        How, after you are given a description of the homeowner, you shoot him? Another case of someone not qualified to be law enforcement.

        Let alone the fact she told the police that the intruder was naked.

        This same tragic scenario would play out if an armed teacher confronted a school shooter and was then seen by the police.

        Bear in mind that the police responding in Colorado had a complete description of the homeowner provided by his wife, and still shot him. An anonymous armed teacher would likely be seen as a threat.

        Oh no! Good guys with guns failed us? Having more guns in society often only creates more confusion and deaths? Who’d have thunk it?

        He didn't fail. He saved his grandson with his gun. But yeah, only the guys who kill good guys with guns should have all the guns.

        If getting killed by the cops isn't failing I'm not sure what is

        So no one should have guns? You realize that only empowers the people that don't share your values.

        I think there’s a middle ground somewhere. Clearly this guy was using his gun responsibly and the police are undertrained in civility and are trigger happy. This confusion is real though, and it undermines the good guy with a gun argument.

        The real question is if the cops kill an old white veteran unjustly will their be a trial or just some paid leave like they do with black people

        Police are just killing because they know they can get away with it.

        Cops killed another “bystander”. Maybe this is an indication that cops need more training. They seem trigger happy. Just firing weapons Willy Nilly.

        You mean to tell me they couldn't have ordered him to drop his weapon just started shooting there is a lack of training and just reading this someone who really doesn't need to be a cop more training and mental evaluation is needed for police departments
