It has passed the Senate and was submitted for consideration by the House three weeks ago and has not moved. There are still about 4 weeks left in the session.

“The” raise? Counting chickens before....... ?

Did they the same when 12 Republicans voted with the Dems last week to overturn Trump’s emergency order? I you think that the GOP votes together or does spit out different opinions then you aren’t paying attention. When was the last time a Democrat broke ranks when it wasn’t beneficial to that candidate for an upcoming election. Even in forums conservatives and Republicans in general often criticize their own members and Trump.

Anyone that supports the Dems and calls someone a sheep.... probably thinks that he is looking at a photo but is actually looking in a mirror. That is the most lock-step no self thinking group that I have ever seen.

AAAND.... the toxicology is in (or made public). The guy had a potential lethal dose of PCP in him.

STOP IT!! Logical thinking not allowed. It kills the conversation.

Thank you I have seen some fairly horrific crime scenes. Dismemberments, amputation, unimaginable wounds, etc. This one would likely have been the worst due to age. I have talked to someone while he was holding his intestines in his hands and crying that he was going to die (but didn’t), I spoke with a guy whose brains were protruding out of his head before he died, I have seen a man trying to talk after he tried to commit suicide with a shotgun but was only successful in amputating his entire face and couldn’t talk because he had no lower jaw and his tongue was on his chest, I have been inside houses with multiple stabbing death and seen more than my share of dead children. The police obviously aren’t the only ones terrible sights. Fire, EMS, some medical professionals and certain members of the military are a few that might have seen things that humans shouldn’t have to witness. Even other first responders however don’t always see what the police see when it is bad enough that the others simply aren’t needed. It is too late for lifesaving and only an investigation. I could go on.... for days.... but yes we carry a lot with us. Like other professions you just learn to deal with it and move on. I suspect that some don’t which causes a higher than normal suicide rate. Off hand I can think of 8 officers that I have worked with or knew from other agencies that have committed suicide. But it is something we voluntarily do. An overwhelming majority do so with courage to move forward into bad situations with fear but resolve to do the right thing for the right reasons. Unfortunately a few choose a different course and drag the rest of us down with them.

But since no local police department that I have ever heard of furnishes their officers with bean bag..... In reality it doesn’t matter anyway. A lone officer does use likely non lethal force to stop a lethal threat.

Like the video, I will be glad when the final autopsy including toxicology is finished and made public.

This is over except for the obligatory lawsuit. I am fairly certain that it will be settled out of court as no plaintiff attorney will likely want to show the entire idea to a jury and ask if the officer was justified or if it was wrongful death. I have never killed anyone but my partner killed a guy about 10 feet in front of me.

After reading hundreds of comments on Facebook I sometimes wonder, are we even watching the same video? How far can someone go to make excuses? This should have been one of the easiest and most clear examples of law enforcement use of deadly force. Some people will still try to find some reason to show that the officer did the wrong thing, no matter how nonsensical. I don’t care if the guy committed no crime. Let’s say that they were both on the sidewalk facing each other. If someone comes at me with a bladed instrument at the ready and Imorder him at gunpoint to put it down for my safety, it doesn’t matter what law he may have broken or what his intent was. I would completely expect the same thing from a civilian in the same place as the officer.
