Imagine this: you’re at home, minding your own business with your wife and two small children, when an intruder makes their way into your home. Like a good father & husband, you pull out your legally registered firearm, confront the intruder and get them on the ground, while your wife calls the Police. Minutes later, the police show up, and despite your wife’s warnings to them, open fire on YOU.
WITHOUT WARNING.
SIX. FUCKING. TIMES.
Warning: This video/audio is a bit hard to watch.

Well, you know what, it’s the victim’s fault for looking mexican. Everyone knows that chubby mexicans cannot be homeowners, they should not carry guns (even legally), and definitely should not be married to cute, healthy, non-obese, articulate white women.
</sarcasm>
Fucking racial profiling.
The police officer was actually CLEARED of wrongdoing. WTF?? Where is fucking JUSTICE in this society? Where’re our vigilantes? Where’s the cold hand of veangance? I am so pissed right now, because this poor guy’s life is ruined for no other reason than the police fucked up (and admitted to doing so) and yet the police officer WALKS AWAY. Home to his OWN goddamn family. Because, of course, police officers value THEIR lives more than that of other citizens (law-abiding or otherwise).
This is fucking BULLSHIT.
My heart really goes out to the wife of the victim. Goddamn racist cops, man. Can you imagine if the homeowner was BLACK? Right now they’d be planning his funeral, because he’d have been “accidentally” shot TWELVE times, tazed, and set on fire for good measure. And he need not even be carrying a gun. It’d have been done just on principle.
Man, this shit will never end. It will NEVER end.

You’re right, it will never end. This is a terrible tragedy; a grave injustice. But life is not fair, bad people get away with murder (especially cops) all the time, and the innocent are routinely victimized. Racism is the number one sport in America.
