You have the right to be shot

Whatever you do, you probably shouldn't fight with your girlfriend (or some ho) in public on the Eastside because apparently it's a shootable offense.

A KCMO police officer is off the job Saturday after shooting a man. Police say two officers saw a woman and a man fighting near 83rd Terrace and Troost Avenue Friday just after 11 p.m. The man began to run when the officers stopped to investigate. One officer followed.

The officer says the man stopped behind a building, reached into his pocket and pointed what appeared to be a gun at the officer. The officer opened fire, hitting the man.

Yeah, you have to take into account that the guy was running from the officers as well but given the fact that they're pretty quick to shoot an unarmed person East of Troost (read: probably Black) it's not exactly like you can blame the guy for being a little apprehensive about an interaction with local law enforcement.

My solution: Avoiding confrontations with women and the police by pretending not to care when both try to control your every move with oppressive behavior.
