This short true read should be required reading in every police training course in the U.S.A. It doesn't matter where that training course is, this needs to be required reading. If you want to be a police officer in this country, with our diversity of people, then this is required reading. And, as this is written evokes fear, the fear of being shot down and killed for no reason..(but the cops imagination)...

Every police person in training must read this..It will save lives and prevent some awful situations. It is also important the pictures be there too. So the trainees can see who wrote it. Perhaps, a stand in for the cop with the gun could be presented..or...if he has real sympathy for his actions, and understanding of the possible consequences....the real cop's picture can be shown...They don't read to reenact this, just the pictures so trainees can see the situation...............

Remember the person who wrote this was in an unfamiliar area. She had completed buying a car in a different area than she lived.. Every police person in training must read this, discuss this, and understand this.

If that happens, lives will be saved, and unnecessary shootings of innocent people will be prevented.
