First I didn't make a comparison. There wasn't anything to compare.
There was no point to make and nothing to prove. I was merely stating
an experience which I thought others may have shared. I used the
shooting incident to show that with that many bullets used, one can
draw that it could have been motivated by anger. Such anger could have
derived from dealing with a group of people for one or many reasons. I
didn't condone the shooting nor did I say that it was due to rudeness.

I wasn't comparing rude behaviors with death. I proposed a potential
reason why the police used excessive force -- anger. Think twice?
Knowing that it was a touchy topic, I thought all evening before
posting it. No it wasn't even close to an analogy nor was I attempting
to make one.
