Because there's no precedent for this type of incident,
What, for police killing someone as they were doing their job? Don't tell me that has no precedence.

But if there's any doubt, it has to be up to the courts to decide.
Why?
I would like to see the law applied as it has been written for this circumstance. If the due process is IPCA then follow that. If it is straight to the courts follow that. The police are operating under a particular code set out by us for them.
So don't make up some shit on the fly just because it suits your particular view of the police or criminal fraternity. That is not justice.

Nice Amy W. joke btw. I snorted.

to ignore the African side of his parentage to gain some sort of anti-PC kudos also ignores the impact his election has not just in the USA and, obviously, Africa but world wide. It's an important part of the narrative.

I must have missed that debate. Has there been someone whose father was African, mother American in the role of President in the past?

Not even strictly accurate
What is 100% accurate is "first African / American President".

Some sort of Lesser Blend
The Wellington Weak Blend. Absolutely.

The fact that Bill Ralston used to run TVNZ news stuns me.
