It makes sense to be humble in the presence of conflicting accounts. The White Plains public safety commissioner declared this a “warranted use of deadly force”; the shooter was later put on modified assignment. Mr. Chamberlain, in the commissioner’s telling, had withstood electric charges, grabbed a butcher knife and charged the officers.
It's the new normal, everyday humdrum story. The message: be afraid of everything. Wait until they roll out the drones, and the miniature quad-rotors.
To protect and serve, indeed.

Sweet. Land of the free, home of the brave.America’s newest college major may well be Drone Studies.
Amid a worldwide boom in unmanned aerial vehicles, a handful of U.S. colleges have begun offering classes and even four-year degrees for students looking for jobs in the fast-growing field where even newcomers can earn six-figure salaries.
Jeb Bailey, 28, who has taken every drone-related course at Northwestern Michigan College, said one of his fellow students at the Traverse City, Mich., school recently landed a job operating unmanned aerial vehicles for a private military contractor overseas. “He got like 0,000 per year,” Bailey said. “And he didn’t even finish his associate’s degree.”
