Why does Black Lives Matter think that the police should listen to people instead of people making sure to listen to them?

So I'm reading an article today and they are complaining again about a black person being shot. Lady sat in her house, refusing to come out. This lasted 5 hours when the police served a search warrant at the residence. The police patiently waited over 5 hours to enter the home. When they were able to get a key, they entered the house with the search warrant and found the lady sitting there with a shotgun in one hand and her child in the other. She proceeded to point the shotgun at them and tell them she would start firing if they didn't leave her house. She then started firing and the police shot her dead. Now Black Lives Matter is actually saying the police once they entered the home should have listened to the woman and just walked away, even when she fired shots at them.

    The bottom line is that out police force is poorly trained. In Europe many countries train their officers for 3 years while we have less than halve a year. Police in America don't know how to de-escalate a situation. Simple question. Did this women have to die today? Answer is no. They could have addressed this so much better.

    I am really sorry that you can't grasp that this is just one case and may not compare with the many executions that have already been committed

    So UK answer, news watch the videos saw the "Judge Dredd" temination for a minor crime

    So lets turn this around and show you the near impossibility for a Police man who KILLS unlawfully how he 99.99% will walk free and the DEAD person will remain DEAD, not undead or walking dead

    North Carolina sheriff’s deputies kicked in a man’s door Sunday 15/11/2015, then pepper-sprayed him, shocked him with a Taser and ultimately shot him to death – all after the alleged victim refused to allow a warrantless search, his surviving housemate said.

    “Not without a search warrant,” John Livingston told two officers who arrived after 3 a.m. and asked to look inside for a man who no longer lived in the home, housemate Clayton Carroll told WNCN hours after the incident.

    Livingston, a 33-year-old father of three, then closed the door of their Spring Lake, North Carolina, trailer, Clayton said, igniting the confrontation that led to his death.

    “The cop kicked in the door, got on top of him and started slinging him around,” he said. Shortly after, Livingston was shot multiple times on the trailer’s front porch.

    GRAND JURY DID NOT INDICT!!!! (charge could have been 2nd degree murder)

    ME & YOU HOME INVASION / BRINGING A WEAPON ETC

    Police WITHOUT a warrant looking for another guy.

    FBI in May 2016 are looking to see if any Federal law breached,

    I accept the case is NOT typical of what BLM as I understand it as in this case they had PC to enter

    but don't accept that it needs to be examined

    Freedie Gray case and medical examiner's office concluded that Gray's death could not be ruled an accident, and was instead a homicide, because officers failed to follow safety procedures given a "rough ride" whilst being transported to the police station, they even stoppeed to put him in leg iron

    On top of that it was an Illegal arrest

    There are many site where you can read up on the circumstance of how each person died ok

    Sometimes people are blind to circumstances. This woman believed in the Sovereign Citizens, a crackpot theory that denies the legitimacy of federal, state, and local governments. What bothers me about this case is that the cops weren't wearing body cameras. Police must be forced to do this.
