I think we need stricter rules regarding lethal force. You shouldn't be able to shoot and kill an unarmed civilian even if they are charging you. Police are trained, use the training to overpower him or use less than lethal tactics to stop him. The firearm should only be used if the suspect has a weapon of some kind in his hand
No. All of that. Just no.
What I think we need is a civilian review board which processes excessive force complaint in situations like this Michael Brown. It needs to be separate from the police.

cameras plus a review board would be a good thing in cases like this.
IMO it would show the cop was mostly correct in this case vs brown. You might be able to point some of his handling of the suspect before the shooting as questionable but in the end probably justify putting brown down.

This or something along those lines. It's not about stopping those rare instances where a cop exceeds his authority because there will always be bad cops just like there are bad everything else. For me, it's about accountability when it does happen.
