    Default police kill another person.....

    Cops went to the wrong address at 1:30 in the morning and the guy answers the door with a gun. He was shot and killed by the officer. I am sure there are more details but as of now this is all thats reported...here is a link to the story. Horrible situation for everyone involved. This seems to be happening alot lately, wonder why.

    I posted a link to that story here: http://www.scducks.com/forum/showthread.php?t=92874 since it was relevant.

    Mistakes happen. I get that. However, mistakes like this are unexcusable.

    "The police department says it would not have opened fire if the man had not been holding a gun..."

    BS answer right here.

    Law enforcement agencies have become para-military organizations with an us vs them mentality. Do they have a hard job? Yes. I think the question is, why did they chose that job in the first place?

    Somebody needs to go to jail for this. When you knock on anyone's door at 1:30, you should expect that they might be legally armed. I wouldn't answer my door at that hour without a gun in my hand.

    That was my thought as well. Hell I might not even open the door and if that had happened the police would have broken it down and then he would have shot at them and they would have killed him then. Terrible mistake but yes the LEO must be held accountable for this. Like police tell us mistakes and ignorance isnt a defense against breaking the law.

    That cop who pulled the trigger is a coward and a piece of shit. A life sentence in general population sounds about right.
