YOU’RE USING A MICROWAVE?!?!?!

So Texas’ state sanctioned murder by police officers is cool with you?
Great idea!
What if we just had the death for cops who were found guilty of shooting unarmed people for no reason? Like, no appeals, nothing; just straight to the firing squad upon guilty finding.
That said this was Texas.
Two days after the killing, Iversen sat for an interview with the Texas Rangers, the agency that investigates police shootings.
The WHO investigates police shootings in Texas?!
two police use-of-force experts contacted by NBC News said they saw no reason for Iversen to open fire during the encounter.
Mickie McComb, a former New Jersey state trooper, said Randall never made any movement that would suggest he was “drawing or attempting to draw a weapon” and at no point was he “charging the officer.”
“There was no threat,” added McComb, who now works as an expert witness on use-of-force cases. “He should have never used deadly force. It was completely uncalled for.”
McComb said he believes that Iversen would have faced criminal charges — and likely ended up in prison — had the incident occurred in the Northeast.
A Florida Man in every household!
OR, now hear me out, a Toaster-Time Machine!!!
Except in the US
Yeah, some people wanted to use my spitballed idea as a platform to voice their anti-death penalty sentiments (despite me clearly delineating what I was saying from that process), but all I’m really trying to get at, is that if there were SOME sort of very very serious consequences for what is essentially negligent homicide, then maybe these cops would think twice before gunning down unarmed people.
