Should we, as Citizens, not always first ask of the State "What did you do and why did a Citizen die by your hands?" instead of "Well, the Citizen should know better and I side with the State in this." ? I ask this because it seems that we often bend over backwards to defend the police in a situation like this instead of giving the citizen 100% of the benefit of the doubt.
I don't believe that most people want more government. I think you are confusing specific government with more government. Some areas need to increase, because government's job is to facilitate the life of the people. Other areas of government need to decrease. We have hundreds of government employees, that we pay massive amounts of money to, that can't even draft a friggen simple law without it having 14 legal holes. We could do with less of that, and put some of that money, in, apparently, "writing" education.
One officer charged with 3 counts of felony wanton endangerment. The others officers have been charged with mur...oh, actually, nothing. That’s it. That’s the list of charges. RIP Louisville.
One better than none. And no-knocks suspended long ago in Louisville. That's about as close as we're going to get any time soon.
Still not sure how anybody ever expected to get a murder charge out of this. Manslaughter? Sure. Unions have power. Until that's broken nothing at all will change.
Firemen too, if they killed people. Just telling you. They hold power, and in Louisville it appears they hold lots and lots of power.
Manslaughter should have been the charge for whoever approved the no knock warrant or whoever fudged it so they could get a no knock warrant.
Hard to say. Probably there are other unions so powerful, but those unions don't regularly represent folks who carry, point, and shoot guns at people.

Will be curious to see what extra information comes out about this. This kind of has the feel of something the media plays up as a big deal and then turns out to be nothing, but I guess we will know soon.
A good test for whether it is or is not anything would be to define what would qualify as something now. Would the DA not giving any option for finding higher charges be something? would be putting out or failing to correct false details, such as there being no camera footage, be something?
For the former, I'd have to educate myself a bit more on how these situations work. For the latter, I think it would depend what that camera footage shows. I'm not sure why there's a need to define it now, rather than waiting to see what info comes out and then deciding.
right, so you will think it is nothing. whatever it is, you will rationalize it-- even if it shows bald face lying, such as about the presence of cameras.
