This part from the shooting story really shows how twisted our laws are:

It requires federal prosecutors to prove beyond a reasonable doubt what Mr. Van Dyke was thinking when he used deadly force

If I kill someone, it doesnā€™t matter what I was thinking. But if a cop kills someone, you have to be able to prove what they were thinking. That is a ridiculously high bar for prosecution, and itā€™s working exactly as intended. :rage:
