- rosser 11y ago...which means they should get shot by a cop? I don't think that's how "criminal justice" is supposed to work.
- justwannasing 11y agoNow you're saying that is the norm. You're basing your statements on the internet scream, HN and Reddit and not reality. You're basing your statements on one-off happenings as it happens everywhere. These are things no engineer would hear of but you see statements like yours on HN all the time.
- rosser 11y agoNo, I'm not. We're specifically talking about the ~1000 people per year shot by police. You can't suddenly change the context of the discussion and tell me that my (apparently formerly) in-context comments are trying to paint some exaggerated, false picture of the entirety of citizen-police interactions. I'm very well aware that there are countless millions of citizen-police interactions every year that don't result in people getting shot. So? We weren't talking about them. Let me put it this way: is it your position that in every single one of those thousand-odd cases, the person who was shot deserved it? If not, how many of them did?
