Yes indeed, they will and that is exactly what will help cut down on these shootings. Personal accountability, on the part of the officers as well as the residents.And then we're back to the problem that they live in the same area as the people they spend all day irritating.
When Officer Jones is driving down the street in his own neighborhood and he sees young Henry walking in the street, he thinks "Oh that's just crazy Henry... Ms. Jenkins' son" rather than "Who is this young punk! Is he dangerous?!? I better start a confrontation with him" ... And instead of pulling up next to him and shouting expletives, he pulls up and says "Hey Henry, how's it going? Should I call your Mom and tell her you're in the street?" ... and Henry, instead of yelling expletives and running away says "Aw man officer Jones wuzzup! My bad, lemme get out of the street right quick."
No one dies... because everybody knows each other. No one shoots anyone, because they don't want to have to look that parent (or spouse), their next door neighbor in the eye after shooting their unarmed child (or their husband the officer). And in the rare case of a shooting death, there is mourning and harmony, because ... "I know officer Jones, I see him everyday dropping his daughter off at school. He would have never shot that boy unless he had to."
