Lazy policing or state-sanctioned public execution?

No fucks given what this dude did...

What sort of "law-enforcement training" did this cop get that he saw fit to unload more than 10 rounds into a car that was driving AWAY from him. Who gives a shit if the car was stolen? Murder with impunity is a lazy-ass way to "police" at best. What is it that makes this murder more OK than one I might commit? The uniform? The "training"? The "thin blue line"? I have been put into mortal danger by Chicago cops on the road multiple times throughout my life but I never saw fit to unload an entire fucking mag. into their car for it.

Worse yet (and kevlar notwithstanding) MF cop apparently "feared for his life" while unarmed dude was RUNNING AWAY...so he shot him in the back. That's not a policeman, that's a state-sanctioned-and-paid public executioner with unlimited discretion who was too fucking lazy to continue pursuing the SUSPECT on foot.

No fucks given what that dude did. At best, discretion belongs to a victim alone (if there is one), at worst discretion belongs to a judge. Discretion does NOT belong to some lazy-assed, blue-supremacist's fear, opinion or trigger-happy proclivity.

From everything I saw it looks like a legal shoot. A vehicle is considered a deadly weapon. Did not see the last shot on the video so I am unable to comment on that but that first burst of shots at the beginning of the video were 100% legal
