A specific case comes to mind where a police officer tried shooting a python in a tree... missed, and hit someone's kid in the head down the block.
Not so much as even a formal investigation brought against him to start with... it wasn't until people started rallying and complaining that they did anything to him.. and last I heard there was no official punishment.
When I said that anecdotal evidence was worse than no evidence, I was serious. The only thing worse than that is anecdotal evidence of a story that might have maybe happened one time.
Had to laugh when I saw this option. A trained competent stable policeman is a contradiction in terms.
Badge + gun == dangerous person not to be trusted.
This certainly sounds reasonable and measured.
Why would you imply anything but?
Because it's factually inaccurate?
