The arrest of a suspect in the murder of Officer Langsdorf dispells the line that's been fed to the African American community for years now. But you won't hear anyone point it out or highlight it.
We have heard time and again, and it's a line that's been fed to young blacks. That police just want to gun down innocent African Americans for no reason at all, just because they're black. That Officers are inclined to just walk up to an innocent African American family dining in the Central West End and just shoot them dead for no reason.
What no one really points out in this horrible murder of Officer Michael Langsdorf is that, while the officer is dead, shot to death by the accused murder suspect; that suspect Bonette Meeks is still alive. If ever there was someone who could have ended up shot to death by police it's the suspect police accuse of killing the officer. A suspect who was armed and obviously dangerous. But that didn't happen.
Despite how devastated police were by the shooting of Officer Langsford, and despite knowing how dangerous the criminal suspect was, Meeks was arrested without being hurt. Police say he still had the gun used to kill the officer on him when he was caught. Still, he was taken peacefully into their custody. He was not assassinated, not gunned down.
Police say that's not an option he gave Officer Langsdorf. The Officer was knocked nearly unconscious. Police say the suspect stood over the officer who was lying face down on the floor and fired the bullet, execution style, striking the officer in the neck.
It was the execution of a police officer. Yet, the suspect walked away. I don't hear the usual cast of elected officials who always condemn police officers offer any words of praise for restraint above and beyond the call in capturing the suspect.
Such words from our leaders might have helped point out to people in some communities that maybe it's not true that police are trying to gun down every black person they see. It might have made a difference in changing attitudes of some of those against law enforcement. I guess the peaceful capture of accused Police killer Bonette Meeks doesn't fit the narrative.
