You are correct. Whenever you take a group of any people: Whether it is cops,feds, judges, doctors, lawyers, politicians (ok lets exclude politicians) you are going to have the good, the bad and the ugly. People are human no matter what title you give them. Humans can be lazy, stupid, evil just as they can be hardworking, smart and good at heart. But no matter how smart or hard working you are all humans make mistakes.

you use ex soldiers as cops and this hapens.
and they train cops like soldiers.
they get them hyp't up.
they teach them All people are Bad and use all the force you can get away with.

well this time we can see its the cops who need physiatrist help.
and they need to stop teaching them that the streets of america are a war zone.
its Not all gun shoot outs at the cinemas.

next time some black man takes out a phone at the cinema a cop will shoot him.
not the white man??? and hes the one to do it.

wow, this is really a shame. I know this cop has to feel like #. How can you mistake your own child for someone else? It has to be way more to this story then whats being told.

There has to be more to the story than is given. Don't simplify this so much that his son was simply knocking at the door and the father cracks it and opens fire.

I have family and very close friends who are law enforcement. There are few that I respect more than them.
