Oversight board faults LAPD's Dorner deployment

[cofi]

And there are plenty of instances where civilians accidentally shoot and kill/injure innocent persons and are never charged.

It's never as simple as "too many bullets".

I agree

I haven't had the chance to read the full report yet, so please pardon my ignorance: What disciplinary action, if any, did the officers involved face? Were they criminally charged, administratively disciplined, or sued in civil court? If so, what were the outcomes?

By no means are any and all LEO's bad seed's, the problem is that bad seeds get away with it all too often.

Just how do you evaluate the frequency of occurrence in order to say "too often"? How often you think LEO shoots occur? What percentage of those do you think are bad shoots? Why do you think that many of them are bad shoots?

I can see the similarity...

Scum bag smacks head into cage sues department, a cop gets shit on. vs. 8 officers light up a truck because of a newspaper. What I see here is 1 LEO needs to find another job and the other 7 need to learn that when they are out with officer squirrelly they should confirm their target before letting lead fly.

wait, nope don't see the similarity, though I now understand your bias. ...and yes honest cops get a bad run of things because of scumbags being scumbags, but these dipshits are why police in general make me nervous, because it just takes officer squirrelly to get you killed.

Jesus... I'm not anti cop but all that comes to mind here is :

" what so they could have killed instead of wounded those two ladies and maybe got a few more innocents on the side?" ......

hit 7 houses and 9 other cars... Jesus.

However, they missed the barn....you know, the one with the broad side?

What is that Basic Firearm rule again?

Oh ya...

Be sure of your target and what is beyond it.
