Every game should have a train suplex.

I really do think that any group that has men in charge of children will have sexual abuse problems

So... Canadians pollute the air more, and this is a point for Canada?

Yes, yes I can. There is no such thing as “more profits then they really need.” Companies are literally under an ethical duty to maximize legal profits for their shareholders. To do things that don’t increase profits is a breach of fiduciary duty.

Actually, I’m not okay with anyone dying, on either side. I much prefer no one dying.

And an individual who isn’t following commands, who is reaching for something out of view of the Officers sight, who tries to grab the officer’s gun, they are threats.

I’m very sorry, but I have to agree with the commentator quoted in the article. These people are dead. If Cryonics ever works, we have no idea what will be required to keep the enormously complex machine that is the human body in working condition. What they are doing now is no more efficacious then the burial rites…

Innocent until proven guilty isn’t a legal term. If you are talking about Beyond a Reasonable Doubt, that is the standard for a court room. In these situations, the standard is ‘reasonable suspicion’ and probable cause.

Actually? 1. That quote appears nowhere in the opinion of Plummer. 2. That is an accurate quote from John Bad Elk, however, that case has been rendered irrelevant by statutory enactments which remove the common law right of resistance. The Federal Common Law was removed from existence by Erie, which destroyed the…

De-escalation works at times. It is another piece of the toolkit.

Everyone is. And when Police Officer’s kill anyone, unjustified, they should be tried in a court of law.

No, suspects are more expendable then police or civilians. That’s the current decision matrix. And Police didn’t sign up to be shot or killed. They are not soldiers.

Man, 1,000 out of 12,196,959. Police use lethal force in 0.008198764% of arrests. This is truly “jumping so often to lethal force.”

These protests are about the incident in Charlotte, so we will focus on that. And yes. If you have a gun, and the police tell you to put it down, and you don’t? You are being combative. Generally, if you don’t do what the police say you should? You are being combative.

If by heroes, you mean totally selfless martyrs? No, they aren’t. Police risk their lives, but they aren’t asked to let themselves be killed.

There are situations which do not require lethal force. Lots of them. The vast majority in fact. Which is why police have the various nonlethal tools they do. From shouting all the way to Tasing someone, police have a wide variety of options for dealing with threats. But there are extreme situations, where a Police…

When it means that someone else might die? Yes. Thats the judgment of society. The other measures are tools available, but they don’t work in every situation.

Unfortunately, that may result in the death or seriously bodily injury of a civilian or police officer, because those options may fail, and if they fail, result in an offender having time to take an action. Furthermore, police are not omniscient. They do not know when a suspect has a gun perfectly. And a times,…

I agree! Crowd Control is incredibly difficult, and there are always lessons to be learned from a failure. In an ideal world, protest leaders and higher ranking police would meet and discuss what occurred, what went wrong, and how the police could reduce the chance of it occurring again (not the protests, but the…

But you don’t believe lethal force should be used on unarmed people, so there go their guns (if you believe police officers should be using firearms nonlethally, you know nothing about guns.)
