What other excuse? Guns are literally the main issue…

You can have the best police training programs in the world, but if the population is heavily armed and unregulated you’re still going to have ton of police shootings.

Of course they always say “thought we saw a gun”. Guns are so numerous they have to assume the worst else the chances of getting shot goes way up.

Maybe the police shouldn't use the presence of gun as an excuse to start shooting people? Especially in a country with more guns then people?

I’m sure police would love the idea of just getting shot first lol
