We're the Only Ones Hip-Shooting Enough

When police arrived minutes later, witnesses said, Becker dropped his handgun, raised his hands — and then an officer with a rifle shot him in the hip. [More]
But the important thing is:
No officers were injured.

" “They were telling my daughter that her dad was dead,” she said."

That is because they are part of the Vast Majority of Policemen who ware really good guys, doing the right thing. Not those few bad apples...

In reality, the cops came in and saw someone other than themselves bearing arms, and immediately thought, "Enemy! Enagage!". But, of course, they heroically made sure he had dropped his weapon first, so he couldn't shoot back.

Jack Yantis wasn't so lucky.
Meanwhile Ryan Zollman, who hired the perps, was reelected and is still sheriff of Adams County, ID.
