There have been several cases, over the past few years, in Omaha, where the police pull over someone in a stolen car, said someone proceeds to reach for a gun, or something with the appearance of a gun, police fire and said someone is killed. Unfortunately, this always seems to happen in the black community, thereby causing an uproar within that community. You can always count on same three black civic leaders to cry racism, every time...no matter what. I don't really know what the police are supposed to do in a situation like that.
I suppose that one important lesson to learn is; you driving around in a stolen car at 3:00 in the morning + you failing to obey a police officer's instructions + you reaching under your coat = you getting shot by the police. Seems simple enough to me.
