I know it's probably weird, but removing the personal element to killing another person is not something I like. It should always be a last resort, and if the personal element is removed I feel we will become more comfortable with killing. I know drone pilots have had PTSD and there is still someone pulling that trigger, but something about it being done from a position of safety takes away the ide that this use of deadly force truly is a last resort.
Agree.
But from what I am reading here and elsewhere this guy was worse because he killed cops. And they are more important I guess? I mean several people, not just on this board, have said he was going to get killed no matter what because of who he killed...not just because he killed. I find that an interesting take given that some others have said police need held to a higher standard because of their position of power and that idea seems to get knocked down because "they are only human".

Your anger and ego will always reveal your true self.
