Highly doubt these .@SeattlePD officers were paying attention to anything around that vehicle when they made decision to open fire...
How many of those rounds went into surrounding buildings? I bet if an analysis was done in similar scenarios we would see a pattern...
This is what happens when you militarize a police force, and they spend more time training with weapons than anything else...
Their muscle memory is built to do 1 thing... squeeze the trigger... not think about anything else...
Mil. Police training uses escalation of force ladder bc kinetic force isnt always the best choice...
So you train to think b4 responding. These cops are taught that we are all a threat by blowhard tough guys...http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2017/02/dave-grossman-training-police-militarization/ …
If you are able to open fire after a car "moved in a threatening manner" towards you apparently it wasn't much of a threat.
Its why in these videos the cops make sure to scream over and over again bc in the after action lawyers can pick it apart and say...
Ehhhh, he tried to run the cop over initially. I can see how he feared for his life initially.
they shot into the BACK of the vehicle bro...
That's why I specified "initially".
i know you did. I wouldn't even give those devils that much benefit of the doubt though. They always "fear for their lives"
They do always through out that "reason" even when it isn't justified.
Why does it seem y'all arguing I feel like y'all are on the same side just wording things a bit different. Lol
Balch Springs,Tx Police killed a Teenager shooting into a moving vehicle responding only to a call at a party he Lied
camera told TRUTH
He was charged with Murder and Fired
THEY DON'T NEED ANY ASSAULT RIFLES ON PATROL THATS WHAT SWAT IS FOR
As an active duty military member, who served 4 yrs as an augmentee cop, we were taught to only fire when fired upon. This is senseless
