This cunt got what he deserved!

You don't like people disagreeing with you, do you?

No, I just think you are a dick.

He also robbed a store (as well as Walmart), pointed the gun at the cops, shot the gun in the presence of the cops, didn't follow directions from the cops and pointed the gun at his own head as can be seen on the vid. Fuck him, the biggest shame is the cops didn't squash his melon.

I bet you wish you were the guy in post #9.

[unstuck]

Paints a fairly clear picture of police over-reaction.

Well I agree from that footage, and the cop needs to be tried for attempted murder. I think the good ol u.s of a has a hard road ahead and quite frankly I am glad I do not live there.

Then don't run from the Cops

Especially don't run from Cops who have guns and are trigger happy.

I had a bit of sympathy for the guy who acceidentally got shot (instead of Tasered) and subsquently died - but again - don't run from the Police:

If you run, you are guilty of something
If you are guilty of something, then you are a criminal
If you are a criminal, then you are probably armed
If you are probably armed, then best to shoot first, ask questions later.

What a crock of shit.

[Banditbandit]

Yeah ... the guy steals a gun ... threatens suicide .. so the cop tries to kill him ..


Well done !!!

Just kidding

[JimO]

soooooooo if he shot a old lady or a kid walking past everybody would be saying why didnt the cops do something, they cant win either way

haha I bet that cop likes to play grand theft auto.

[TheDemonLord]

What a crock of shit.

Please elaborate - Are you saying that its ok to run from the police and you should not experience any negative consequences for doing so?

[Edbear]

The reality is that America is on a downward spiral toward a police state where the police feel they can do whatever they like with complete impunity.

And the trouble is, the powers that be are quite happy for that to happen.

It keeps the masses under control.

Obviously not...

Where do you find the full story?

You find interviews and reports with/from those directly involved on all sides.

Now where did you learn that from? The likes of Katman and Unstuck would wonder...

[Edbear]

Funny thing is, the anti-police group seem to think it's inconsequential that the poor innocent "victims" are criminals breaking the law. I wonder how they would deal with these poor people who are so picked on by the authority charged with bringing them to justice...

If I was a black man in America I'd be scared shitless when being pulled over by the police. Did you see the beating the white fella got the other day? And seeing as all black fellas look the same (insert sarcasm do dacky), I'd be well worried that I was gonna look like the offender they actually wanted and were/are about to bash the living fuck out of me. And why wouldn't you be?

Well I'm most certainly not anti police Ed. But at the same time, I'm most certainly not into any police officer that fires 8 shots at an unarmed man, then plants evidence on him to give himself an excuse for doing so. Are you telling me that shit is ok?

Care to post some media free links for that information?

[unstuck]

I also do not consider myself anti police, at least not nowadays, but there are procedures and guidelines they have to follow. It is not the wild west, and to try to murder someone without exhausting other avenues in my mind is overreacting and playing judge, jury and executioner all at the same time.

No that one was way wrong and that cop will rot in jail for what he did.

But don't let the press lead you along with the 'white cop does this and that to the poor black man'. Daily there are stories you never hear in NZ about blacks killing whites, blacks killing blacks, whites killing whites etc. That stuff doesn't sell papers so don't make headlines. The press hypes the juicy stories eg plastering 4 year old pictures of Treyvon Martin in his school uniform and 5 year old pix of that guy from Fergusson when he was a cute little boy.
