On Wednesday in Philadelphia a mentally-ill black man was shot dead by two white police officers, who each fired approximately seven shots. The man was carrying a knife.
The man's mother had dialled 911 and was expecting an ambulance to arrive.
That police should fire 14 shots at a mentally-ill man, wielding a knife is barbaric. The police authorities knew the individual.
His mother stood between her son and the police as they shot him dead.
The shooting dead of the man was followed by rioting.
US President Donald Trump uses such instances to stress the importance of law and order.
Has it dawned on him that it is on his watch as president that these episodes occur?
