again and again. and these terrorists are only gonna get worse umder a trump administration

Calling "cops" terrorists isn't going to help the situation, either. Not all of them are bad. That talk is what got Trump elected. You don't demonize a group and expect them to consider your reforms.

He had a gun on him, he was acting weird and not obeying orders, there was no way they were going to get a murder charge to stick to the cop.

Like in most of these, I don't know if he should have been shot or not, but I know what would have made him NOT get shot.

"Cops" in scare quotes? Huh?

Dear cops:

If possible, approach armed citizens from a great distance. That is standard protocol.

Thanks,

"This is what got Trump elected" is going to be the #1 phrase used to tell liberals to shut up from now on. I'm already sick of it.
