    So by your logic we should be able to shoot anyone driving a car because they could potentially hit someone and kill them

    My logic doesn’t entail shooting everyone that drives a car. My logic is saying that context matters. Should we allow all drivers in all situations to drive recklessly regardless of the outcomes? You know the answer is no, so why are you asking that question?

        Come on…what a bad faith reduction of my position. I can tell there is no interest in having a conversation, just virtue signaling

            Yes, because asking for nuance and context in high stress situations is callous. Also, I never defended the cop but keep stroking your dick to feel good about your online virtue signaling.

              Dismissing the extra judicial killing of a 17 year old for the sake of “discussion” is callous. BuT fEeL gOoD aBoUt BeInG a PeDaNtiC DouChE.

                At what point did I ever say anything about the cop being absolved of any culpability? Thats the funny thing is people assume that just because someone asks for context in a conversation about a difficult situation that means we are automatically taking sides. Also, gotta love the loaded language used by keyboard warriors such as yourself. “Extra judicial killings” Tell me you’re 12 without telling me youre twelve. Fuck outta here
