So if you go at their replies with this in mind, it all makes sense.
Edit: So remorseful it took him a whole day to turn himself in and was actively trying to leave the city. So remorseful, he denied culpability until his trial. So remorseful he already had outstanding warrants. Ya, he was on the right path.

Grow a brain.
If this guy walked up behind the cop and shot him in the back of the head it would be much more cut and dry.
Here's a question for you: did the cop do anything wrong at this stop? Is it procedure to latch onto a fleeing vehicle? That's really what got the cop killed. Had he taken one step back and let the vehicle flee he'd be hanging out at South Centre mall today grabbing a Cinnzeo.
Are the young guys in the car partially responsible? Absolutely. Should they be punished? Yes, and they have.
Did the cop make a terrible split-decision choice that was against procedure and was it part of the reason he died? Yes.
Do other people in other jobs make poor decisions that lead to their deaths in workplace accidents? Yes, all the time. Does that mean I hate them? No, because that would be super stupid. I feel bad for them.
Do I hate cops? Of course not, why would you say such a thing?
