        The police chief in the Minneapolis suburb of Brooklyn Center also resigned. Police Chief Tim Gannon said he believed officer Kim Potter mistakenly grabbed her gun instead of her Taser before fatally shooting Daunte Wright during a traffic stop.http://apne.ws/avPzAFL

        Capitalizing "white" and "black" is really weird.

        White is the beginning of the sentence. Black is almost always capitalized.

        Protects her pension by resigning instead of being fired for cause. Such a predictable outcome. Disgusting.

        They’re separate issues. One is employment. The other is criminal. If she resigns/retires before being fired for cause her pension is protected. Different unions have different rules but this is pretty standard. This is y you almost ALWAYS see police resigning after these events

        How did she even become a cop when she cant tell the difference between an 8 ounce bright yellow tazer and a black 2 pound pistol?

        I think that with her it was just an instinctive motion to undo the safety and fire. She messed up when she grabbed the wrong one, but from that point on it was all instinct
