    A white police officer didn’t shoot a black man who waved a silver gun. That restraint, he says, cost him his job.http://nyti.ms/2r2iIN3

        A police officer showing restraint, emotion and understanding in a stressful & dangerous situation - fired. He should be a #trainer.

        How is the loss of human life this trivial, & why is an officer hesitating to take another's life grounds for termination? Oh.. W.Va..

        Sounds like they want SOP to be shoot first then sort out the paper work later.

        Mader is a hero. He is an officer precincts should be on their knees begging to employ him! PROTECT AND SERVE is what used to be THE CODE.

        Why can your tweet not just say "police officer didn't shoot a man who waved a silver gun". What's colour got to do with it?

        The notion that police protocol calls for lethal action regardless of officer’s judgements; shows just how skewed law enforsement has become

        It suggest that Officers are trained, and told.. to shoot first, and maybe..even more so if the person is coloured. YOU OFFICERS, ITS MURDER

        I read no long ago, 1 city changed police protocol 2 allow warning shots & wounding suspects, w/ excellent outcomes. It's honestly fucked up

        Figures that in these times someone that shows restraint of emotion and fear is penalized.. feel badly for that officer. Integrity bias.
