Originally posted by RJH1 View PostSo people should always have to have their front doors closed, and should never carry guns in their house, is that what you're saying? I know some will think I'm out of step on this forum, but I think police should have to clearly identify a threat before firing, crazy right
Yes the officer screwed up,( not identifying himself) Yes there was a gun mentioned in the very first report i heard the morning of this deal and it is extremely tragic. I absolutely believe mistakes were made and that consequences need to be paid but i also dont believe the police should be judged for a micro second decision before they have an opportunity to defend their actions

Or do you go with the, "Woops, my bad, sorry i killed you" defense and we then hand out the "**** happens" acquittal.
Sorry people, actions have consequences. Shooting people for playing video games in a house they have a right to be in is BS, regardless of the shirt you are wearing.
All my statements assume the facts are fairly close to what is being reported, and there has not been some fast and loose editing going on
Sure no one including LEO should murder anyone. But the rush to find and prosecute all these "bad" cops is stupid.

I cannot imagine the grief for the family or the officer.

Originally posted by RJH1 View PostNo, we wouldn't have. Your speculation in different scenarios is just that, speculation and different scenarios.
If he would have walked up to the front door, while using a little caution we would have had no story.
Sure I speculated. You are doing the same. Every single time an officer approaches any call or any public contact... they had better be speculating on what might happen.
If officers don’t continually play “what if”, there will be more dead cops.

White officer, black victim. Front page nation wide. Sad all the way around. An innocent person is dead and a police officer is ruined and may as well be dead.
A few years back an older white gentleman was shot and killed standing in his garage with the door up. Officers responded to the wrong address and killed him. Barley made the news. No officers were charged. https://www.courthousenews.com/panel...illed-by-cops/
Like Willie said "this chit ain't right"

Wasn't it a few years ago that FWPD killed a white home owner in his own garage that was carring a weapon after they approached his house by mistake?
They had received a dispatch and went to the wrong address/street and approached this person with pistols drawn as he worked in his garage he tried to pull his pistol and they shot him. Not much different than this other than the victim here is black. To be honest I do not know what happen to the two police officers that shot him?
It seems the media blows these tragedies out of proportion if it meets the current agenda for sure.
Prayers for this young ladies family!

I got it, leave your door open for a cool breeze while playing video games=shoot in 2019.
And of course you believe popo shouldn't be judged, maybe people with that attitude is why police think shooting first and acquiring information later is justifiable

IDK where the liberal comments come from, i think we should all be held accountable for our actions, regardless of our clothes. If that makes me a liberal well, it would be strange, but OK

First I have heard of this, and it too is some serious BS.
