    Why should she have to announce that she was holding her legal property inside her own home?

    Why shouldn’t the police have given her time to drop her weapon when they told her to drop her weapon?

        Insulting me does not answer my questions. Please answer my questions:

        Why should she have to announce that she was holding her legal property inside her own home?

        Why shouldn’t the police have given her time to drop her weapon when they told her to drop her weapon?

          I’m not your educator, nor am I under any obligation to answer questions that fundamentally bad. Entitlement doesn’t stop bullets.

            In other words, those are questions that, if you answered honestly, would undermine your whole argument that the police were justified.

              Not at all. And I just gave you your answer. Entitlement doesn’t stop bullets, something you clearly struggle with.

                I see, so your justification for the police shooting someone is that they shouldn’t feel entitled to not be shot.

                  You have a choice. You can be right and dead. Or you can be alive and sort it out later.

                  I never said that she deserved to be shot or that the cops were justified. I only explained why they shot her and why they’re likely not to face any consequences for this. I gave no personal judgement. Here is the problem with people like you, you have absolutely no ability for nuance. Anyone who doesn’t immediately cheerlead everything you say 100% must mean that they’re 100% against you and should be attacked.

                  it’s funny because your behaviour embodies what you claim you’re raging against.

                    Your words:

                    They didn’t imagine the gun. The girlfriend confirms that she picked up her gun and went to the door. If the police are there and banging on the door, you don’t pick up a gun and walk to the door in America.

                    Sure sounds like you’re justifying what they did to me.

                    I gave no personal judgement.

                    That’s ridiculous. This entire time, you’ve been judging her actions.

                    Also, it’s pretty funny that you are complaining about being accused of judging people and then end your post by judging me.

                    If that’s what you really meant from the start and if you know that people struggle with nuance then why didn’t you say what you just said instead of insulting people?
