    Dawg, what? We’re on the same side here. I tried to relay a neutral chain of events, and then linked the actual source so people could watch it for themselves. I don’t know how I could have been more unbiased.

    In no world am I supporting what was clearly an unnecessary 0-100 escalation of force. Your comment seems like a similar escalation of force, ironically.

    I mean shit, there’s no way they’re in range of her heaving that water even if that were her intentions. She would have had to round the corner of her counter just to get within effective water tossing range, he had so much time to assess and not shoot and he shot like she had a gun aimed at him. Shameful cowardice.

      You wrote the earlier comment as if she was in any way threatening.

      She was not. These delulu pos cops just murdered her in cold blood.

      I’ve known stimulant junkies who haven’t slept for days who were less paranoid and jumpy.
