One of the first things they teach you in a concealed carry class is to keep your hands visible, inform the officer you have a gun and obey their commands. If you do that, you will never have this happen.
It could be said that "Sanborn" and his men handled the situation well under the circumstances.It could also be said that Ralph Finnes and *his* men did the same.
Just sayin'...
“The owner said Sterling didn’t have a gun in his hand at the time but he saw officers remove a gun from Sterling’s pocket after the shooting.”
What was HE doing with a gun? How many times was he arrested?
He likely BROKE a GUN LAW. He would break a MILLION Gun laws.
WHY DID HE RESIST?
He was going to jail. He didn’t want to go back to jail.
He was RESISTING with a GUN in his pocket. This had no chance of ending well for him.
And lean more to the "Yes Sir" side of things...
I think that TV crime dramas do us a dis-service here. They always show people fighting with the cops, and nothing ever comes of it. The truth is, fighting with the cops is a very, very dangerous thing to do.
“I might get roasted for saying this: But I sometimes wonder why people can’t cooperate with the police officers”
Thinking about this single point;
We know that the number of cop v Black killings is actually very very small compared to the number of Black on Black killings.
How many cop killings of Blacks would not occur if the Black men had only complied? Easily 80%.
What is it about this “instinct” to run from cops?
[insert though pause here]
“Officers can be heard saying “You [expletive] move, I swear to God,” and shouting, “Gun!” before shots ring out.”
Guy is fighting cops and has a gun. Justified shooting.
(Cops ought not use such language).
Ahhhh...misguided YUTE! Actually, for that part of town he was a lightweight. You have to understand that- much like the thinking of those in the Mafia-he was ‘just doin business’ back then. AT THE MOMENT he wasn’t jacking anyone up or breaking in some place, he was selling ‘music’. Ok- he was a felon carrying a gun, but that is NORMAL in thug society. It’s a whole different definition-taught from birth and reinforced on the streets. That’s why the mamas and babymommas can cry he was a ‘good family man’ hustling to ‘provide’ for his children. Nevermind that the government is their real daddy, he was a ‘businessman’ doing business and his own kind see nothing wrong with any of it.
Change this to a White man dead, and there’s no outrage and no coverage. When there’s equal treatment for Whites, I’ll start to care a bit more.
It was reported that someone called the police on this guy saying he was threatening them with a gun. Does anyone know if this is true or were they just setting the guy up? Cops arriving at the scene of this kind of 911 call would naturally be aggressive.
Inability to assimilate into this society by following simple directions most certainly can be hazardous to your health.

Definitely not a justifiable shoot.

>> “He was a felon several times over.” <<
That is not yet a capital crime.
I really don’t care. I’m cold, but...fight with cops, get shot. End of story. Of course the feral population will go absolutely crazy...again...it gets so old. I do feel for the normal people, but what they should do is, pull everything out; police, tv, reporters, and the normal people, and let these animals destroy their own bed.
He had a gun and was fighting and resisting arrest. However, he was unable to kill a policeman, so there are going to be riots.
We don’t have a single society now. Generations of government dependency have created TWO societies. Assimilation is neither wanted nor possible; especially when the lawless ‘society’ is gaining the upper hand by violence, intimidation and demographics. Its one ‘society’ or the other, we see the battle every day in many ways. Co-existence is not possible.
As someone who has been involved in close combat, which is what this was.........it looks justified to me. He had a weapon and was going for it, you don’t wait for him to actually yield the weapon at you. You end the combat as soon as you can.
If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck.
Then they will die because I refuse to.
Sucks to have a sucking chest wound as you bleed out.
The “instinct to not comply” is fully programmed into them via rap music, just the trash he was selling.
If BLM really gave a damn they’d be condemning those who glorify the thug life to impressionable, soft heads.
I saw a professor on public access one night years ago, and he had uncovered extensive ties between the big rap production cos and the for profit prison industry. Makes sense to me.
Yes, and your explanation for the murder of a CCW citizen in Minnesota? He told the cop he had a gun, the gun was not out, nothing to suggest any resistance whatsoever, yet he was shot 4 times and murdered in front of his wife and child.
