Now we have come full circle in The saga of Black Lives Matter vs. the Police. Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson, said a 43-year-old police officer, who has not been identified, was responding to a car crash Wednesday when a 28-year-old man who was involved in the accident struck her in the face, then repeatedly smashed her head against the pavement until she passed out. He said the attack went on for several minutes and that two others officers were injured as they tried to pull the suspect away, the Chicago Sun-Times reported.
Chicago Police Department Superintendent Eddie Johnson said the officer, a 17-year veteran of the force, knew she should shoot the attacker but hesitated because “she didn’t want her family or the department to go through the scrutiny the next day on the national news,” the Chicago Tribune reported.
The suspect was on PCP, and was finally subdued after officers Tasered and pepper sprayed him. This is the reverse effect. We have a police officer thinking of the slander she would have to endure by the media if she shot a thug, so instead she decides a near death experience by a felon is the better of the two. At this point this officer should retire, she is a victim of the system and not emotionally strong enough to do the job. And the sad part is , it is no fault of her own. What do you think?
