Similar reactions after the Las Vegas Police killed Erik Scott at a CostCo in 2010. Vegas Police have a reputation for being a little wound up, but who could blame them in that city? The gun community was universally outraged until the Tox Screen came back for high levels of Morphine and Xanax in Scott. It’s usually a good idea to reserve judgement until the shooting investigation is done.

Besides the Ferguson MO fiasco, we’ve had four recent police shootings in the Twin Cities that generated National reactions:

1. The Philando Castile shooting - Investigation revealed Castile did not follow orders and appeared to be reaching for his gun. Tragic, but the CCW guy screwed up. Black Lives Matter said it was murder and rioted.

2. The Justine Damond killing by Officer Mohamed Noor investigation revealed that Noor shot because he was startled by Damond’s sudden appearance during a night time response. Noor was “Fast tracked” to get Muslims on the Police Force by the Liberal Politicians, and he wasn’t ready.

3. The Jamar Clark shooting found Clark had assaulted an ambulance crew, and tried to steal the intervening Officers gun. Black Lives Matter said it was murder and rioted.

4. There is another shooting now awaiting investigation results where Police killed a man who was shooting into the air and ground in the city. The local press found a picture of the guy wearing a nice business suit and that’s all they show...The Guy was a common street thug, but they don’t show that.
