IBH 100% correct. 99.99% of LE does great work , yet isn't covered in media much, however 01% (like Dallas incident) media covers 24/7 for the OUTRAGE factor. Kaepernick did what he did for the outrage .. ( and didn't work out for him ) Originally Posted by rexdutchman

The answer of course is a hardened criminal such as Mendoza. He already knew he was getting ready to be arrested. He was armed with a handgun while being on probation. He was looking at serious time, even in LA.
In Mendoza's mind, he was justified. That is how criminals think.
And Police Officers have to deal with it, sometime with tragic consequences. Originally Posted by Jackie S
