This REALY Happened !!!

Our laws are different, we are protected under the 2nd, we do have castle laws in many states. But the rest has a familiar ring to it. Every time some nut gets his hands on a gun he shouldn't have, all gun owners face ridicule. Every time someone shoots in self defense, that person is on trial of public opinion, is scrutinized beyond reason and has to jump through more hoops than the assailant. We do give the benefit of the doubt to the perpetrator rather than the person who is, legally, defending himself or his property. It is worse if the shooter is a cop. The cops will, most likely, lose his/her job, the family...spouse, kids alike...have their lives turned upside down.
So are we really that different?

that is absolute horseshit

I have never been able to get anybody on here to explain to somebody from Britain just how these two cops were not tried and convicted for murder especially when the whole thing was on video? The poor guy was schizo ffs and the police has been there many times before without incident, it was murder pure and simple.

He was black. US racists applaud killing black people and empower racist cops to kill more. How do you not know that after all your years cozying up to the conservatives on JPP?

Here's a thought: America is still a better place to live than England. Sucks to be you, Tom.
