re: Chicago police release video related to shooting of unarmed man

From his link:

---

1.to prevent death or great bodily harm to the sworn member or to another person, or:

The policy itself. You must go to the second section called deadly force.

Just noticed the last line in the link to the policy:

quote:

---

Sworn members will not unreasonably endanger themselves or another person to conform to the restrictions of this directive

So its policy, but dont endanger yourself or others by trying to conform to this policy

"Suspect is flying towards me and my partner at a high rate of speed. Policy says I can't shoot into a car. But by choosing not to shoot in the car, i could endanger myself or my partner. So its policy to say frick that other part of the policy"

Exactly.

The policy has stipulations to protect the safety of officers and the community in any situation.

Haven't read everything but what if the cop was shooting at the tires and not at the driver?

Watch the video...the gunfire is erratic as shite

People on here said the same thing about the Laquan McDonald shooting but nothing happened. And that one was 100 times worse than this one.

After this, there could potentially be some violence in Southside Chicago this weekend.
