An 'Unarmed' Young Man Was Shot,,,
Was that the important thing? that he was unarmed?
Is the cop really supposed to fight back with his bare
hands, even if he feels his life is in danger, because, if he uses his gun and if the guy he's trying to arrest is
unarmed, then it wasn't a 'fair' fight? (By the
way, what if the 'policeman' is a policewoman? Still not allowed to shoot? SHE
also has to 'fight fair?')
Well, if the cop is the only one with a gun, then it might not be a fair fight but....IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE A 'FAIR' FIGHT. An arrest is not a duel. It's not
Man from La Mancha. The cop is supposed to
win. You're supposed to give up. You're being arrested. Tomorrow, you'll have a
lawyer and then there'll be the judge.
Too often we see what happens when the other guy is armed. That's
the way it will always be if the bad guy has a gun. Nobody reads a cop his
Miranda rights. It's just, BANG!
