Every police chase is a danger to innocent people’s lives. Some chases are necessary, but a broken taillight is not worth that risk.

People foam out of the mouth here any time someone says “someone that’s not a cop made a bad decision”.
The cops abuse their power plenty, but if you’re running from the cops in your pickup with your kid in the car, you chose violence here. Blaming solely the cops here is idiotic and implies that the driver of the pickup has no agency.
Look, nobody is saying the person who ran isn’t wrong. It’s a given, though. Nobody is saying the driver bears no responsibility for the outcome.
People foam at the mouth when others give police a complete pass for endangering the public. Criminals don’t work for us. Criminals aren’t supposed to be protecting us. Police are. So when they behave in a way that increases danger to us, of course we take issue with someone saying they’re blameless because a criminal did a crime.
Actually, many in this thread are strongly implying just that.
