In Atlanta, there was another police shooting of a black man on Friday, June 12, more blaming of the police, and more lawlessness justified by community leaders, liberal politicians, and the news media. Monday morning quarterbacking is easy when objectivity doesn’t matter, and when emotional responses fit the political narrative.
The facts are these. The man was drunk in public, and he was driving intoxicated, and he fell asleep and obstructed a fast-food drive-through disrupting a private business. Then he resisted arrest and fought with the police, he tried to take their weapons, and he tried to flee. Other than that, he was not doing anything wrong.
