Two heroes dead at the hands of a policeman.

Well, I haven't mentioned that for a reason; I don't know the race of the POLICE officers or if it makes a difference. I am more concerned about the police shooting a person out of hand because they had a gun in their hand which is legal in many states. Except for their race either of these men could be me.

Yeah , just damnn

Barelycorn and his band of pistol packers thwart a gun toting bad guy and the cops arrive and shoot Barleycorn and company.

Unintended consequences...the law of.

One story is starting to change. Police said that Emantic was brandishing a gun... now they're admitting he may not have been.

I'm almost certain the police over reacted in that case.
However, if the police come and they see some who isn't a cop with a gun pointed at someone, it can be a situation.

As to the mall shooting, its very tragic. I'm not certain what the circumstances were but you need to not have a gun in your hands when the police get there.
