quote: ORIGINAL: vincentML quote: ORIGINAL: BamaD quote: ORIGINAL: Yarashii1 You are right. Hindsight makes everything clearer. In real time, she saw no weapon. She was probably justifiably scared. Being scared is understandable but it is not justification for shooting someone. She may have suspected a weapon or a bomb but suspicion does not justify lethal action. You don't have to trust me on this. NONE of the other officers there were so terrified. They were in the exact same situation she was. I could recount the series of events to prove just how out of line her reaction was but if we are going to disregard facts because they are "hindsight" we are still led back to the simple result. She used lethal force when it was not necessary. Fear is not justification. If you cannot judge them on hindsight, how can you judge them? Real time, a professional shot an unarmed civilian. The professional obviously made an understandable mistake. The profession was not held to a standard that most amateurs would be held to. Real-time there was NO immediate threat of serious harm to anyone. Lethal force was not justified. If we, as Americans, now feel that lethal force is justifiable for misdemeanors, I will support that. I am a law and order person. If police can make these mistakes real-time and not be held accountable regardless of hindsight proof, we must admit that we live in a police state. If you, however, believe in law and order, you have to agree that those same laws must apply to those who enforce the law. Cops do not and cannot play by the same rules as the rest of us. For example non officers are not expected to put themselves in harms way. Shelby could have taken cover behind Crutcher's vehicle. Officers are not expected to put themselves in harm's way as you allege, if there are alternatives. And there were alternatives. But she panicked, clearly. Ok vincent. Even if she panicked... what does that have to do with the fact that the guy was black?

And there were alternatives. But she panicked, clearly. Yes, place yourself behind the large 1 ton motor vehicle which kills more Americans each year then fire arms while a belligerent and erratically behaving individual climbs into the driver seat. Nothing could potentially go wrong with that situation right?

It is a lot more then that too - as Cops are expected to safeguard the Public. not only do we ask them to stand in harms way - we ask them to stand in front of the innocent and protect them from harm.

InfoMan wrote this above re: someone on PCP: unpredictable, very powerful, highly violent, and capable of resisting traditional non-lethal devices It made me wonder. What if you had a set of criteria similar to those characteristic listed for someone on PCP. What if you randomly sampled a group of white men and a group of black men. And you tested everyone under the same types of conditons (ie. Different types of stressful situations) And you measure the results on some type of scale. I wonder how black vs. white would compare? Are black men more prone to irradic behavior, for example. Are white men more likely to obey directions? Do blacks try to get away more? Or do whites? Stuff like that. It would be interesting to see if there were any correlations between race and reactions/behaviors.

Yes, There is a procedure which you follow which dictates the escalation of force to be used in a given situation. She kinda skipped over the steps of 'Non-Lethal Force' and went directly to 'Lethal Force'. And while I will admit that she didn't exactly allow for non-lethal options to be employed, I will argue that she didn't jump to that conclusion rashly or unreasonably - which is the conditions required for her to be convicted with Manslaughter. T Fired from the police? Yeah... she didn't follow proper procedure. Lynched for maliciously or intentionally targeting a minority? Not at all.

We don't know what he was after, but we do know he was on PCP so he was more dangerous than a man with a gun. This may well have created a legitimate reasonable doubt. Oh yeah, there are huge questions here... like why she didn't wait for some one to tazer the guy? but ultimately there is enough there to imply that she and the other officers where in imminent danger, which does make the shooting justified. There was? To a hyper-emotional 12 year old girl, maybe. Emotionally, you are not a grown man and never will be, so just STFU on the matter. But apparently the required psychological profile to enter the police academy for the last 20 years or so is that they completely freak out at the slightest sensory input and start firing. The rules have been re-written to accommodate the lower standards for street execution, and the hiring criteria to that end adjusted thuswise.

None of those are threats? how about instead of simply saying 'there is no threat' you try and explain HOW.

Apparently you have firsthand experience as to the effects of PCP. But in fact every post of yours conveys that you unquestionably display effects of serious delusions as from congenital condition. You shouldn't argue so vociferously that you should be shot on site. It doesn't matter whether under influence of drugs or not, wacko is wacko. You really need to keep that in mind, seriously.

The PCP in his system does not automatically make him dangerous. Where is that written? It simply makes his behavior irrational. Being irrational is not an invitation for blue cap assassination in America. If Shelby was taught how to recognize PCP or any other erratic behavior I would bet she was given protocol on how to deal with it. I doubt she was following that protocol. She lost her composure and needlessly took the life of another human being. Unless of course it is your position that being under the influence of a drug, acting weird from alcohol, or being mentally deranged, all without a weapon, is just cause and license to be shot dead in the street like a rabid dog. Is that your position, mister? Hey???

If he did, then there might be justification for shooting. If he could get the car started and drive straight. Shit, he couldn't even walk straight. And exploding car? Really? Where did that come from? From what part of your disoriented imagination? You lost a lot of credibility with that overreach.
