The Other McCain has another entry in the continuing saga, Crazy People Are Dangerous
The guy who got shot had a history of mental illness. There is bodycam video of when he was shot and killed.
The DA says self-defense. The family wants "answers." Their lawyer is (apparently) looking out for a payout, and a payday, from the city. The Police Chief, James Crayton, has not released the video, because the judge hasn't ordered it.
Does it strike you that Chief Crayton is demonstrating the serenity of a Christian holding four aces? He’s seen the video. He’s not afraid of anything. That speaks volumes about this case.
We shouldn't be reading these stories, but we decided in the 1970s that were not going to fund mental health, because of a movie, mostly.
As a treatment for acute psychiatric disorders, 124 grains of lead traveling at 1,000 feet per second is perhaps not the preferred medication.
