Chicago cop suing victims family

[Ban my account ffs!]

The treatment this cop has received has been disgusting.  His full name, photo, and home address have all been published in the newspapers.  His life has been legitimately put at risk.  The reckless and criminal actions of this family are what led to this tragedy occurring, and they should pay for it.

My God you're a dick.

When someone swings a baseball bat at you and is trying to kill you, you shoot them.  Rialmo hasn't been arrested and has done nothing wrong.

So if a cop points a gun at me, I can shoot the cop?

Green Line how much of a weak-ass loser do you have to be to feel so threatened that you shoot somebody for swinging a baseball bat at you?

Have a grown man hit you with a baseball bat multiple times and then get back to me on how you're doing, ok?

Why is the officer standing still and letting the man hit him? Why is he not stepping back, avoiding him, and tazing him?

Because the cop has murderous intent and the power of the government behind him.

"Murderous intent?"  I doubt Rialmo woke up that day and planned on killing a 17 year old.  Every officer just wants to go home safe at the end of the day, and they're not going to risk that by playing paddy cake with a guy swinging a lethal weapon at him.  That's murderous intent.  Tasers are not guaranteed to stop a man.

If the stresses of moving out of the way of a baseball bat and using non-lethal force to stop the wielder are too much, you probably shouldn't be a police officer or anywhere near a job requiring higher cognitive functioning.

Exactly.

But we have to remember, guys. His life was on the line. This was totally a life or death situation. This guy has an entire baseball bat, which as we all know is totally equally as deadly as your standard-issue police pistol.

Ok. Next time he'll pull down his pants and spread his pants for him, right?

Some people are into that.
