        Of course that what’s they are going to say. What else is left??? They stormed in, guns blazing, killed an innocent man. Why do we make them come up with cover stories? Nothing ever comes of these murders.

        How can you say that? In your initial story you quoted the son saying the police never shouted any orders. His claim was they just shot without warning, you printed it. Which is it? At least let us know this is the police version rather than stating it as fact.

        I don’t suppose anyone will be protesting this shooting.

        I didn't mean I thought he should shoot him. What I meant was the man was in shock. The police are too quick to shoot.

        Yes, he broke in HIS home and pulled his 11 year old grandson out of his room and was raping the kid in the bathroom. Now, you tell me, if you had someone break in your home and raped your kid you wouldn't be in shock? It wasn't 15 minutes, it was 15 seconds. PD shot too fast.

        Was it that he was in shock, a hearing problem, or him not dropping the gun.

        Didn't have to kill him. Just my opinion, you have yours.
