    If cops are so scared of being killed then why don't they properly do their jobs? Would this not cut down on the danger factor of performing their jobs? Door wide open but you do not knock or announce yourself? I feel bad for the neighbor cuz I'm sure he wishes he had just went over and checked on her himself. I dont know if I'd ever get over the guilt of getting someone killed because I was concerned for them

    • @NopeUghUghAbsolutelyNot

      @jim hardy Nothing there said burglary but stereotypes. Why would you leave stuff in outside in a so called bad area? What? Bad area to who? House not clean enough... must be being ransacked??? So, No, didnt answer my own question cuz again... doing jobs properly cut down on dangers and risk because that's why they have rules and ways of doing things. Least that's the excuse they give for having such rules and and things especially for dangerous jobs.

    Take the badge off the man and you have a man looking through someone’s windows, stalking, then shooting a person inside that has no idea who or why it sounds like someone might be trying to break in to her house. The boy said there was no conversation between his aunt or anyone else. So instead of knocking on the door announcing his business, so the woman doesn’t need to be fearful he starts blasting away… and now pleads not guilty.
    He was given bail and it’s an all white jury it better be just or people are going to flip and who could blame them.

      not at all. cops like this feel literally zero remorse/empathy for their victims. the type of personality to become a police officer are usually on the sociopathic end of the spectrum. I can guarantee you 99% of cops that murder an innocent civilian only care if it impacts their status/career.
