    So I don’t have all the information here and I hope someone does so we can learn from it. I don’t like that the site left out that the guy burnt down the park office and was threatening people with a machete… There is a lot of info missing.

      They just post that killings happened, not the events

      You aren’t supposed to take opinions from it

      As for the whole story, the investigation is ongoing

        The site is called killer cops which sets a certain tone. I get calling a cop that shoots and unarmed guy over a speeding ticket a killer. Situations like this are much different without enough details.

        The article also provides personal details about Frogg such as he was an outdoorsman and harvested food. This information is not relevant to the case, so why was it provided over information like he was armed and burning down the trailer? My assumption is this information is provided to influence your opinion in a certain direction.

          There was one here the other day where some cops saved a woman from being potentially raped (held in back of car with a knife and the person ran at the cops with it)

          I imagine if it was swaying anyone’s opinion then the site would have been banned

            I’m arguing about this specific article which you claimed isn’t really opionated. Maybe some of the other reports do better at being unbiased but leaving out case specifc details, like being armed, while including less important details meant to induce sympathy feels biased to me.

              Yeah, I was using another example of where they gave no details

              All they say is cop killed someone

              Talking about cops who are killers
