This case was bound to cause disappointment. It's going to turn off all the law and order folks- who don't like the idea of robbers tussling with officers over their guns. There are plenty of abusive cases in which 1. a criminal was NOT involved, 2. the dead person was not intimidating, and there was no question of reasonable fear on the part of the officer and 3. the violence perpetrated by the officer was clearly excessive. I have no idea why so many otherwise sensible liberals got suckered in on this case. But there you are. Nothing to be done about it now.
