ok! people get shot every day! S**t like this happens all the time in philly! White people and black people!! Cops have a dangerous job and are underpaid (at least in philadelphia they are). I am not suprised that happened with all that s**t going on. Police are humans too and do make mistakes! I am not saying anybody deseverd to be shot but its a violant world we live in. Hey, people are being shot everyday maybe even right now as we speak across the big pond they call the atlantic ocean. There are a lot of innocent people over there too!!
Talk about a thread hijack.
Something clearly went wrong in that video. We don't know what.
It seems unreasonable to presume it was a intentionally an "execution" because that makes no sense. I've heard speculation that the Officer had reached for his tazer, grabbed the wrong weapon, and shot that... a theory that also seems ridiculous. However, the officer is being prosecuted and rightly so.
I'm a supporter of the police, but it's not possible to excuse what happened in that video. Perhaps it can be explained, but even in the best case scenario, it would seem it'll have been reckless and criminally negligent on the Officers part.
NONE OF THIS HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH FOSSTEN'S POST.
The violation is inexcusable and he should be suspended for the season. That thuggish mentality and attitude is killing the sport.
The small victory is that at least he was giving a foul, ejected from the game, and his team LOST.
