I learned a lot from this. I had not understood the legal basis and history behind “reasonableness” before.
I learned that liberals feel the decision was actually counter to advancing their agendas that the decision seems to protect cops more than they would like. I also learned I simply don’t think like these people. There is such a gulf in our interpretation of events I sadly believe it to be an uncrossable chasm.
Trigger warning if you are a cop because the hand wringing toward the end will probably piss you off. I still think it is worth listening to and would enjoy anyone’s comments.
