Assuming they are facing a deadly threat and force in kind is necessary, any officer who's hand is forced to injure/ kill a black suspect is a hero in my book. This day in age, defending yourself or the life of others against a black suspect who is acting with deadly intent (reaching for a knife for example!) will likely be punished with a murder charge. These officers are willing to go to jail for murder in order to protect those around them, and in my book that makes you a hero. Change my mind.

Edit: I won't remove black from this. I will say that it applies to all races of suspects, but especially black suspects since the media/ left doesn't really care about when other races are killed by police, and that's where the mob justice is coming from
