Could this explain why cops are often jumpy and "on edge"? You bet it could....

No matter what their "oath" and "professionalism" demands, they're human beings with families and loved ones who depend on them... when they feel threatened, they're NOT just going to stand there and let some scumbag kill them if they can avoid it. There are, always have been, and always will be times when maybe they're a little too quick to pull the trigger... but they're not superhuman, after all. And then shit like this happens.... a friggen' TRAFFIC STOP....

Steve McCraw, head of the Texas Department of Public Safety, said Pimentel is the fifth law enforcement officer to die in Texas this year. Three of the five were killed by gunfire. Thirteen officers died in the line of duty last year.

"Every day police officers throughout the state risk their lives to protect their communities, and tragically sometimes they make the ultimate sacrifice," McCraw said.

Every time they go to work, every minute they do their job, every time they go out on a call... it's always with the expectation, the creepy feeling, that the next encounter is the dirtball who will be the last thing they see.

These days, there are simply too many lowlifes running around loose on the streets. Unlike days gone by, being a cop is a lousy job...
 
I think most people who are absolutely critical of police don't understand the sacrifice they make the risk they take.

It's as if the only way they should ever pull a gun is if a gun is pointed at them. Unfortunately, if that occurs, it's the other guy who is more likely to shoot first, and if they're on the mark, it's lights out for the police officer. Not to mention that so many weapons that aren't guns are very deadly in themselves.

Do police jump the gun sometimes? Absolutely. I don't doubt there are even pockets of extremes, where police abuse their power completely.

However, listening to the police cynics, they never acknowledge or appear at all thankful for the protection they recieve. That's a huge necessary disclaimer if you're going to bash certain police officers.
 
Blacks have been given special treatment since the civil rights act of 1964. They have become to feel entitled and believe that whitey will back down whenever challenged, otherwise they are racist. Just look at the Black mobs that are looting stores. It would not be tolerated in the rest of society, but being its Black's everyone just ignores the issue and they believe they are untouchable on such matters.
Blacks need to be judged by the content of their character and not their color. Society looking the other way has developed some very bad citizen behavior.

I was wondering why it has taken so long for this story show up here. Yes a bad thing. How would something like this be prevented? Certainly be on guard but the only thing to completely prevent this would be to shoot the person before you know anything about him whether innocent or guilty. I don't think that is what you are suggesting.
