    Yes I have several time. Usually like, feral children. I am implying children growing up without parents and parental guidance. Actually I usually say this when expressing disagreement with the Republican position on abortion. I do not see a good reason to force women to raise children alone that they do not want. We do not need more feral children.

    I just saw that. It's what I expected. That video just didn't provide any reasonable excuse for her pulling the trigger.

    I posted a link to the story too. I really don't know much about the NC shooting, etc. I just find so chilling though the Tulsa video or the Louisiana video or there was the video from the South Carolina officer who shot a guy in the back and then planted a taser at the scene. These things seem so obvious to me to be an extreme overreaction and senseless killing. It's also why we need body cams, etc. The police (like in South Carolina which were captured by cell phone video) show that the police can't be trusted with their version of events.

    Based on what we saw, it seems about right. However, the chief did put her out there and issued her a friggin gun without being prepare to use is with proper discretion.
    I would fire his ass for that error. In all fairness, perhaps her immediate supervisor if not the chief.

    Now, can anyone say if the dead guys car was broken down? I still say the guy was acting irrational and I do not understand why the police got all amped up about him.

    I mean WTF, come on, it can't be just because he was a big black dude! Acting irrationally should have set them on another course if they had adequate training.

    Yes but was the officer drug tested after the shooting? Many police union contracts, including Portland's, does not allow it.

    Ouch! That is another whole problem that should not be permitted to exist.
