they do that's good enough reason to fire into a person's house? Like did he fucking get spooked since he only shot once? Why was he there, who else was there? He was on the force barely over a year what the fuck?
So officer sneaks around the house, sees someone, doesn't say he's police, gives them an order, and immediately shoots?
Sounds like a god damn retard. How he made it through training/education as a cop is a mystery and points to a lack of decent training for police
Without enshrining the duty to protect and serve the public as the central ethic of the police, they are an official arm of suppression and violence against that public, and should be treated as such by any members of the public they interact with.
They are the public's enemy.
The issue is that most cops now seem to think they are playing real life Counterstrike with God Mode on and use that to throw around their undeserved power on their peers and their betters. The almost limitless power and authority granted to the police is a major problem. They pretty much are the definition of "power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely" because they are given what is basically absolute power.
