That's a whole 150 ft. It's like running from home to second base. From the scene of the robbery.

170 feet. It is in the Grand Jury report. His body was 150+ feet from the police vehicle.

These are facts. Why laugh.

What else is in the grand jury report? If only there was some system in place for some independent parties to look at everything in these reports and decide if there is enough there for an indictment.

Show me where I said anything about whether or not there should have been an indictment? I was talking about why people might have been upset or not.

You are arguing against someone else and old arguments.

Why do you feel compelled to speak on behalf of the dumbasses?

I can only think of one reason...

If those two sentences are true, easily justified.


And that's the rub.

People don't automatically believe a cop's version of events any more. Too often, through video evidence, we've seen that the cop's story differs greatly from what actually happened.

That said, if he grabbed the baton, shooting was justified.

And women should not be allowed to be patrol officers.

And that's why there should be no female cops outside of the station.

Don't care if they pass the minimum physical requirements. They do not belong on the street where 50 percent of the population can easily overpower them.

I love a story with a happy ending.

See with so many people confessing publicly on forums that they didn't know attacking and provoking cops could get a person killed this story is a fantastic example of what NOT to do.

This man was a martyr so everyone else could learn from his mistake.
