MURDER

I have just watched the newly released video taken during and after the police shooting of Keith Lamont Scott in Charlotte, North Carolina.  It was murder, pure and simple.  I have no doubt the officer who killed Mr. Scott will eventually be exonerated.  This is an awful country.

Heart-breaking. The police don't listen to his wife at all. What must it be like to watch your husband murdered in front of your eyes while you try to warn police that he has a brain disability?

Chilean police are brutal bullies, but for some reason they don't kill as many innocent people when they stop and search them as U.S. police do. I'm not sure why, perhaps better training.
