You know absolutely nothing of what happened or what he was doing in his room... and OBVIOUSLY he was a fucking threat because he was running around threatening people according to staff with a "butcher knife" and other objects. You think police live at the nursing home???? Or do you think someone called the police because there was a serious problem that they couldn't handle? The article says they were in riot gear. Why do you think that was? Riot Fashion week at the Old Folks Home where the police just happened to be anyway?
And although I understand a life of union membership has made you and the rest of the world in your eyes nothing but perpetual victims being perpetually abused and exploited, the simple fact is you know nothing about what happened. Police aren't exactly trained to leave a guy alone in a room that has been threatening the lives of others. If you had all the facts that made it out to be that the guy who was shot was trying to murder everyone and had a hostage, you still wouldn't care because in your unionized mind, he can only be a victim of The Man.
Furthermore, you know nothing of the circumstances of which they shot him with a non lethal round. It might have been to stop him from stabbing himself in the throat. There was clearly a lot going on that you know nothing about.
I love that you fucking idiots reasoned that the only obvious explanation is that police showed up to murder a 95 year old guy in front of the staff... and that there really are no other plausible explanations.
