We're the Only Ones Frenzied Enough

CBS4 News has learned a total of 23 officers fired a total of at least 377 rounds. [More]

And both men they killed were unarmed?  And one of them "had committed no crime"?  And "Bullets were sprayed everywhere. They hit ... other cars in the lot, fence posts and neighboring businesses. They blasted holes in a townhouse where a 12-year-old dove to the ground for cover and a four month old slept in his crib [and] two Miami Dade police officers were hit as well"?

See, that's the difference between trained professionals, whom we can trust with guns anywhere and everywhere, and say...you.

read the article closely, they're more concerned with officer's shooting each other, then with officers shooting unarmed men, or people's homes, or childrens bedrooms.

None this is about public safety, it's all officer safety.

Looks like those officers matched their Cleveland, Ohio, brethren and raised them 240 bullets in the "kill 2 unarmed people game" ...

Reminds me of the cluster that was Boston. These are the highly trained professionals the gun banning groups always praise and cite as models
