    The Denver Police Protective Association, the union representing Denver officers, previously shared the following statement in regards to the filing of criminal charges against Ramos: “To charge this officer with a felony crime, jeopardizing his career and liberty for acting as he was trained and in the public interest, with no malice, ill intent or lack of concern, is unfortunate and sad.”

    So he was trained to shoot into crowds?

    He was shooting into the crowd with no ill intent or lack of concern?

    What??

      It is apparently in the public interest that American policemen shoot into crowds. For that, they don’t seem to do it very often at least.
