Texas Castle Doctrine contradicts this. Of course, it does not make him less dead, even that he was in the right. It means we shouldn't put morons in uniform with badges and guns and a free license to kill anyone they want when they "fear for their safety"  |
No easy answers for this. Do the best and brightest line up to be cops? Does a society w/o cops sound good or sound like Somalia?
It's human nature for cops to fear for their safety. It takes a mature person to have the calmness to assess the situation first. Maturity comes from experience. Experience comes from immaturity (to paraphrase the saying).
