what do you guys think about this? basically, a man took his daughter hostage and on multiple occasions left his house, using the 19 month old as a human shield, and opened fire on SWAT in the middle of a neighborhood. one officer was hit but survived. the officers exchanged fire and hit the girl.
while its hard to deal with a tradgedy like this, i dont think we can blame the LAPD for the death of the girl, only her father, who was the one controlling the situation. procedure was followed correctly and i know killing the girl wasnt intentional. a lot of people are saying that it shouldnt have happened but they arent coming up with alternative plans of action that could have been taken. its hard to criticize police officers when you dont do their job day in and day out.
