It’s easy. Don’t be black. Be white, and preferably rich, too. From a Sept. 6 news report:
“A 19-year-old former high school field hockey star plowed her BMW into three cars, left the scene of the accidents and kicked a police officer in the head before being apprehended in Bensalem, Pennsylvania on Thursday morning.”
Yet, not a single shot was fired.
By the way, the Bensalem police department is infamous for looking the other way at violent harassment of animal welfare activists opposed to live pigeon shoots at a local gun club — one of the last two or three places in the United States were “sportsmen” can shoot at live birds as if they were skeet targets. I won’t link here to a video of these “shoots” because they’re too disgusting to watch. But if you want to see angry “sportsmen” assaulting activists with fists, vehicles, and handguns, you can see all of that here (warning: graphic violence):

According to the activists, Bensalem cops didn’t arrest or charge the perps in any of these incidents. So maybe this police department has a policy of not shooting at anyone, ever … at least if they’re white and rich. But if you’re non-white, I’d suggest giving that redneck town a wide berth.
