"Refusing to get out of the car." Yes, because when he tried to get out of the car you shot him, you horrible cunt. They really are a law unto themselves.

this might Possibly be good news... American police ask Scottish cops to teach them how to stop killing people
I doubt it, unless the advice is this: Disarm the public then disarm yourselves. (Not that the police have any say in such matters anyway) Scottish police generally do not carry guns but I've a feeling there'd be a lot more death by cop in Scotland if they did. Ooft!
Yup. That, right there, is a huge part of the problem. Couple that with a lot of laws (particularly involving drugs) on the books that people just don't endorse or support, and it greatly erodes the relationship people have with the law enforcement in their communities. It's the difference between the officer responding to the next incident being viewed as Joe who lives 2 blocks down and gently broke up that fight last week at the party, and that f---ing a--hole Joe who cuffed 3 people at the party, and ruined your cousin's life for having a small bag of weed on him.
agreed, but Baby Steps.......the fact that someone is actually ASKING for advice is shockingly good news.
that headline: Wasn't so very long ago such a headline would have been shocking. Now it seems run-of-the-mill.
"Sick to death", or perhaps "Dying for a drink". "Pay up or die"? Whatever, but it's not always bullets they kill you with.
