This person's ignorance is appalling!
For anyone not in law enforcement the photo below may seem harsh but to those who dedicate their lives to protecting the public, pointing a firearm at them is not an issue to be discussed.
We expect the IIO to investigate unbiased.
Our condolences to the family, friends, students and staff.
Totally agree with this post. Anyone who wants to criticise an officer for acting in this manner when someone points a firearm at them needs a wakeup call. Scores of children have died having had access to a firearm and pulled the trigger. This nonsense about talking the suspect down is unrealistic.
