Can't they just bring in the military and use strong-arm tatics to take everything out? =\
No because that would be the government being bureaucratic asshats that are seeking to control the citizens with their clear blatant overstepping of power and would be considered too totalitarian.

It's like when Raoul Moat went batshit and went and killed a load of people because he was "pushed to the edge" by his cheating girlfriend or something. People all over England were calling him a legend because he was able to outrun the police, and when he was killed, people were UPSET, started calling him a hero. It was completely sickening.
The sense of authority in this country is down the toilet. They all hate, abuse and protest against the police force, yet still get upset and demand help when they are in trouble. The police should just disappear for a while to teach them all a lesson when the country goes to hell >_>
They are protesting because this was clearly a racist act on a black man that happened to be resisting arrest with an armed resistance.The White police should not have killed the man because he was innocently going to get his gun to forfeit to the police. He was a good man that would never do such a thing.
(That post was not to be taken seriously if you hadn't noticed).
This happened in the Oakland case too >.> a black man was shot by a white police officer and people "violently protested" because it was clearly an act of racism (especially when the person is reaching for something in his pocket when the police say put your hands behind your back and stop resisting arrest). IMO people only get shot when they deserve to get shot at.The case in Oakland being an exception because it was deemed an accident (police was reaching for his taser; wrong hand = gun). If the dude pulled an automatic weapon/loaded firearm, of course legal use of force was necessary in self-defense. And people in Oakland wanted the BART police to stop carrying guns altogether because it's a more peaceful solution and doesn't kill- because killing is unnecessary especially when you have to be within a certain range to have the taser actually hit. Make SOOOOO much sense to shoot someone with a taser when they have a gun.
