There is no shooting of law enforcement in the marching band show or the film John Q -- in the movie, the gun was unloaded. You may think I'm splitting hairs, but I think that's a pretty key difference. It's why the protagonist of the movie is portrayed as heroic and not a cold-blooded killer.
As I previously said, no one would have given this show a second thought if they hadn't stupidly decided to do it in Brookhaven in the aftermath of a police shooting.
