It is not established yet, whom fired the fatal bullet(s) .
I find it difficult to believe that a child used as a shield would not cause the officers on the spot to pull back. I still find the quote from Bratton.....
".......Police Chief William Bratton said yesterday that his officers were well within department policy when they shot carwash owner Jose Pena...."..... to be minimising the death of the kid.
I do not see this happening if a promenent member of society has their kid taken as a shield in the same set of conditions......class does play a role in the administrations of law, as sad as that is.
As to 'rush to judgement'...how long exactly do we wait to say this is a horrible thing to happen, no matter by who's hand. Does Bratton also stand judged as rushing to judgement on the death of this girl by saying the above, or do we leave our feelings about injustice at the door on the way out ?
I have yet to see a post here that condems the killing...apart from BoneHead...now there's a switch.
Are we killing so many people now all around the world , one more or less is justification for indifference....shame on you all if you think that.
