Miami Police-trigger happy, or did the City fail to train them? :: 05/10/2014

"MIAMI (CBSMiami) - On December 10, more than two dozen police officers from across Miami Dade County converged on a blue Volvo that had crashed in the backyard of a townhouse on 65th Street just off 27th Avenue.

As the car was wedged helplessly between a light pole and a tree, nearly a minute passed before officers opened up - firing approximately 50 bullets at the car and the two unarmed men inside the vehicle."

Something in the protocol for escalation of force failed miserably in Miami. Do you blame the cops, or the training officers?
