The very first robot detonated killer bomb was used to end the life of the prime suspect in the ambush shooting of Dallas police officers on duty at an otherwise totally peaceful protest rally last night.
The police chief explained that the suspect was holed up in the parking garage, and after complaining about the recent killings by white police of two blacks, apparently said that he wanted to kill whites and especially white policemen.
Since negotiations with the police specialists broke down, to end the totally secure standoff, they simply sent in a robot with a bomb and declared that "the robot detonated it's bomb" as if the robot was a policeman and that action was justified!
This astonishes me. More so since no news commentator has seen fit to cost the morality of such extrajudicial killings. To me, it is highly suspicious that the police themselves were adamant that the fellow should not have the luxury of a trial or a further platform for his speech against the police seemingly hunting blacks as if their lives did not matter.
Has anyone heard any debate on this. Are we to allow police departments to end standoff a by simply blowing up the suspect when there are other solutions, such as simply codon ing off the area and waiting him out?
Am I alone in this, or is this, in itself, rotten too!
