Cowards.
The thing is, they have no duty to stop him before he kills someone.
In the US, they don’t even have a duty to stop him after he kills someone. Police have no duty or requirement to protect civilians.
I know. My point still stands.
They have no duty to stop him even as he is killing someone
No duty, even after he’s killed a few people, and working to kill more.
Maybe we should re-label mass shooters to something like “climate protesters”. Those are words that always receive a massive police response.
They don’t appear to have any duties at all.
Their only duties are administrative. Draw lines with chalk, collect evidence, fill out paperwork.
The only person who can be trusted to defend your life is yourself, unfortunately.
No legal* duty
Of course. He wasn’t an innocent black man, he could’ve been dangerous! Best leave him be.
Seriously, I’m of the opinion that if cops are just going to shoot at dogs and innocent civilians and ignore shit like this then we would be better off (and safer) without cops.

The idea that those in power are somehow “special” and should face less accountability for their actions is a cancer on society. If you get special privileges, you should come under extra scrutiny as well.
The law should do all it can to ensure that leaders and law enforcement are the best of the best. Instead it shields them from oversight and allows incompetence and open corruption to fester among their ranks.
What exactly would you say you do here?
Definitely not being a “people person”
