This couldn't be more wrong. Despite the existence of qualified immunity, the Texas police still cowered like cowards, and are using qualified immunity to shield themselves from the lawsuits of the families whose children they failed to protect.
- Asooka 3y agoEven without qualified immunity, the police in question would not face any charges, as they have no duty to protect anyone from anything.
