The question of the day is.....why is Trump orange? Kristyn Burtt is just as perplexed as we are. It's a valid question because let's be honest, it's not normal.

Cops often shoot people. That's not an indictment; when your job is to stop criminals, you'll be doing some shooting, and there's always a slight chance the person you shoot didn't deserve it whether you knew it or not.
