Why is the same outrage not

Why is the same outrage not apparent when a LEO shoots through a door and kills a man in his own home? When an inmate is beaten to death in jail, a man who does not undertand English gunned down while reaching for his ID? When an officer not responding to a call drives 75 mph in a 55 mph zone? I think we all are tired of the double standard for police/civilians. The LEOs should go out of their way to set examples, especially for our young people. Seems like whenever a LEO runs afoul, there are never any consequences. But, let a civilian do the same thing, the legal community goes after him/her with great zeal. I think all the negative comments on this particular thread concerning the WPD and Officer Matthews, comes from the fact that most folks just want a fair shake, and it is not happening anymore.
