It's becoming more, and more common for cops to just shoot someone to death than it is for them to THINK. A 15 year old autistic kid was throwing a tantrum, so his father calls the cops, for what reason, only he can justify. So, the cops show up, by now the kid has a BUTTER knife maybe because he was having toast, or maybe he didn't have a clue what he was doing, who knows? We all know the rest of the story, the kid "lunged" at officers with a butcher knife, swinging frantically, the officers had no choice but to empty their clips into the boy. Actually, the kid did cut one of the cops through his shirt sleeve. And so as the kid takes a swipe at the cop, the cop isn't trained to disarm a knife wielding  kid without splattering his brains all over the basement? The spokesman for the cops said, "the lead officer didn't have a taser", what he didn't say was the other officer did. Have you noticed lately that the only murders we hear about on the news, are done by cops? And they seem to go for the mentally disabled. Police have become a public danger. We have a better chance of getting killed by a cop, than finding a job in America. Now the government is bringing in the military to help the cops kill American's. Or to arrest and detain, and torture them. Your not even safe in your own home, especially there. Because when the cops get the wrong house, which happens quite often, your entire family is in jeopardy. And if one of them happen to be holding a butter knife at the time, at least one cop will be getting a paid vacation.
