re: Fox: Minnesota officer who shot Daunte should have known difference between gun and Taser

Root cause analysis rather than individual castigation is the solution.

True dat - HOWEVER - until some sort of action is taken to solve the ROOT PROBLEM any other activity is nothing more than putting more bandaids on ever expanding eruptions from the fatal cancer spreading inside the host.

The root cause of these outrages is the purposeful destruction of the nuclear family concept within the black "community." Almost 3/4 of black children are born into fatherless homes, mostly supported by welfare alone. These communities are propagandized incessantly that it is "white supremacy" and "systemic racism" that is the root cause of their plight and are subtle encouraged to act out their new-found grievances against public order in order to draw attention to their victimhood.

In the end, it appears to me that our continued modifications of normal processes to avoid harming those who are motivated by a concept foreign to our natural concepts of responsible behavior is merely furthering the insane culture that is driving this 'community' toward more decadence and lawlessness.

WHY should we be sympathetic to someone whose entire culture is based on violent resistance to ordinary rule of law?

There is only one force that is keeping this mistaken ideology alive in the black "community" and that is the DEMOCRAT party cabal that is trying to overthrow our constitutional republic. THEY are inciting the riots, and feeding the fuel that sustains them.

Any further adjustments we make to our established order is further chipping away at our own protections while expanding the field of battle for them to exploit.

I actually think we need some period of Marshall Law to quell this crap.

And yes - we should always demand honor, competence, and responsibility from our law enforcement entity from top to bottom. But anything that further hobbles their effectiveness and safety should not be accepted in order to "show we love you." We need a firm parental type structure that demands some degree of personal responsibility.

Will we hear similar things when a pilot for United who has no business being in the cockpit other than their gender or the color of their skin makes a similar “mistake”?

Daunte should have known resisting and attempting to elude police has a risk of danger.
The officer will pay for the rest of her life because of Daunte's "mistake".

The officer did screw up and deserves some sort of punishment, but once again the bulk of the blame goes to the criminal. If he didn't try to bolt, he would be alive today. It seems we have a lack of critical thinking into root cause analysis.

just let it be known = "if you resist, we kill you - dead - on the spot - understand

That's how it's always been, if you resist with the potential of violent force, kiss your arse goodbye.

From since I was a child, it has been no different. Dude I grew up with, Guy Wilson FAAFO'd on the red river levee...

Not a word was said, then...exactly the same scenario.

If people stopped resisting there would basically be zero deaths like this.

I agree. But cops are trained to amp up these situations. And when officer safety is the first priority in all cases, that gives a lot of leeway for abuse by cops. The increase in authority should require a corresponding increase in responsibility.

But for the actions (fleeing) of the perp, this shooting would not have happened. That said, the police officer grabbing her gun versus her taser is a mistake for which their should be punishment.

I’m sorry, but a suspect attempting to flee shouldn’t automatically give the police license to execute them. This isn’t Judge Dredd.

This is a such a low IQ take. Police aren’t punishing someone for fleeing, they are defending themselves. There are plenty of videos that show how quickly a subject can grab and fire a gun from inside their car. When someone jumps back into their car, police don’t know if they are fleeing or trying to grab a gun. It’s great if their hesitation ultimately results in no lives lost, but it sucks when that hesitation is the last thing they do in life.

In this case, she would have been better off defending the use of force but for her confusing a gun for a taser.
