So... Here&#x27;s my thoughts on it. At first blush <i>how dare they</i>! But as I let this stew for a while and turned it over a few times, I&#x27;m arriving at a different conclusion, helped along by some of the insightful comments here.<p>Since the police <i>really are</i> doing this kind of thing in their heads anyways, what I see here is an opportunity for accountability. Did the man in body armor with the gun consult the magic number before he shot the kid on the playground with a toy gun? Or did he just get excited? Like body cams, I think this is actually something that could be used in favor of a more responsible police force than not.
