And of course he will get away with it.
This time at an Alabama mall on Thanksgiving night. The legally-armed young man was gunned down by cop while fleeing his attackers.
By far the greatest factor that would affect my decision to carry a concealed weapon is how a cop would react when he found out. Some states require that police be immediately informed of the concealed weapon. How would the cop react in the moment? Would some primitive part of his brain coax him into taking this opportunity to commit murder, knowing he would get away scot-free?
There clearly must be an immediate reevaluation of the relationship between police and our Constitutional right to carry a self-defense weapon. More people than ever are exercising their right to carry a means of defense, and it is clear that many officers have no idea how to deal with it.
