It's Safe To Kill Anyone If You're A Cop

The number of innocent people killed by cops continues to climb every year. Yet, it seems that fewer of them are being punished or even disciplined for it. An innocent, elderly grandmother is gunned down in her home while trying to defend herself from some gung-ho cops. Apologies? nah, no need for remorse. They were cops doing their jobs. Hey, they thought they were at the right house, so it's not their fault, right?

Today's story - some drunk guys coming home from a bachelor party at a strip club ram their car into an unmarked police minivan. Are the men ordered to exit their vehicle? Do any of the men inside the car pull out a weapon? Are there any shots fired at the police? NO. NO. and NO.

What does happen? Fifty rounds - yes, 50 rounds are fired, 21 hitting the car, killing the groom and injuring 2 others. Now, 2 children will grow up without their father's care, attention, and love. A woman will mourn the loss of her lover - soon to be husband - and become embittered toward the police. A community will further lose trust in the people sworn to protect them. Most likely, a police department will escape public scrutiny and accountability to the people that put food on the tables of the officers from that department. We need to bring an end to this abuse of power NOW. Personally, I would like to see demonstrations in the streets of every city across the United States calling for full accountability from law enforcement. No more blank checks to police departments who want to play Rambo. The sickness has to end, and we have to end it.
