Video of Laquan McDonald being shot sixteen times by officer Jason Van Dyke was just released, and my mom saw it and was disturbed by it. Van Dyke is being charged with 1st degree murder after a long period of the police attempting to suppress the video and lie about the events that led to McDonald's death, going so far as to apparently delete security footage from a nearby Burger King that captured the shooting.

My mom expresses her sadness and sympathy for McDonald and his family, and her disapproval of Van Dyke's actions. She sees a mother's son being killed on the street and dropping like a brick after being shot. The officer's job was to detain and de-escalate the situation, not execute McDonald.

I know McDonald was walking with a knife while he had PCP in his body. He was being stopped for slashing tires and other crimes. We don't want to kill people for that, though. We want to detain and de-escalate situations like this, not give up the lives of people who commit crimes as if death by cop should be an acceptable consequence to a non-life threatening situation.
