Cops don't kill people; it's the criminals they're chasing who put the
populace at risk? Or is it guns don't kill people, it's the people who are
chasing the people who use guns who kill people? IOW, how many cops can
dance on the head of a perp?
Cops are trained never to use their puny little 9mm Glocks unless there is a
clear and imminent threat to human life, and even then they have to hold
their fire if there is *any* danger of hitting an innocent bystander. OTOH,
it's perfectly alright to chase some jacked-up nut-job in a 3,000-lb. car
(or, more frequently, pickup truck) thru a heavily traveled civilian
concours with several jacked-up, half-trained cops in 4,000-lb. cruisers.
I've seen them do this even when there were kids in the vehicle being
chased.
The cops get off on this sport because they get off on ***. Why else
join the force?
