We're the Only Ones Friendly Enough

An off-duty police officer who was shot to death in downtown White Plains early Friday evening appears to have been a victim of friendly fire...

Ridley was not in uniform...
I just can't figure out why "The Only Ones" would have assumed this particular man out of uniform to automatically be a threat...

I also can't figure out why some in the population buy into the disarmament con job, especially when noting how such practices have been employed in the past.

How unfortunate, both in the officers death, and that he went to a church where one of Sharptons'cronies assembled to worship.

His(Sharpton) name alone elicits rage and distrust across the boards of humanity. Shameless headline grabing bastard!

The difference between: attempted murderer shot and killed; and an officer just performing as trained IS A UNIFORM!

Yet, why should a uniform make any difference at all?

Watch any COPS episode and you will find that the officers are almost* always the one being the aggressors. They are trained to believe raising the level of violence keeps them in control of the situation.

It is funny how the private sector teaches those in control of the situation is the one asking question. The person babbling and screaming demands, (like police are trained to do), have absolutely no control WITHOUT the force of arms.

"...officers from a different department spotted him, and, under circumstances that remain unclear, opened fire and killed him."

Click on the link and look at the pictures. The circumstances are actually very clear.

It had absolutely nothing to do with 'friendly fire'. He had a gun, didn't toss it quick enough, and they killed him. Friendly fire is when it happens by mistake, collateral damage and the like, and not when the fire is intentional and spot on the mark. Someone, either the media or the police are making it out to be a mishap, and from what we know, it was nothing of the sort.
