The only problem I have with the mess in Missouri is they picked the
wrong case to go off on. The guy they choked to death in New York is a
better case. Of course you also have Diallo who was shot 41 times. The
problem is they are both in New York, a bluer than blue city in a blue
state.


Also the densest population area in the country. Two incidents like
this could happen in the middle of different states if you spread NY
out.


The issue is supposed to be an egregious abuse of police power. Is
that excused if it is the big city?


What's your comment about blue city suppose to indicate? You think
cops in NY are more likely to be R's or Ds? R's constitute 33% of the
population in NYC.


I only question why they single out this incident and ignore far worse
ones. Were the looking for a red state to drive this issue?

This really looks like it might turn out to be a good shoot just a bad
shot. Six rounds only inflicted 2 serious wounds and 3 went on into
the environment somewhere. Good thing this was a less populated area
or we would have had bystanders hit.

I suppose he might have been hurt in the "scuffle" in the car enough
to affect his aim but that helps the officer.


Crock o' Poop. The cop was 20-25 feet away when he shot 3 or 4
additional rounds after the kid was hit.

The last shot entered the top of his skull, meaning that he was
bending forward and going down. No cop could argue that he felt his
life was being threatened.

The cop will be guilty of murder, which variety is yet to be known.
