[WhoIsNumberNone]

"A Volusia County Sheriff's deputy shot an unarmed man in the face while serving a drug warrant on Wednesday.

Deputies say Derek Cruice, 26, resisted arrest during the incident at his Deltona, Florida home. Cruice's friends, six of whom were at the house when a SWAT team entered, called the fatal shooting "murder."

At 6:32 a.m., Deputy Todd Raible, 36, fired one shot, hitting Cruice in the face as he stood inside the doorway, police told WFTV.
Cruice was pronounced dead a short time later at an area hospital.

"They were met with resistance and a shooting incurred," Volusia County Sheriff Ben Johnson told My News 13."

2. nothing says serve and protect like a home invasion.

With ski mask and automatic weapons and a no knock warrant.

The man shot was unarmed and only wearing shorts how threatening could he of been to a man with body armor and a gun.

3. Really

Why is it that all the cops have to say is that he was resisting and they think it gives them the right to use people as target practice.

4. This shit has to stop. The cops have become more militant and the prosecutors almost

never hold them to account. Even when the shooting is outright murder to any objective eyes.

I'm afraid that if citizens don't demand accountability and fewer psychotic cops from the civilian leadership, people are going to fight back in the streets. That will be good for no one, cops or the people in the streets, but it seems inevitable if we remain on our current trajectory.

5. I think the tipping point is getting near. All we need is a grieving parent, brother, or friend

to snap or have a terminal illness and nothing to lose and start taking out the uniformed killers of their son, brother, or friend.

I thought that was what happened in Pennsylvania a while ago with the two cops being shot at shift change.

6. What kind of training does it take to shoot and kill unarmed people.

Something is very wrong in America today. These young people coming back from war zones desensitized to death and killing. Ex-military should not be hired as "Peace officers" But, The RepubliCONS like hiring trained killers as Police. It just keeps getting worse.What will it take to stop the insanity of the RepubliCON Ideals that will kill us all.

7. Cops have become

Judge, jury and executioners. Its good guys vs bad guys... and there is no in between any more.
If you have a badge, you can shoot someone in the face, like their life never mattered at all, like they were subhuman trash.. this has got to stop.
