why does it have to be 1 or the other?

I wonder if everyone just started using it randomly would that take away it's racist meaning?

In the one I saw another officer moved the cops knee off the looters neck. The first cop must not have got the memo that it was a bad idea. Or he just doesn't give a fuck and if that's the case he should not be a cop.

they tried the first night and couldn't get in and had to come back with better tools the 2nd night edited for spelling

If the guy in the gun shop had not stopped the looters from stealing his guns there could have been more shooting deaths.

sad and embarrassed

I believe there is something about "looting during a state of emergency" also. Either way like Joe says you open up a whole legal shitstorm shooting anyone justified or not.

the cops should have arrested the looters

According to Florida law, a person can use or threaten to use deadly force to prevent the imminent commission of "forcible felonies" such as assault, burglary, or kidnapping SkyDekker not sure why you were compelled to add "Can you murder someone for a misdemeanor?" The law I quoted was pretty clear with Forcible felonies. When does looting become burglary? I really don't know.

that depends on where you are.Some states allow deadly force to prevent forcible felonies which includes burglary

guns don't kill people bullets do

I got nothing just wow
