I mean, this thread will only show the bad.

The recent shooting in Chicago where they unloaded 90 something rounds into a guy who shot at them first.

It's a 2 sided coin
The circumstances of that shooting were somewhat suspect as well, at least from the body cam footage I've seen. This was not a normal stop. It was an unmarked SUV pulling across the road in front of the guy's vehicle, and it was packed full of guys in basically civilian clothes with some tactical gear that said police on it. Allegedly they pulled him over for not having a seat belt on. He had tinted windows so it was kind of difficult to see if he didn't actually have it on or not. Anyway, they piled out of their vehicle and immediately draw down on this guy. They demanded he roll his window down, which he initially did, but when they demanded him to roll his other window down, he must've decided he wasn't having any of it anymore. They immediately try to get into his vehicle to pull him out of there. Keep in mind, this is supposedly over not wearing his seat belt, and they're already pointing guns at him. So something seems off about this - the police are not being honest about why they pulled him over and acted this way.

Why am I coming to the defense of a potential scumbag gangbanger? Well how often have we lamented how police dressed just like this busted down someone's door to serve a no knock warrant on what could be the wrong address and end up murdering the people who live there because they grabbed a gun and might even have fired shots at people he or she might have thought were home invaders?

So the car was his. He was already on parole for gun charges and they ran his plates and got something saying maybe a warrant or something.

It definitely isn't a seat belt violation that's for sure, but he was a felon who they assumed still had a gun.
Turns out they were right.

The shooting is justified however.

And the police still lied.
That is true.
The kid was no innocent and started shooting.

They at least gave the body camera to show the cops didn't shoot first, which was the maim argument that he was an unarmed black guy that got lit up 90 something times.

Iirc the family is suing the police, so we should be able to know more in the future?

Your not wrong they can be replaced the problem is any post revolution government has a whole lot of shit they need to do and its just easier to keep security forces in place to handle other pressing needs.
I mean generally the first thing you want is control of the security forces so either you fought them or they supported you.

The few times where it would not apply would be an internal coup where one group of elites oust another group of elites and the mechanism for control is the same. A coup is different from a rebellion.
