A Texas sheriff admonished parents in a recent Facebook post that police are not responsible for raising their children and criticized “armchair police” for second-guessing the life-and-death decisions that officers must make within seconds.
“In the news cycle over the last few weeks have been stories of young people being shot by police in some type of altercation or another,” wrote Throckmorton County Sheriff Doc Wigington on Friday. “The public is quick to jump on the officers involved stating a need for more training, better de-escalation tactics, and possibly shooting the subject in the leg.”
