Like "Officer involved shootings."
- sicp-enjoyer 4y agoExactly.
- Ticklee 4y agoWell with officer involved shootings I can kind of understand the passive perspective, seeing as cops are not really acting on their own accord.
- khazhoux 4y agoI genuinely don't understand this comment. In the olden days, a news report would say "A suspect was fatally shot by a police officer." Now, they'll only say "A suspect was fatally injured during an officer-involved shooting." Which is like, yeah no kidding the officer was "involved" -- he pulled the trigger!
