Why, in America, can you use the police as death squads? How is this possible? Do they not check that the situation is legit before they charge in and murder everyone?

They usually, do, but if they don't, there's very little reason to believe there'd be any real punishment forecoming for a variety of reasons. Mostly, D.A.'s offices are dependant on a good relationship with the police in order to do their job and get re-elected, so criminal charges against police officers tend to just fizzle.

Also, cops are trained that all non-cops are trying at all times to murder them, and if you show a moment of hesitation or mercy you will die.

Get a better adblocked (like ublock origins)

From the site

quote:

Barriss, who has a history of swatting, was arrested in October 2015 and charged with making two bomb threats to ABC7 (KABC-TV). The first one happened on September 30, 2015, when the channel's studios in Glendale, California, were evacuated and searched by police.

quote:

"The argument can be made that the police would never have showed up if I hadn't made the call, however, I don't believe I'm the only guilty party involved in this whole incident, considering I was contacted and, you know, almost instructed to swat, and taunted to swat," he said.

Hmmmz yes I suppose if you look at it from a skewed angle you could interpret the situation that the police would not have showed up if the call had not been made but that's merely a theory.

With the swatting thing...what's up with people refusing to assign blame to multiple parties? I see plenty of "the cop murdered an innocent unarmed man" and plenty of "the swatter's prank led to death, he's culpable for that"; but relatively few people saying both bear responsibility for it.

I don’t see that at all (except in this thread) but I see a lot of people rushing to this assumption

I guess what I don't understand (I'm British, so I don't know if my bad teeth and terrible taste in food are getting in the way of comprehension) is how the situation escalates from "anonymous phonecall" to "stormtroopers kicking a door in, guns blazing" without seemingly any steps in between. It seems like if these were the responding officers in Die Hard, the movie would have been over about five minutes after John McClane first radioed in a call. The cops in action movies are more discrete and sensible than the real thing.

I mean the cops were told that there was a murder/hostage situation. so they go to the house and do the whole die hard sit outside with guns thing but then the guy who owns the house walks out to see what's happening. now the cops assume that this isn't a hostage and so he shoots. in die hard the bad guy stays inside the building

D'awww imagine the little snake badge. Ducking cute.

But yeah it says something about this country when we're kinda like "Oh, a bear? Well if I have to choose between a bear that might be hungry and pissed or inviting a cop I don't know into my house...guess I'll take the bear."

I mean, over a thousand people die from cops a year. 2-3 people die a year from bears.
