In a conversation with Mike Solan, the head of the Seattle Police Officers’ Guild, Seattle Police Department officer and SPOG vice president Daniel Auderer minimized the killing of 23-year-old student Jaahnavi Kandula by police officer Kevin Dave and joked that she had “limited value” as a “regular person” who was only 26 years old.

In fact, as we reported exclusively, Dave was driving 74 miles an hour in a 25 mile per hour zone and struck Kandula while she was attempting to cross the street in a marked and well-lighted crosswalk.

    Police have guns in other countries and dont go around shooting people that arent criminals and for no reason.

    1. Yes they fuck they do.
    2. Being labeled “criminal” is not justification for shooting somoene.

      1. Sure, but that’s like comparing dropping a needle and dropping a grand piano on someone’s head. Its not a problem in most other countries where only the police have guns. Its… you know… rare… And taken seriously…

      2. Oh! So we agree, police shouldnt be able to be judge judy and executioner when they suspect some poor black guy just casually sitting in his car?

      The thing is that they dont need to label you anything to shoot you in the states, they just do it anyway. Until they are up against someone shooting up a school, then they just stand there and let the public deal with it…
