Sex offender/illegally armed/pedo black man killed by cops

[Master]

Police have a duty to protect themselves, the public and the offender who could be mentally vulnerable and not in control of themselves.

It is a difficult job but they are paid to make these difficult decisions.

Master, the police LEGALLY speaking, have no duty to "protect" anyone other than themselves.

What in the flying FUCK is happening in today's society??

All these goddamm killings... and society is unable/ unwilling to differentiate between one and the other. People... in SOME cases, it's the cop's fault..... in OTHER cases, it's the citizen's fault. Pure and simple. Black Lives Matter advocates would have us think ALL killings by cops are the cops fault.... whereas another sector of society thinks NONE of the killings are the cops fault. It's mind boggling.

Losing track of them by now... seems there's one every month. But still remember that guy (black, of course) that got stopped by the police (white, of course). The guy takes off running, and gets shot 8 times in the back for his troubles. Luckily for us, the whole thing was recorded by some guy's phone. So there we have an obvious case of a complete asshole who should've never been 50 yards from a police uniform, much less a weapon..... killing a guy who's running away from him. Whatever happened to him? Suspension for bad behavior? I lost track.

Then there's the guys who resist arrest, reach for their pockets, do all kinds of crazy shit.... possess criminal records..... THEN.... when they get shot.... they predictably get painted as little saints and all hell breaks loose against the hapless cops. ANOTHER white cop shooting of a black man.

When is all this fucking sickness going to end??
