Why does law enforcement "come after you" in obvious uniforms, with badges and identification displayed, from marked vehicles with flashing lights?Anyone coming after you would be smart to not allow you to see or know their movements, for the same reasons you want to see them. It's an advantage, from the first game of checkers we all know its best to take advantages away from opponents.
So that you know it isn't a thug trying to carjack you?
I don't think anyone here is suggesting that violating the laws of this nation, or the rules of the ATF is a good idea. I intentionally follow them, and advise others to do so. But believing law enforcement has a duty to enforce laws, does not mean that you can't critically examine/discuss tactics that resulted in the shooting death of a suspect. It seems fairly obvious that different tactics could have avoided the confrontation, the suspect would still be alive and we'd be criticizing a guy for dealing firearms without a license, rather than discussing the actions of an agency of the DOJ which serve to only make gun owners less trustful of how law enforcement will treat them.
