Columbus, OH police officer fatally shoots 15 year old Black girl

[Hammy]

Glad to see everyone here is trying to live in their own little self deluded corner ignoring that yes, race was a determinant in the cops actions here. You don't see white active shooters or armed suspects after violent incidents being taken out, yet their first instinct is shoot to kill if the suspect is black--as tends to be their response, armed or not.

And as I've said before, eliminate use of live rounds. That way, if there is a threat it goes to the courts, if it's over use of force or an "accident" people still don't lose their lives, and these situations would no longer end the way they do.

That’s... not true?

    This is 7 times in the month of April alone a white person has been shot dead by police in the United States. Do you get your information from Twitter?

Notice these all appear to involve the suspect directly threatening officers themselves.

So... cops should stand idly by if people are threatening to kill others, and not the officer themself?

At that point, they are literally useless.

My point is this IS what they do if the suspect is white and that there is no consistency in how they handle situations, other than they handle them differently with black suspects compared to whites.

And again, this would be far less of an issue if non-lethal rounds were required for street police--save the live rounds for SWAT and bomb squad raids.
