Indianapolis officers responding to a car jacking accidentally shot the husband of the woman who called for help. The man had went outside in order to assure the safety of their home when police mistook him for the car jacker. With the attitude among the American police force I almost don’t have to tell you what happened next. Lets do the math, A black man, with a gun, at night, in police sights? Yea the officers opened fire. The homeowner was shot in the stomach but is believed to be in stable condition, thankfully. Witnesses have stated that the home owner never fired his weapon. The sarcasm in my tone is not for comedic effect. Its the voice within me expressing the frustration with police departments tactics. Stories like this are happening way too often in today’s society.

Its a sad day in America when you have to think twice about calling the police for help. Yes, accidents do happen. But accidents like this? Very easily avoidable with proper training. It sets another example that the police system and its training need to be restructured as it is already out of control.
