Controversial encounters between law-enforcement and civilians - the omnibus thread

I understand why Smapti’s position is that police, upon arriving at the scene, should pre-emptively shoot every person there, since any of them could be armed and any of them could go from slowly walking to lethally charging instantly and indeed since any of them could have Special Forces training giving them mad instant-kill skillz, police should fire dozens of rounds.

Anyone who argues otherwise obvious wants cops to die and society to fall.

Warning Will Robinson. Dr. Smith is creating a strawman.
