&#x27;...the mentality of US police: &quot;Shoot first, ask questions later.&quot;&#x27;<p>That&#x27;s a ridiculous and unfair generalization, especially for the present day.  Police collectively have hundreds of thousands (maybe millions) of encounters with civilians every day, in contrast with how many unjustified officer-involved shootings there are.<p>This isn&#x27;t the Jim Crow era South... or Hollywood.
