I have often thought police are more jumpy in this decade because so many people are now armed. Police overreact and innocent people lose their lives. Not excusing police who kill suspects. But I believe it is a factor. So frustrating we can’t get guns out of so many hands.

And so are arrests. A lot, all over. Funny how that works, the cops stop arresting criminals and like magic they shoot fewer of them. Too bad the criminals don’t play by the same rules, homicides up big everywhere and all.

So what's your bottom line point here

The drive to curtail police use of force including deadly shootings has had the unintended effect nationwide of slowing down arrests, thus igniting the crime wave we are seeing. The police are reluctant to engage and the criminals know it.

So you believe police should shoot more of us?

More of us? As in criminals? If criminals elect to fight the police they run the risk of getting shot. How we’ve lost sight of this elementary fact behind all these so called justice reforms is a mystery

Seriously? Time to climb down that ivory tower and take a walk around town. You will be able to define criminal all by yourself

Like I never experienced a crime before! I object to your wide and generalized references to “criminals” as a justification for police overreaction and murder.

Well you object, that settles it then. Good grief
