If my eleven year old was killed by a cop for no good reason, I fear, like a few other parents here, that it would be game on. As citizens, we have lost control of our police departments. There is a good reason citizen review boards have been impaneled.
In the bolded;

There is the third dimension to this unfortunate tragedy that isn't getting the mileage it should. The growing police state.

Shall we discuss THAT, Lady and Gentlemen?
