Girl, 14, killed by LA police in clothing store shooting

The law is what I'm talking about. If a person is killed because somebody else instigated the crime...the person who instigated the crime is charged with murder. It takes place all the time. The concept is used if a pair of burgers were confronted by a homeowner and one was shot by the homeowner. The murder charge is assigned to the surviving burgler. Or such as a case in Oklahoma--a group of youngsters committed a driveby shooting. The father of one of the shooting targets came out of his house and shot at the vehicle as it was fleeing...killing an occupant. The other occupants were all charged with murder. Not the father.

 

It happens…

 

I fully expect both of those perps to do life in prison.

But, THIS thread is about the shooting in LA.

 

Yeah right, so the police can indiscriminately kill people, and blame others. !!!!

 

Sounds like a tragic accident. Though there is plenty of room for cop haters to jump the gun and immediately start slinging mud and perhaps even some race baiting.

So far there is nothing available that I believe would make it rational to blame the officer.

We will see what other details emerge.

 

the reality is, we are not surprised when criminals shot innocent people, and we know the victim will get justice

we are shocked when it's a cop that kills innocent children

we are unsure if this child will get justice, if the state will fight the parents in court when they sue even

 

it was a tragic accident, the question is, did the cop need to fire in a busy store in the first place?

will need to hear more about why the cop choose to fire

the only thing that may make it justified is it seems someone reported shots fired, thus they may have assumed he had a gun

 

Actually after a long look I was reminded of the thread where the driver of a car shot at the driver of a truck and a woman passenger was killed. I also posted to all the Left claiming the shooter was in the right and justified that what if THIS HAD BEEN A COP?

Well here we go

 

We have no idea.

Though it didnt take long for the irrational cop hating to show its face.

The left jumping to conclusions about an officers actions without evidence is par for the course.

 

where did I jump to conclusions, I asked questions, to some on the right to even ask questions is cop hating

if a good guy with a gun did this, would ask the same questions

 

I didnt say you did. No one on the right finds asking questions to be cop hating. That is a nonsensical conclusion to come to.

 

It’s quite sad to see so many people shrug and say “it happens”. Like they don’t even care if a mistake was made, and try to figure out how to prevent it in the future.
Did this police officer follow their training and procedures? Were they allowed to draw a gun and shoot in those circumstances?
If so, should training be changed? Should policies be changed?

I think it’s pretty sick to say that it’s no big deal for innocent children to be killed by cops. That there’s no lesson to be learned.

I’m not even discussing whether the cop should be charged with anything. Maybe, maybe not. I have no idea. But I find it sad and sick for people to ignore it like it’s just ok.

 

exactly, if they thought the lock was a gun, that makes a difference, especially if someone reported shots fired

but we do not want cops just shooting because it's "easier" than dealing with the situation at hand as their first choice, especially in a busy store

 

Its sad for people to jump to conclusions and immediately speak their bias against this officer without the facts. Not only is it sick for people to do this, its absolutely dangerous.

 

the race of the victim doesn't make a difference

 

If we want officers to be less likely to go for a gun its going to take a complete reimagining of the manner in which we select our police forces. One I suspect people are to ignorant to support.

 

To democrats, it overwhelmingly does matter.

 

I think anytime an innocent person is shot by police, the victim's family should get 1 million dollars, and not have to fight for it

this would make the city work to prevent the needless deaths, and if one happened and was unavoidable, you would know the cops weighed the consequences of shooting to the financial loss that would be involved it they kill innocent people

 

to some, just like to some on the right it matters

but to those it matters too, are the racists of each party

 

Maggot beats a woman with a bike lock, cops shoot to stop threat (if that’s the way it happened) cop accidentally shoots girl who he didn’t see while trying to stop the maggot. The maggot can get charged with the girls killing as his actions caused the cop to shoot. In other words, if this maggot didn’t do what he did a 14 year old would still be alive. It was the maggots choice all along to smash an innocent woman with a lock or just walk away. Cop was doing as he was trained to stop said maggot.

Here’s perhaps a better explanation. Three gangbangers are going to rob a drug dealer, only a robbery. Two get out, the other stays in car as look out/ get away driver. The two go in and one shoots and kills the drug dealer. All three can be charged with murder, including the driver even though he wasn’t even in the house.

 

The difference is the level of participation by each party.

The racist right is small and insignificant.

The racist left who choose right vs wrong based on skin color are prevalent and abundant. They exist on this very forum in abundance and in the highest offices including brandon. They usually are itching for the next solid race bait.

 

disagree, I see it on both sides sadly

 

Thats because your bias clouds your judgement.

The racist left is far more abundant.

 

I would absolutely love to see some of the leftists here come to my little slice of heaven, Detroit and work as a beat cop. Or Chicago. Baltimore. St. Louis. LA……any one of their liberal crap holes.

 

sure it's not your bias clouding your judgement?
