"Thats the price you pay for living in a big city"....

Not everyone has the means or circumstances to live where they want. No doubt many in Compton would leave if it were possible.
Does that price include potentially having your house fired into as a convenient 'berm'. And are we to assume that ones child, wife or simple visitor to that house is also included in the price?
The RO's in this mess, acted irresponsibly. If this same event were transposed to being some 'civilian' who opened up under a mistaken perception of SD, and emptied an AK or Beretta or etc, then a hue and cry would be raised to have the him hung...Or worse. But seemingly, for some,a uniform excuses conduct beyond a proper response.
Very disturbing, both the initial event and some of the responses to it.
Fortunately, much of what we say here is just conjecture, or anonymous chest beating, so mayhaps it's less important than it initially appears.
Or more so, insofar as this is a public forum.
