The result is that the police now enjoy unlimited reign in harassing, searching, and arresting drivers. Motivated by civil forfeiture laws that empower them to confiscate civilian property without charging the victim with a crime, the police have institutionalized the practice of conducting mass road stops as means of searching civilians for property to confiscate (a practice recently curtailed by a SCOTUS ruling, but not eliminated). Highway robbery has been legally sanctioned and encouraged by all branches of the federal government, so that state and local police forces can only accurately be understood is roadway pirates.
Its these type of instances where I have a hard time putting all the blame on the police. They are going off info that has been relayed to them by dispatch. If that info is incorrect, they have no idea. Not sure how to correct that. From the cops standpoint if you hesitate then you are dead.Yeah i remember that. The dude literally just walked out onto his front porch and was shot.
One cop fired the gun, but the porch was surrounded by other cops, at night, with flashlights shining in his face.Its these type of instances where I have a hard time putting all the blame on the police.

Imagine the confusion that man experienced before his death.
But yes, there really is no way to correct this sort of thing. It's a terrible trend that needs to stop.
FBI: Man Threatening Massacre Had 10,000 Rounds of Ammo
Days after mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton rocked the nation, FBI agents raided the home of an Ohio man who allegedly threatened to commit his own massacre. Inside, they found more than a dozen rifles and 10,000 rounds of ammunition, the FBI said.
Justin Olsen, 18, was arrested Monday for allegedly threatening to assault a federal law enforcement officer. He’s accused of making the threats on a meme website where he also allegedly discussed shooting Planned Parenthood locations, citing multiple mass murders involving far-right extremists.
Olsen allegedly made the threats on iFunny, a meme-sharing site where he used the name “ArmyOfChrist” and a picture of a medieval crusader as his avatar. (The crusades are a popular theme in some far-right Christian circles.) His account had more than 5,000 followers as of Tuesday morning before it was suspended.
An FBI office in Anchorage, Alaska flagged the posts, and the bureau continued to monitor them as they grew more specific, FBI spokesperson Vicki Anderson said.
