Why would any experienced officer want to have a discussion with you? They will never change your attitude or convince you of their actions.
I was in LE, and very expedrienced at that. I do not hate cops, have many cop friends. I also have been used as an expert witness at trials where small arms are concerned. And no my attitude will never change about what actions and use of force is right and what is criminally wrong.
What never ceases to amaze me is people like you, who after seeing a mistake made by an officer; jump to the aid of the P.O.S. (poor old subject ). Suddenly the actions of the P.O.S. are out-weighted by the single kick to the head.
I hate the "cops can do no wrong" ideology. And yes, I come to the defense of the, as you say, POS suspect. You as a cop are charged with protecting the POS's rights as well. That is fact. Just because the suspect has committed a crime, just shot someone, or what ever, he still has rights. Did you miss that lecture in the academy, out sick. Just because a person is being pursued as a criminal, and caught, does not mean you can ignore his rights. Nothing is out-weighted. Just because the POS committed a crime, does not mean you get a "free" shot at him. Thats militant thinking, vigilante attitude. Like, you made me do my job I applied for, you made me run after you, so I feel I get to kick you. It does not work that way. If you think it does, please quit LE now, you dont have what it takes to safely patrol and protect citizens.
