Avoiding run-ins with the police

 PJ Media:

Don't Carry Guns, Don't Run From the Cops, and if You Do, Expect to Be Treated Roughly

 So here we are again. An armed suspect runs from the police only to be pursued, subdued, disarmed, and arrested. In a sane world, the officers would be lauded for their efforts. Alas, the world is far from sane, and few portions of it are farther from sanity than Chicago and its surrounding communities. So, instead of being praised for removing an armed criminal from the streets, the officers find themselves villainized for using what the uninformed or willfully blind perceive as excessive force. The incident was captured on police and bystander cameras, and when the footage hit social media and the television news, it inspired indignation among those predisposed to or professionally reliant on outrage.

...

Chicago needs to support its police or it will wind up with fewer of them and more crime.
