Thin blue line executes unarmed man with early onset dementia.

Story is very vague, but awful sounding.

Who called the police on this guy stating he was threatening people with a gun? That person needs a Chadwick slap.

NEVER call police when dealing with family.

Not saying that applies here but it has many times before.

That an ignorant thing to say.

"NEVER" is too much, but I agree with the premise.

Calling the police to deal with a family member is not smart at all, it should be a last resort for when you fear that family member will hurt someone. Any other reason is just creating an opportunity for trouble to arise.

The latest video out of Ft. Worth shows that calling the police is a potentially stupid mistake if you are not in danger.

Black woman calls police because adult neighbor is alleged to have assaulted her minor son.
Officer arrives and directs his scrutiny towards the black people who called the police.
Officer is reluctant to deal with the matter and questions her parenting.
Black woman gets angry, says that the adult neighbor has no right to put his hands on the child.
Officer asks, "Why not?"
Black woman gets angry at such a ridiculous thing to say so the officer assaults her and another victim and takes them to jail.

How else to file a report?
At what point is someone in "danger"?
You mean only call police when there is a chance of death?

You can file a report by going to the police station.
A person's judegement of when they are in danger is their own, why the hyperbole?

Because maybe she felt/judged her son was in danger. I would guess that wasn't the first incident among them. In any case I would think the officer should attempt to deescalate not provoke the complainant.

I thought we agreed he probably shouldn't be a cop? I'm saying a third shouldn't be.

I was confused by your vague BLM trigger comment.

We can disagree on your opinion about one third being dickheads.

Pardon me? Are you implying that ThirtyBU hasn't made intelligent posts before?

While Thirty and I disagree in many areas his positions are pretty much always well thought out and expressed, even though we seem to have different values and reach different conclusions. He adds a lot to the discussion on AMT. Your comment baffles me (though if I misunderstood what you meant I apologize)

Cheers, Often!

I could easily express the same for yourself. You like many others challenge my way of thinking and thus... the MT is significant to me.

I'm thinking... or at least I'm hoping... ilovit is messing with me.
