[QUOTE]Originally posted by Omega: [QB] [i]why are people surprised when there's a riot?[/i] Who's surprised? We're condemning it, not surprised by it. [i]Mr. Roach tried to arrest him, Mr. Thomas evaded capture. Even though Thomas was unarmed, Mr. Roach decided deadly force was required and shot him. That's inexcuseable, no matter what.[/i] Not true. He could have physically rushed the police officers. He could have tried to attack a bystander, if any. There ARE excuses for shooting unarmed people, if they are or appear to be threats. Since you don't know whether he was a threat to the officers or any bystanders, you do not know the entirety of the situation, and are therefore in no position to judge the propriety of the police officers' actions.
