What should not be necessary is making "the talk" a matter of race or gender.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Yeah, but if I recall, that was prior to actual contact. In other words, a patrol car drives down the block, and three guys break into a run --- that's not a crime, nor can it be used as a premise for an arrest. But once they're being detained, running becomes a problem.

Though I doubt we'll ever be told, I'd really like to know what, if anything, caused her to have her gun in her hand in the first place. She had just trained a rookie that day IIRC, and knew first hand what could happen if one mixes the two from her involvement in a previous and similar case. So what lapse in protocol, what immediate distraction resulted in her holding a gun instead of a taser. She clearly thought what she had in her hand was a taser.

If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26
This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

Sadly....
Q: On the episode of “Blue Bloods” titled “The Bullitt Mustang,” was the car shown at the end the original Mustang from the movie?
A: Viewers of that episode of the CBS drama will recall that it revolved around the so-called Bullitt Mustang, the car Steve McQueen drove in the 1968 classic Bullitt. In the episode, what was thought to be the car from the movie was in fact a fake, but a second car seen at the show’s end is presented as the real thing.
Unfortunately, according to CBS, that was just some dramatic license. The telecast featured two authentic 1968 Mustangs, but neither is the car from the film. The location and owner of the actual car from the film have been much discussed by car buffs, though I did not see an answer I thought definitive enough to mention here.
