Quote:Lawmakers rip NYPD after ‘frightened’ officer shoots and kills unarmed Brooklyn man
Quote:WCBS-TV reported that Liang’s gun accidentally fired after he opened the door to the dimly-lit stairwell with the same hand he was using to carry the firearm.
I'm pretty sure he didn't learn that move in the police academy.
Quote:“We believe he intentionally discharged his weapon because he’s inexperienced and he was frightened,” Barron told WCBS. “Over what, we don’t know.”
Which brings us back to the question of why are these fucking cops such pussies that the mere act of walking through a door requires them to pull their fucking guns out?
That's a really dumb incident. The dummy cops waltz into a multistory apartment building that houses countless people. The building management is too cheap to replace the burned out light bulbs so the tenants have to stumble up and down the stairs in the dark.
The cops, who have no real reason for being in the building in the first place, whip out their guns and get all trigger happy when they hear people walking down the stairs in the dark. So the dummy cop starts shooting without a clue as to what he's shooting at or why he's shooting in the first place.
Then the mayor and police chief start blabbing about how it was all a tragic accident. I wonder if they would be so understanding if the cop had shot one of their family members instead of a black guy? After all, the incident did happen in the New York City concentration camp where black guys take their lives in their hands just by walking down the street where cops can stop and frisk them like they are runaway slaves.
