For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
every country has cars and police
Yes, but they also have educated and trained police. Here, a candidate must meet the requirements for university, be fit, and psychologically stable before he or she can start a training of three to five years.
Being police is more than just be intimidating and knowing which end of a gun is.the business end.
Actually this would be double murder. Now that fetuses are considered full human beings, remember abortions being murder? This is a double murder.
Eh, then again I'm sure that because this was a police officer, Republicans wont care. We must obey the police!
Her unborn child should have had a gun, then it could have shot the cop first
What I see here is a cop trained to shoot to kill at the slightest chance.
I mean, if I ever visit this country and a policeman interacts with me I will pee my pants. Literally*.
*You know, like what "literally" meant in the old times.
No, actually the total opposite.
This is yet another example of a police officer getting minimal training, 6 months and here you have a gun, now go be Rambo. Coooool!
In North western Europe, police officers require good education to even be able to start their police officer education. Then it's 4 years of learning to get to a point that they can call themselves a basic police officer.
Wanna go anything beyond that? Be a detective? More schooling.
In the US they explicitly filter on getting dumber people, they give no adequate training at all, don't tech them de-escalation, etc.
Couple that with a police force that has a ver "we protect eachother over protecting them"
Couple that with a culture that is much more authoritive. Freedom? Hah! Obey! That kid smokes a joint? Toss him in jail!
Couple that with a justice system that is much more focussed on punishment instead of rehabilitation.
Couple that with an endless supply of guns out in the street.
Seriously, how is anyone surprised that this shit happens all the time?
