Only in America.

I can't believe what I think I just saw.  It wasn't easy to follow, but - but - -----   I hope it is only in America and please God it doesn't happen any more there.

I've a horrible feeling it happens all over the world.

Any chance it is a set-up to sensationalise?

Did the police officer think the victim posed a threat to him?

Difficult to understand what we're seeing.

[ToraToraTora]

well the plod has been charged with 1st Degree murder so I'd say not.

[ToraToraTora]

real the link sandy, it covers it in detail.

Could never happen here. 

There's no chance of armed police (or the unarmed variety, for that matter) turning up following the report of a burglary.

Sorry...but what a ***...

I hope he rots in jail. Most horrific thing I've read in a while. I can't even look at the footage.

Would you even bother calling the cops in America?, especially if you're black.

You'd be safer fighting it out with the intruder.
