        Simple. The police are frightened by the fact that all Americans have guns and every call out could be their last. They are human.

        If the police cannot function without being trigger happy over the fact that they may be facing an unsub with a gun, then they have no

        The "modern police" often seem to shoot first, ask later.

        It seems to be dangerous to call the police.

        The American police were very impressed by the way Scottish police used humour and communication to disarm knifemen. It works.

        The Australian part isn't relevant. I'm an Aussie and I'd like to know why police shot an innocent civilian?

        Has some relevance. She reported a crime and then did what I as a Brit would do. Wandered over to ask what was going on. Is it cultural.

        Would an have American kept well away knowing how trigger happy US police often seem to be.

        I would have done the same. The question is what is so very wrong with their training that allowed this to happen?

        More to the point. What is it about US that a cop is so spooked by being approached by member of public he pulls his gun and fires.

        No. It just feels like all of America is still at war and the war doesn't exist
