A weapons charge for what? Possessing a fire arm? I hardly think that's justification to shoot a man. It's not really an indication a person is violent with weapons. Just shows that they may own weapons. But by that logic anyone who owns a fire arm is a threat to officers.

I'm just saying you need more than that to shoot a man in the back. To me there needs to be more than just not listening to officers and trying to go in your car. If he wanted to shoot and kill an officer there would have been much easier ways.

I don't think this is racist or that these cops were trying to kill someone. But I'm concerned that officers go into encounters assuming everyone is going to kill them so they need to shoot before seeing anything. If you or I shot and killed someone we were arguing with because they went to their car where they "could grab a gun," we would all be in prison.
He also had a warrant for sexual abuse, trespassing, and DV.

@Sheik or whoever...where are some good streams of the riots?
i got you.


Sometimes they get flagged and have to change channels. I’d subscribe to all of their stuff if you can.

All I can say is I am sick of the whole thing.

Very tired of seeing the latest black man brutalized or killed.

Very tired of seeing the backlash outrage which in all honesty doesn't seem completely honest on all fronts.

So the Milwaukee Bucks just "boycotted" their playoff game. Just refused to come out of the locker room at game time.

That'll fix things.

There won't be an NBA soon. Their ratings have been declining for years and now the bottom has fallen out. Hope it was worth it.

I'm tired of seeing people brutalized or killed when they haven't committed crimes or blatantly disregarded lawful police orders that make the police think they are in danger.

But those are the minority of the even anecdotal instances we hear about, which are already amazingly rare.
