A homeless whom was obviously mentally ill was shot to death by Albuquerque police department members because he was camping illegally. He had been in a stand off with the cops for a few hours and was armed with knifes according to the officers. Meanwhile the officers were armed with assault rifles and shot him 6 times even though the suspect never made a threading move toward them.
The video is out there from the helmet can and it's pretty clear the guy was picking up his stuff to leave. He bent over picked up his backpack then picke up so e other stuff turning away and the cops opened fire on him. After he was already on the ground bleeding out, they shot him with a bean bag shot gun three times and tazed him.
The police department called it a justified shooting because during the 3 hour stand off they claim he threatened the cops lives...
This is the 22nd time since 2010 that cops in Albuquerque have shot and killed civilians.

NM is also the state where cops anally raped two people using doctors to search for drugs that were never found.
I'm very much considering skipping NM on my tour around this country.. Im in Texas now but I think I'll be going around New Mexico..
