(23,720 posts)you and I both know that. Like I said, there were two women in that truck. There were witnesses. It didn't stop anyone from shooting up the truck nor the other car they ambushed. Those two women wern't shooting at the police when they were fired upon, their vehicle just vaguely fit the description. There was no attempt to cut them off, pull them over or order them out of the car. I believe it was something like 60 bullets that were fired into the truck from behind. That alone shows what law enforcement's intent was.
Judge, jury and executioner is the role law enforcement played in this tragedy and that makes me uncomfortable in a country where I was taught that people are supposed to be presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law
