Atlanta Shooting

Also, break a law = killed without trial, isn't America. Well, it's not supposed to be anyway.

Be pretty tough to have a trial if law breakers can freely run away without any repercussion.

The big concern there is that law breakers with a handicap or other medical issue will be clearly treated unequally and that's just not fair. Can't have that.

I should be more clear when responding to Bob. I'm not talking about this Atlanta shooting. But the idea in general that all you have to do is not break laws to avoid police contact is generally false.

ETA: Obviously confusing, given that it's in the Atlanta shooting thread.

What about the aspect of compliance vs. resistance effecting the outcome if you do find yourself in an interaction with LE? Do you feel that that is generally a fallacy as well?
