I suspect you laugh frequently at reality, as it must seem very strange to you.  It doesn't take a psychic to figure out what the words you write here mean.   As to being from "a single point of view":  It is being reported from the point of view of everybody who was involved who can testify.  All of the escalation was on the part of the driver who raced off from a police stop and refused to stop racing even when confronted directly.    Policemen must put themselves in  "precarious" situations on a regular basis.  As to your claimed dislike for the "death penalty",  I can see the truth of that from you comments on the other deaths in Kent reported in this paper this year.    I see little I could call truth in what you post here.
