How about: day-to-day activities are funded by taxpayers but if you're found wilfully negligent; corrupt, etc. the perps pay out of their own pockets? That seems like a happy compromise I could get behind.
It's not justifiable. They could have incapacitated her. So many options which would have allowed them to take control of the situation without lethal action.
With a will, there is a way.
Today, the world has gone mad. Humanity is something in short supply.
And why not? Clearly 'might is right' is ironic - what other authority does one group have to dictate rules of conduct? Particularly when they are unwilling to abide by those rules themselves and are in control an army of murderous sociopaths with badges and guns?
It's all over the world. Those 'in power' by which I mean those with a monopoly on force are out of control. One only needs to look at youtube to see an endless stream of corruption, lies, violence, murder by police.
How are we as citizens supposed to put our trust in those who are prone to violent abuse of power which they later collectively lie about until video evidence comes out to show the extent of their lies?
Presumably they disconnected her Facebook so that the world would never know what was really happening.
These corporations should be starved out until they start putting their users first.
"I just wanted people to enjoy a night out in my bar, without being interrupted by their phones," he said. "So rather than asking them not to use their phones, I stopped the phones working. I want you to enjoy the experience of going out."
"It seemed like a good idea at the time but I'd underestimated people's desire to avoid each others' company", Mr Tyler said, looking back to last year's decision which led to his bar's financial woes.

The shilks appear to have hijacked this thread.
Feel free to comment on the governments of the world uniting in overeach against their own citizens.
Let's not forget that Texas teaches creationism in schools.
Enforced 'democracy', cheap fuel, fast 'food', movies and baseball?
I would say the world's people need to band together against the governemental-authority-overeach types.
My bluetooth-powered ad-blocker is almost complete.
Agreed. How do we make that happen?

Option four) The investigators have been paid to find nothing and the whole thing is for show.
Etc...
It must be nice to be shielded from consequences. They're told to pay but the taxpayer pays. Awesome.
"Oooh, make 'us' pay some more. Ouch" the commissioner commented after the heating.
Yep, we need meta insurance. Oh wait.
To keep those on the line between honesty and criminality from straying across without effort - like a fence.
Only 75%
Omg. It's almost as if their interest ends at getting your money. Who'd have thunk?
Please link us to the fb video evidence of her having a shotgun whilst alive...
Those with the monopoly on violence, intimidation, corruption, hypocrisy etc. have 'authority'. Didn't you get the memo?
So, if I want to download Linux ISOs, I should use Linux?
Really? Recent video evidence seems to disagree.

The will of the people? Hahaha. Right. Because the people write these documents to demonstrate their interests.
Will you hook us up with a link which describes how your police are allowed to kill anyone they choose without penalty?
Is there evidence she had a shotgun whilst alive?
Human brain may have no benefit, anecdotal evidence finds.
