All the training in the world isn't going to change who a person is. Some people are special - some people can have gunfire going off, bullets whizzing by their ears and still never forget their mission or their job. Other people, with the same level training, completely lose their crap. People are all different and will respond differently in these situations - it's why cops almost always get acquitted in trials. Because the law realizes humans aren't robots - you need to realize the same.

I forgot to say, I realize that people aren't robots and they make mistakes.
I already said I doubt the cops did anything illegal.  
But I think the law needs to change, and the training these guys get needs to change, and the tactics of the guys who send them out need to change.  All of you agree with different parts of what I'm saying.
What I'm not going to do is say that anyone was a "thug" who deserved what they got.
That's not true here.
