totally agree, *but*... isn't that a get-out for the police here? A job like that, you need to cross all the i's and dot all the t's.. the victim here is the kid, not the parents, and it's obvious the kid has shit for brains parents, but any asshole can be a parent. The same isn't meant to be true for cops.

One doesn't negate the other where responsibilty lies... because the parents were fuckwits, doesn't mean the cops should get a pass for being fuckwits also, and like I say, if anything they should know better. A not-like-for-like example is of an adult knowing better than a kid, but hopefully you get my drift.

If a person takes their kid to some shithole ghetto area and the kid gets shot, although the parents would be dumb cunts for doing so, the ultimate blame would be on the shooter. A valid defense wouldn't be 'well, take a kid into the ghetto at 1am on a saturday morning and what do you expect' (as much as the point itself would be valid).
