In absence of a 'Daily Cop Executions' Forum
NC Trooper shoots/kills Deaf manFrom source linked at top of above summary: Charlotte, NC — A community and family is mourning the loss of Daniel Kevin Harris, whose life was taken this week by a State Trooper who apparently fears sign language. Harris, who is deaf, was gunned down in front of his house. Ummm, FEARS.. sign language ???

Nearly every day I'm reminded why I left NC in 1986.

More details. It's more complicated than first described.
Charlotte ObserverBased on the audio released Tuesday by state troopers, that explanation seems unlikely. In his radio dispatches, Saunders describes a chase down I-485 that reached speeds of up to 100 mph, the mile markers whipping by. He reports twice trying to stop Harris’ Volvo, first by strategically ramming the vehicle, then attempting a “rolling road block” later in the chase. Still no excuse for shooting to kill!

Mimesis also had a link re this particular snuff-job,
reiterating (as read elsewhere) that, per a witness: "The cop fired almost immediately on exiting his [Urban Assault Vehicle.]"
Yess, the USSC's aim does seem to be consistent with the Scalia/Scalito cohort's ongoing social war with that pesky 99%-uppity-minority. Well, many already realize that the Court labors to maintain at least a thin-majority of batshit-crazies, in perpetuity.
Did you note in the Wiki "contagious shooting" essay, re Kent State: exactly who fired first, what ensued next? (I'd not heard of the ID-ing of the Pecksniff Sgt. Myron Pryor.)
Maybe All of This follows if.. speaking of a tribe wherein: few actually reach Adulthood, (well after the-age-of) and the kultur is so violent that random shootings and other weapons snuff so many who just never got old enough. Yeah, that would explain. [even without looking at some of the horrific Stats of the Kleptocracy.)
And just when we Need Them the mostest: neither Kurt nor George are still around to explain to the sleepwalkers that they Are asleep. Circus maximus. I sure wish they'd just Told Us tykes: we were going to dwell within a National nuthouse for the duration; all those academic tests about logic, reason n'stuff were just--fervently wishful--fairytales.
You Bastards!
