The Mistakes of Military Cops
The Atlanta City Council is set to vote on a bill that would militarize the city's police force. The council originally said they needed about 33 million tax dollars, but now it could be as high as 100 million. A mother and her 20-year-old son were shot by an officer in their home after he mistook them for violent ex-boyfriend. "I don't know if I mean, they might be trained that way," says O'Brien of officers who shoot first when something spooks them.
