The Michigan police officers who fired their weapons 47 times, fatally shooting a homeless man after a confrontation over stolen coffee, won’t face federal charges, Rawstory reports.

Federal authorities including the FBI and the U.S. Department of Justice announced earlier this week that there wasn’t enough evidence to charge the six Saginaw police officers.

“After a thorough investigation, federal authorities have determined that this tragic event does not present sufficient evidence of willful misconduct to lead to a federal criminal prosecution of the police officers involved,” the agencies said in a joint statement viewed by Rawstory.

I don't have cable and I don't listen to radio news. So I guess I'm just shooting into the wind...

(I'm pretty much relegated to Netflix and DVD use....but you wouldn't believe how much work I get done around the house)

Being mentally ill in the presence of an armed cop is a bad idea.

Except it's not an idea.

Surrounding a mentally ill guy and screaming at him--is that a good idea?

You're right.

It was a real Toad sticker too.

Probably bigger than the one DJ carries.

Certainly worthy of a 47 round barrage from six officers.

I don't remember ever seeing Marshall Dillon shoot an unarmed man.

Even the bad guys usually insisted on their victims having a gun.

Only the worst of the worst would shoot someone that was unarmed.
Your the one that wants this country unarmed. So if your rant in this thread was right do you think the police would act in a different manner if we all can be armed?

I do....
