“It’s becoming a disturbingly familiar scene in America - mentally unstable cops”

Why even bother reporting this?

Fairfax County officer fatally shoots man during fight at homeless shelter.

The gun happy Fairfax County police shot and killed another citizen. Just like the killing of the unarmed John Geer in Springfield earlier this year, nothing will become of this.  




This is as far as this story is going to go. In the end, once again, the Fairfax County cops will investigate the Fairfax County cops and find the Fairfax County harmless in the incident.

The news says that the department’s Criminal Investigations Bureau and an Internal Affairs unit are investigating the incident….so what?   The results will never be made public even though the public has paid the cops ($300 million) for those results.

The Fairfax County cops bank on the fact that the electronic media probably won’t report the story and if they do it will get, perhaps, 15 seconds of air time, and, since TV news doesn’t do follow stories, the cops are safe on that front. 

The print media, which has done an excellent job holding the Fairfax County Police accountable for their butchering, could be a problem for the cops on this, so Internal Affairs, whose primary job is not to establish the truth but to protect the department from bad publicity, will stall the issue for a few years and eventually even the print media will forget about it.

The County’s elected officials cower at the thought of confronting the cops and won’t dare raise the issue, besides; the guy they killed this time was homeless and probably mentally ill, so he was of no value to elected officials. Think we’re wrong about that?  Watch and see because not one of them will raise a squeek over this.


In the end, once again, the Fairfax County cops will investigate the Fairfax County cops and find the Fairfax County harmless in the incident. But that’s an old story and not really relevant. 

The real story isn’t in the cop’s willingness to gun people down. The real story is in the departmental culture of contempt that tells the cops its okay to shoot first and think later.
