Unless they can prove he knew the 6YO was in the car and deliberately aimed for him in this case I think he should be punished for negligent homicide.

Did you ever actually read Judge Dredd comics? They showed the tragic backstory of citizens driven to crime all the time. It only served to emphasize just what a cold, unfeeling person Dredd really is.

Cops are public servants, service involves sacrifice. The cop should be willing to die in the interests of peacefully serving a warrant, not cause a dangerous car chase and blindly fire .40 hollow points into a six year olds body shredding his tiny internal organs so some dude doesn't get away with owing the state a couple hundred bucks. Cops should get paid like offshore oil drillers but they shouldn't be able to take a life and they should be punished for any crimes they commit 1000x what a normie would get.

:agreed: right up to the point of not being allowed to take a life. I think that is an unreasonable restriction.

It is right and ethical to take a life in self defense or defense of others and a system that would forbid a police officer from using lethal force against a person about to harm an innocent is not a just system.

I want to know how the police got into a situation where they were all on foot directly behind a dude in a car who had enough space to reverse quickly enough to run over and kill the cops. And how shooting the guy would make the car stop going backwards instead of just stepping out of the way. Don't they normally box in cars that are running from them? Like, park directly against the car so it can't go anywhere instead of assuming that the suspect is finished driving.

And obviously crime dad isn't in the right here or anything. Just because the cops are retarded doesn't mean the dad isn't retarded too. Somehow the dead autistic kid ended up being the smartest person in the situation by getting killed instead of having to listen to arguments about American police training and tactics and their apparent readiness to use firearms to solve most problems.

Well 1. a cops life is worthless and 2. it's been established by the supreme court that cops have no obligation to defend your life so all your points are moot and irrelevant

We're not talking about current cops we're talking about the cops in the society you described. You said yourself they should be treated like public servants and paid like offshore oil drillers.
I agree they should face stiffer penalties for breaking the law and that the lives of citizens should come first, but I disagree that they should never be allowed to kill.
Also the supreme court ruling is neither here nor there. Just because a cop is not obligated to defend your life doesn't mean a cop is wrong to defend an innocent from harm.
