I think it is for our judicial system to address this murder. Not for politicians.

There should be legislation in place that problematic cops fired from one department, cannot be fired into another.

This would have prevented this murder.

We need a healthy and safe police force that protects all of us. I’m White. I’ve never had to worry about calling the police and I say on every one of these threads that that should be a basic tenet of modern society, not a privilege. It’s pretty clear that some laws need to be passed around policing and that oversight needs to be moved from within the force to outside of it.

For example: the Washington Post ran an article a month or so ago about all the police officers who sexually abuse children who are entrusted to their care. It was disgusting. Read it and literally weep, so many children broken by officers in whom trust, whether implicit in the basic relationship between officer and citizens or explicit as in sometimes the police were supposed to be acting as mentors, had been placed. https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/interactive/2024/police-officers-child-sexual-abuse-in-america/?itid=mr_1

Eh. I mean, I understand implicit bias—but I don’t think that’s as big of a thing as the media narrative makes it out to be. Like, being afraid of calling the police specifically because you’re black.

I’m white and I am somewhat wary of calling the police—because you never know what kind of officer you’re going to get. And there’s quite a bug culture of “shoot first ask questions later”. Pretty sure when they do police training they drill that into you by showing recruits the dashcam video of a deputy pulling someone over without drawing his gun and calmly engaging him, only to be shot and killed.

Being white doesn’t protect you; ask Christian Glass, Hunter Brittain, Justine Damond, etc.

I think there just needs to be a bigger change in police culture.

She did. She went to attend to the pot. Then when he went crazy (because HE didn’t take HIS meds) she apologized (for nothing) as she was putting the pot down. HE IS rebuked.

Did you miss where she grabbed the pot and stated I rebuke you in the name of Jesus?

Most cops I know are Christian (specifically catholic) so this probable came across as very offensive.

It really doesn't matter how offensive her statement was. You don't kill someone over a statement you dislike. And no, boiling water held 10 feet away is not a "threat" in any way to a adult, mobile man who can step back in seconds. If she was even 1. holding the pot at this point (hard to tell) 2. The pot had hot water in it (looks like she had put it in the sink first and water was running). And let's remember HE is the one who told her to go handle that pot in the first place.

Pretty sure attempting to throw boiling water on the police is why they had to take her down not the Jesus statement

She did not attempt to throw anything.
You are a sicko and I Rebuke YOU in the name of Jesus!

Probably dropped the pot as the bullets entered her skull. That man went around the kitchen counter and took three shots. I just cannot imagine that woman's fear. So irritatingly sad.

Why probably? Did you see how close the water was to the officer and how high the steam was?

The water was close to the officer's feet because the cop walked to the right and around the counter to take the shot. He did not shoot through the kitchen counter. He moved his position to get the shot.

Maybe we need a national "blackball" list for officers who have crossed the line too many times. They should be removed from law enforcement, prevented from ever serving in law enforcement, and instead take up some other career that does not put them in a position to abuse others ever again.

Agree! Same needs to go for physicians who have been found guilty of malpractice. Enough is enough.

Just for some balance, where is the media attention to all the Caucasian people murdered by evil cops?
