Smile Policing American style

A true story from Florida:

Some "dirtbag" in Polk County Florida who got pulled over in a routine traffic stop ended up "executing" the deputy who stopped him. The deputy was shot eight times, including once behind his right ear at close range. Another deputy was wounded and a police dog killed.

A statewide manhunt ensued. The low-life was found hiding in a wooded area with his gun. SWAT team officers fired and hit the guy 68 times.

Naturally, the media asked why they shot him 68 times.

Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd, told the Orlando Sentinel: "That's all the bullets we had!"

Fair play to them and their tactics in this case.

Someone from the PC brigade will sue for his human rights abuse. Hopefully they'll get shot too

Who makes that decision? The police proved not too long ago that it certainly shouldn't be them.
