| #7 It's agency policy there; there's gonna be a courtroom circular firing squad over this. We were talking about this in Long Beach here yesterday. |

| #6 I believe it was the non-lethal alternative to a number of situations like that late night after club police vs. druggie shooting some years back when 4 cops emptied their mags into a black dude -just to slow him down-, only after IIRC injecting 1.21 gigawatts. |

| #5 ALSO what the hell is police/Paramedics doing with the anesthetic Ketamine in the field? From my pitiful understanding, ketamine is a treatment excited delirium - a condition best described as getting too high on illegal stimulants and freaking out. Symptoms include agitation, aggression, confusion, pain insensitivity, superhuman strength, being hot to the touch, sweating, and rapid breathing. Agitation, pain insensitivity, superhuman strength - sounds familiar, eh? Paramedics *are* a sort of medical professional oriented towards providing first aid. This would include administering drugs like epinephrine for anaphylactic shock, or naloxone for opiate overdoses. I have heard a number of stories of police saving lives by administering naloxone so maybe that has become standard kit. |

| #4 Oh what a surprise... it is the Aurora police department again. They have a horrible reputation for being complete assholes in Colorado, with the Denver PD right behind them. Why is it always in the deep blue areas it seems we have this problem with the police? Hm.... |

| #2 I usually state behind LEO's, but based on reading the article and watching the video... I also would disagree with the DA who was stated in 2019 that he could not charge the officers . Parts like ....What happened next isn´t clear because all of the officers' body cameras come off together as they move McClain to the grass ALSO what the hell is police/Paramedics doing with the anesthetic Ketamine in the field? |

| #1 Really, no problem pointing them out as 'white cops'? If it were three black cops it would be all different? |
