It seems to me that in regards to the J&J vaccine 1 chance in a million for blood clotting problem is acceptable. After all its voluntary and the public has been informed, but what are the chances of getting shot by a 26 year police veteran, mistaking a firearm for a taser now that's a whole different ball game ! This should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. How many other cops on that force are that stupid? How did she last that long ? A lot of questions have to be answered. The solution is beyond me, it appears that quality above quantity would be a good start. Doctors and nurses are required to know what's in the syringe before pushing the plunger, it's not to much to ask for gun-toting cops to know the difference between their but and a hole in the ground. Make them pay, its the only thing that will deter this kind of tragedy.

I'm with you. Something stinks in Denmark.
Idk if this post is serious or not. But one percent of 328m is over 3 million people. the police kill on average about 900 to 1200 people a year nationwide. Doctors and pharmacists are required to know what they give but your typical nurse or pharmacy tech just get trained how to give a shot.

? At my hospital and I imagine all hospitals you have to double check the meds you are delivering.
Check your math.
@RedondoMike there is nothing wrong with the math
There's a common thread between the deaths of George Floyd and Duante Wright. In George Floyd's case, he was much, much larger then the two officers who first attempted to arrest him, so he was able to resist arrest for 4 minutes before Derek Chauvin showed up. In Duante Wright's case, he was able to pull away from the male officer and the female officer who were attempting to arrest him. Neither officer had the strength to physically subdue him, so she tried to reach for her taser and shot him instead.
I played high school basketball with two guys who went on to become police officers. One of them was 6'4" 220 pounds, the other was 6'5" 230 pounds. I think had those officers been the ones who had attempted to arrest George Floyd and Duante Wright, the outcomes would have been different.

The photos and video don't show this size differential. The video of the Floyd incident shows clearly police brutality. The other incident speaks for itself. A training officer mistaking a gun for a taser is beyond belief. I'm going to believe my own eyes on these two incidents.

@RedondoMike Duante Wright was 5'8" 145 pounds. Either one of my high school teammates could have pulled him out of the car with 1 arm and put him in cuffs. They had the wrong people making the arrest.
