exactly. if trained killers can be expected to do everything else before shooting a civilian,and fire a warning shot, and try for disabling shots when they do open fire, why shouldn't police be able to do the same?
nice edit.

Seriously, they never shot anyone. In a war.

that's bullshit, zimmerman was one of many hundreds if not thousands of cases each year in which an civilian shoots an unarmed civilian, it's not plastered all over the news in most instances, the few that make it are the ones in which the media is pushing the anti gun agenda and when they're trying to push the race agenda. it's all about creating the drama that keeps people clicking the links, that's how they're making money. news papers are all but gone and more of these media outlets are moving to pay content to increase the cashflow

just because you dont want to believe they are being held accountable doesnt mean you're right, the majority of shootings by cops are justified, sure there are some that are questionable but you and I dont see what the investigators, prosecutors, grand juries, juries and judges see, we have to rely on what the media is telling us, we have to rely on the likes of shroomism and koods to tell us that the cops are evil pieces of shit that murder everyone with impunity
Bullshit, there are plenty of news reports describing what prosecutors see... They see pressure from the police not to investigate thoroughly, not to question the actions and not to prosecute. When cops don't cooperate, prosecutor's cases fall apart.

What it comes down to is there is a better way to do policing. Somebody needs to start making it happen.

you plan on standing around with your thumb up your ass? Sheriff is an elected position AND you get to call the shots, just think how many lives you could save by telling cops not to carry guns when they serve warrants. marshmallows and cotton balls are the only weapons at their disposal. no more drug raids

he's talking about "local nationals" not "enemy combatants" (civilians, not soldiers) the real point here is that warning shots work

warning shots aren't aimed at the suspect... i'm having trouble finding an account of officer wilson firing a warning shot of any kind, so maybe you could help me out with a source on that?

a shot to the hand is a pretty serious warning, sent him packing until he changed his mind and started charging at the cop

Pris: I never said they weren't justified
If some nog assaulted me and then ran away and i dumped a magazine in his back from 30 feet away I'd be doing multiple life sentences for a hate crime
Or a more common circumstance for police shootings where a car is heading towards a cop (at a relatively low speed) and the cop dumps a mag into the driver instead of getting out of the way

That's not a "common circumstance" for police shootings. If someone is trying to inflict bodily harm with their vehicle, what do you think should be done? I'm not saying firing a gun is the right response, but in some circumstances it would be justified.

I am not disagreeing with that. I am just saying that police get a away with a lot of stuff that would not be considered justifyable force for a regular person. I think those types of shootings are relatively common. Definitely morose than getting shot in the back.
It's also not uncommon for unarmed people to get shot... good luck explaining that to a jury unless the guy was giving you a serious beating.
Police get away with shit I'd be facing a manslaughter or murder charge for all the fucking time.

Yeah, yet somehow here in the US the death toll rises twice as fast.
I just read that NYC has paid out over a billion dollars for police misconduct lawsuits in the past five years. How anyone can sit back and not believe this is a crisis?
