Uh, sorry! The kid had a realistic-looking gun, and was waving it around. It’s people like Luckovich that are promoting the riots and lawlessness in this country. Apparently he want anarchy and more killing instead of law and order.
And they rode right up on him. In 1.8 seconds, the killer couldn’t have gotten his gun out and shot; I have no doubt it was ready to fire before they even stopped. I’ve also seen video of police talking a deranged man into surrendering a rifle he was using as a threat from across the street. Anyone care to guess what the difference was?
In any case, what the ’toon is saying is that whatever an officer does, the grand jury will act as defense attorney and judge and exonerate him or her without a real trial.
prfesserOr across the 49th and Great Lakes in Canada. You can carry (unloaded after first notifying law enforcement) only between your house and a gun club of which you are a member.
That’s what no one wants to admit. How many white people with guns in their hands actually get taken into custody and how many blacks with less than guns or not guns get shot and killed. Bunch of Hippocrates. You’ll never admit your racist and you’ll always say well if they dropped the weapon he wouldn’t have been killed. BUT how man of those whites actually killed people and been taken into custody and how many blacks who killed no one have died.

It’s a barrel where many of the fish kill themselves and their family members while congratulating themselves on how safe they are.
