because the ones who do that are inept at their job and were probably the guy in high school who did the same thing to other kids..

We really need to get officers some better less than lethal options for such events. Maybe something as simple and old school as a net or webbing which can be deployed to restrict movement making it easier to stop an incident without escalation to real bullets.An unarmed Black man has been killed by police in Killeen, Tx., in a fatal shooting that was partially captured on video, PEOPLE confirms.
On Wednesday, civil rights attorney Lee Merritt released doorbell and smart phone footage of the moments leading up to the killing of 52-year-old Patrick Warren, Sr.
The footage also includes the immediate aftermath of Sunday's shooting, which Warren's family witnessed.
"I told you, don't use a gun," Warren's son repeats to Killeen Policeman Reynaldo Contreras, the officer who shot Warren, according to a statement from Killeen Police.
The shooting occurred at about 5:30 p.m., according to the statement.
The statement notes Contreras has been with the department for five years. He has been placed on administrative leave as the investigation into the shooting — being conducted by the Texas Rangers — continues. Killeen's Internal Affairs Unit will be conducting its own investigation into Sunday's fatal encounter..............

“Executive Assistant Police Chief Finner said he was not sure whether officers at the scene knew the baby was in the car.”
So they either had no idea who else might be in the car, but decided to open fire anyway, or they knew who else was in the car, but decided it was an acceptable risk.
I gotta say, I’m with Grandadmiral on this one. Unacceptable.
The mother says she was in the car as well (I think I read that right), but the police say that she wasn’t.
There has to be body cam footage or footage from the gas station.
Something's not right no matter how you look at it.
And by "they" you mean the real enablers of police misconduct, the police unions. This dude shouldn't be allowed to hold a weapon, much less, allowed to serve as a police officer and that is evident by his unprofessional/untrained actions from the body cam video. NOPD has come a long way from its pre-Katrina days and that traffic stop by a piss poor cop has set them back with the public.Dude lost his job for firing his gun inappropriately and they let him back on appeal. What happens...?
He does it again...
