Have you ever worn a uniform with a Badge and a Weapon, Da, probably not!
So what do you know other than reading some funky article about what happened!
I was very lucky in 7 years that I did not have to shoot anyone, I will tell you I was very damn close!
The Time between seconds do not count, you have miliseconds to decide and while trained to do certain things, human life is a strong deterent! But, you have just a short period of time, is it them or me?
Never talk about the shoes you have never worn!
Oh, how about the 3 Police Cars I had taken out from under Me when the good citizens did not see the red lights or hear the sirens! Damn lucky to be alive!

No. I have never worn a badge, carried a gun, shot an unarmed college student, or sodomized an illegal alien with a nightstick. I'll concede, you have more experience that me in those areas.
Back to my point. If a cop isn't qualified to carry pepper spray then why is he carrying a gun? Why did the cop shoot in the first place? His life wasn't in danger. He was called because of noise.
PS. I don't care if you had 3 police cars taken out from under you. You were probably speeding and running through redlights which caused the accidents.
