Well, I would prefer not to see, but I get what you’re saying.
- Comment on Father Whose Son Was Shot by Cincinnati Police Hits Deputy With Car, Killing Him 2 weeks ago:
How you got that from my comment is beyond understanding. Did you read what I wrote? I was only commenting that based on the events as described in the article it is a little disappointing to read the gleefully and happy comments that an implied innocent person was killed by a grieving father.
As others have pointed out, the police in the US cannot be trusted. I do not trust the police in the US. I believe the militarisation of the police and the impunity with which they operate are a danger to the society. If anything I believe the police should be held to higher standards than the general population, not lower as I believe is the case. It’s a fucked up institution and stuff must change.
But none of that justifies randomly killing someone. If that makes you think I’m on the side of the police then 🤷♂️

According to the son was in a stolen vehicle, and ran away with a gun in his hand before being shot and killed.
The father after seeing the body cam video went out and killed a deputies who was directing traffic.
The article doesn’t say whether the deputy was involved in the shooting, but it’s implied he wasn’t.
The article, but frankly also the responses here, leave me with a lot of ethical questions. How is this not just incredibly tragic for everyone involved? How can you judge the police’s handling of the situation that resulted in the killing of the son as absolutely unjustified based on what was in the article, and how can you be happy that a seemingly innocent person was killed by the father? I’m as sceptical about the police as the next person, ACAB and all, but it’s a bit disappointing to see some of the reactions here, based on the information in the article. Perhaps I missed something and this was a George Floyd type situation? And it was the deputy who killed the son who was killed?
