      This was in hellhole Arizona so he might get actually paid. See: pig who murdered Daniel Shaver

      In August 2018, Brailsford was reinstated by the Mesa Police Department… The department agreed to reimburse Brailsford for medical expenses related to his post-traumatic stress disorder – the result of his shooting of Shaver and the resultant criminal trial.

    “might”?! A person with this mentality should never even be allowed near firearms!
    This is the kind of asshole who shoots someone at a routine stop for coughing.

    The victim is white so of course this hasn’t been turned into a huge deal.

    The media won’t exploit it, and no one is going to protest over it.

    The idea of police reform died a few years ago when certain groups wanted to turn it into a race issue and only focus on the blacks that get mistreated by police and minimize the mistreatment of other races by police.

    Remember when some of us were saying that “ALL lives matter” and we would be attacked as being supposedly rAcIsT when all we wanted was for ALL police victims to get their justice? Yeah, well the way that the BLM movement died down is a direct result of not being inclusive for all victims and instead turning it into some race-baited bullshit that exclused others who were simply trying to help.

    Congrats, you asswipes, you got exactly what you deserve - a world where cops have even more power than they ever did before.
