Another reason the LAPD is the worst PD in the nation

As the LA Times reported this morning, the LAPD shot and killed a 17-month old little girl in stand-off with an armed man.

The charges? Waving his arms and behaving aggressively.

Hmmm, seems serious enough that one not only ought to kill the suspect and a little girl, but perhaps everyone within a 100 yard radius.

The police spokesperson said, ''We showed a tremendous amount of restraint, but unfortunately the suspect's actions dictated this."

A tremendous amount of restraint? What is the proper amount of restraint that ones shows before shooting an innocent child?

Bratton was supposed to be the saviour of this department.

Take my word for it, nothing will clean up the LAPD except destroying it utterly and rebuilding from the ground up.

I believe APD's chief worked under former LA chief Darrell Gates. So it comes full circle
