Finally, a police killing we can all get behind.

    Sadly enough, i bet most of the digg community doesn't agree with you.

      Some of us don't accept what the news tells us are facts blindly and withhold judgment. Sadly enough, you don't.

        Elder the good majority of your comments seem to be direct assaults or "disagreements" of some sort (not just in this thread). Your comments fit into the very same profile you just described, only your positions seem to be the reverse of whatever the popular side seems to be on Digg.

        Could it be because I disagree with the vast majority of individuals on this site?

        I'll tell you what, I won't disagree anymore if that helps the masses.

        And lastly, with few exception, read through my comments. I don't attack or assault without regard. My comments have points and arguements, sadly I think I've given up on having open dialogue with the majority of people on digg.

        Normally I wouldn't reply but in this case, I just had to ask. Are you retarded?

        OK kingjam, now look at the cases of stupid or bad cops who overreact and pull the trigger for no good reason. Is it OK for them to have killed a person just because they wear a badge labeling them as police? I don't think so.

        How many cases of cops pull out a gun and start shooting at people that are just going about the day in a normal manner. None.

        Kingjam, Not sure what you mean by "normal manner". The world has seen plenty of incidents that involve people being shot or beaten by the police and yes, they were simply at the wrong place at the wrong time...doing nothing wrong. And, there is a huge number of police that allow their power to go to their heads, and hurt or kill because of ego. So to say "all" police killings are Ok, demonstrates your limit to see the world for how it really is.

      Judging by the number of diggs on Thrilltone's post you might want to rethink that "I'm so fucking smart and a big fucking know-it-all" stance.

        Because your contribution was some how better?

        Hey Ms. Magee,

        Before you throw in your 2 cents you should know what you're talking about. The above comment is the tail end of a long thread.

        I love armchair quarterbacks making the calls while they stew in the juices of their own ignorance.

      Based on how much you're comment was buried, I'd have to say much of digg doesn't agree with you.

    Assuming the news is accurately reporting the facts, which is very likely not the case. Perhaps someday cops will kill you and the news will tell us they had a good reason.
