But you wouldn’t be justified in shooting your neighbor. Neither is the cop. You should both face the same charges.


Except I wouldn't have a body cam.

I'd have dropped my gun, called 911, tried to resuscitate the guy, and not said a damn word. Called my lawyer.

I bring a package to my neighbor and he answers the door with a gun and I shoot him with my CC, good luck proving I did anything wrong.

The body cam shows that the officer was never threatened.

You’d go to jail and be convicted. You can’t shoot people in their home just because they have a gun in their hand.

Hey matlock, you may want to peruse the syg law in your state. Sentence 1 is a real bitch.

What?

The cop needs to go to the penitentiary for the rest of his life. That was state sanctioned murder, plain and simple.

Did the victim mess up opening that door? Damn right he did. And if he knew it was the cops, he still shouldn't of answered it. Get a warrant.

The person who called it in even told the police they weren't sure which apartment number it was and finally guessed and gave them his apartment number. The cops did everything wrong from the dispatch to the mag dump.

And to answer the quote above: You go to a person's house with a package and they answer the door with a gun and you shoot and kill them, your arse is going to jail for murder, and rightfully so. You might want to brush up on the laws if you think you're getting out of that, Mr. CCW.
