Then go ahead and prove it wrong as opposed to going cop-out because you wish that you could?

I'd like to see Justice done, but I know there's little hope of that.

I know how these things work.

Like that poor black dude in New York that got 41 rounds pumped into him by four cops because he was reaching for his wallet to show some ID.

If those cops got off, I have no doubt this one will too.

Ah.

So you're going with notoriously unreliable eyewitness testimony, from an individual with everything to gain, regarding an incident that happened in seconds, where he admits he spent the bulk of it running away, occurring (science!) within thirty-five feet from initial encounter to shooting, where he tries to tell us what the officer saw/thought?

Oh yeah, he hasn't been coached at all...

And you're going with the killer's version.

No, you're the one that claimed the cop had to shoot him because he was a menace to society, so you go ahead and make the case for that.

How did they even find three Potter?

I mean they're all street thugs.

1. That's quite a leap.
2. You're getting good at that.

Being said, it's not always wrong to kill someone, it's merely always bad.

If I have fire shots from my car because you're in it with me? Uninvited? It's not "wrong."

Assaulted a cop whilst resisting arrest.
