Yall know that doesn't matter right? LT asked a good question. In La you can be charged with murder if someone is killed as a result of you committing a felony. For example you rob a bank and cop hits a pedestrian while chasing you. You can be slapped with that charge.

I failed to get my point across. Let me try this another way.

The cops are trying to get a cat they're fairly certain killed a guy off the street. This is a noble endeavor. However a ton of shite went terribly wrong.

Whoever planned the raid didn't realize they bad guy was in the upstairs apartment, not the one being raided.

They cop that shot the little girl went through the door, then another officer threw in a flash bang grenade (is grenade appropriate, I think that's what they are called) disorienting him.

The grandma may, or may not have swatted the guys rifle. He says yes, she says no. They both have reason to lie.

Let's not forget the reason the wolves were at their doorstep, Mr. Owens brought them there by killing a teenager.

There are all of these events that took place, ending with a little girl shot and killed. Only one person is being held responsible for this, the cop who held the gun. I ask is that fair?

Shouldn't his boss be held responsible? What about the guy who planned the raid, and didn't recognize this was a duplex?

The prevailing wisdom of the OT is to crucify this guy. There seems to be levels of incompetency and terrible decisions that culminated in the child being killed. But should one single man pay for it? Isn't the one that threw the grenade thing at least somewhat culpable? Is he on trial for his life?

I get it... Rabble, rabble, rabble... Bootlickers, pigs, military shite, geds...
