Okay for the sake of argument let’s say it’s not bullshit. She does shout taser, she does seem genuinely shocked when she realizes it’s her gun... that’s a HUGE error for a “very senior” officer to make. So the defense is your people just can’t help using lethal force?
No matter how well trained they are, the panic they feel in the moment makes them reflexively kill, they can’t NOT do it? They’re so scared of a black person they unconsciously grab their gun instead of their taser? That’s what your saying?
Let’s say that’s not bullshit, it’s just as bad as doing it knowingly. Maybe even worse in a way. You definitely can’t reform that. There’s a horrific demonstration that no amount of training is enough.
