    Yes. He was a minor drug offender, so he pretty much deserved to die.

    I'm going to start buying pants with no waist band so I don't ever confuse a cop.

    Shouldn't have run, and oh yeah, they did find a semiautomatic gun in the car.

    Another fine citizen.

    In this day and age the police would have shot and killed Helen Keller for
    only putting one hand up.

    Having only 21 areas in the country rank worse than you in terms of crime rate can make anybody lose their mind.

    If you run you deserve to be shot?
