If I intentionally crash into a school bus, it’d be hard to argue I just hate the color yellow. Either, in your world, the cops are too stupid to understand the consequences of their actions, in which case they need to be removed from the situation, their job and be barred for ever being within 1000 miles of a weapon, or they don’t care, In which case the same should apply.
Your analogy is get accurate. It’s more like: commercial fisherman murders hundreds of innocent fish. Those fish usually go toward feeding whales. Why do the fishermen hate whales?
The real crime here is too many people, these cops included, use “just following orders” as justification to hand-wave away the side effects as not their problem. The intent is important here, and the headline for this article misconstrues the intent and cause of the resulting suffering. For that matter, it doesn’t even go into detail about the actual suffering, just a hypothetical one.
