The law enforcement thread

Imagine being cop and running up to a house where a huge woman was wielding a kitchen knife attempting to stab folks and ending to the threat thinking you have saved someone life, only for the victims who were screaming for your help turn and ask why did you do that?

These aren’t people but pieces of shit. The cop should get an award

It's funny, Lebron pulled a dumbass move and used his platform to push back against the cop before he watched the video.

Literally as soon as we see video it can change the entire narrative. Video doesn't lie.

I'd like to excuse the actions of the people who immediately questioned why a cop would shoot a knife-wielding maniac, but I'm gonna stay out of that one. It's easy to condemn them while we sit here in our comfy chairs chatting on a forum, but the shock of the situation means we all would react in our own way. I stand by the cop on that one.

I love his reasoning for deleting the tweet too. It wasn't because he clearly posted it before watching the video, it was because other people didn't understand his general frustration and/or other people were using it to create more hate.

Nothing to do with him fucking up.

He should have just manned up and said something like:

Out of frustration, I rushed to judgment on this matter and spoke too soon. In hindsight, that is my bad.

Instead, we get a cop-out excuse and blaming everyone else.
