I don't think folks are going to listen to the rationality of the Grand Jury's findings.
They found officers were within their rights to return fire inside the Taylor residence as they, despite the type of warrant issued, knocked and announced their presence. This was testified by a neighbor. Taylor's boyfriend was the first to fire and the officers immediately returned fire.
The part that's going to be hard for many to grasp is the officer that actually shot Taylor was doing the "correct" thing. The officer charged was not as his bullets went into other properties.
