The sacrifice of Kim Potter is the price we pay to maintain a civilized society

101. She literally killed someone completely unnecessarily

That's a crime, she committed a crime, therefore she is a criminal. (What do you mean by "in the traditional sense" anyway?)

If she's ever allowed to carry a gun again, she absolutely IS a threat. She's proven she's a pretty damn dangerous threat to young Black men with expired tags and a forbidden air freshener. If he'd had a burned out taillight she'd probably have shot him five times.

It's not a "sacrifice," it's justice. She committed manslaughter, and she should do the time for it just like any other person who commits manslaughter. Injustice would be allowing her to walk because of cop impunity (which happens FAR too often). The problem isn't one cop going to jail for killing someone, it's that cops facing justice at all is so rare. We don't have a civil society really - if we did, cops would not be above the law and not constantly get away with things that would rightfully send anyone else to prison for a good long time.
