Yes, defective police tactics lead to the death of veteran Brian Babbs as well.  You get nowhere with ascribing blame to a retired politician.  The current problem is how the police indiscriminately kill because of how they choose to conduct business.  Of course, their choice of how to conduct business only represents the general American disrespect for life.  Well, disrespect begets disrespect.  Killing begets killing.  And around and around we go.
