    The police that are suppose to be professionals are obviously not trained in being proactive, know our civil rights, not really trained to shoot a gun, no understanding that their methods of restraining someone is to allow enough time to handcuff them or tie their legs if necessary. Remember their oath of serving and protecting the citizens not serving and protecting themselves. Nighttime warrants when people are sleeping should not ever happen and no knock warrants should be illegal.

    Don't get me wrong we need the police but it is also true that their training manuals requirement improvement. People need to feel they can trust the police and this trust has been eroding for a very long time now.

    What do we need to know. White cops gunned down a black woman who was just minding her own business, hanging out with a new boyfriend who brought his gun to her apartment just so he could clean it.

    Hang them all. Nail them to a cross in the middle of town. Douse their living bodies with gasoline and light it afire.

    White cops shoot black women every single day for no reason known to man.

    Barb my dear. Lets role play here. You are a police officer serving a warrant against a known dangerous felon. No one tells you the lady of the house kicked him out and took up almost immediately with another person armed in her apartment. You knock and announce (this has been verified by several witnesses). You go through the door and immediately someone takes a shot at you. OK. Do you now say, "Oh wait, we made a mistake, he's is in fear of his life and just protecting his girlfriends apartment. Lets lay down our guns and let him take more shots at us. Or do you do the reasonable and prudent thing and shoot back. Bear in mind the warrant was also for Ms Taylor so you did not know if she had a gun or not. At what point are the police obligated to not defend themselves?

    Nighttime warrants happen because that is the best time to catch someone unawares and more docile and less likely to put up a fight and therefore can be taken without incident.
