Just more proof that this whole thing was just a scam to destroy the economy and increase the power of the Government.
Because if you or I thought a fleeing man was armed wed be perfectly justified in emptying the magazine in his back....

This article was very deficient in facts. Did you find the autopsy report?
I have 17 rd mags for my carry gun. Plus one in the chamber.
In that video you can hear the taser deploying and then the high-pitched recycling noise, followed immediately by some nearby shots, and then shots from one or more distant weapons. It sounds exactly like the way the police have reported it.

(1) Coronavirus - OVER! And Conservative heroes like Dallas salon chick are inspiring Trumpians.
(2) Murder hornets - America panicked -- for 1 day
(3) Staged racial killings by cops and "white supremacists"
Could #3 be the charm for November?
“This ghetto thug shot at the police.”

Is that in the link somewhere?
TG, I think youre missing something here. Its not like GuavaCheesePuff deliberately deleted something from the TMZ article, then posted it. There simply was no mention of the man having a gun in that article.
If you want to get mad at anyone, get mad at TMZ for poor reporting.
By the way, I dont blame Guava or anyone else for posting a TMZ article without first doing more research. TMZ is a goofy celebrity gossip site. But they often do excellent, real reporting. Id trust them over, say, NBC or CBS.
my glock holds 30
Some posters here have “tendencies.” Don’t blame readers who notice them.
The Glock 17 sitting next to me holds 17 in the mag and one in the chamber. You can buy extended mags that hold up to 33 rounds and a drum mag that holds 50 rounds.
Shooting anyone in the back is almost always a bad decision.
do a car chase with cops ad then tell them to ‘phuck off’ and may be pointing a gun at them, well, its not surprising what might occur next.
blacks who are involved in such things are extremely rarely just minding theirnown busines. trying to hide from cops after a car chase is not just a good black man doing nothing goign about normal life.
“A fleeing felon statute is in order.”
That law is in the books in Washington State. However, while the law is still on the books, I’ve read where the Supreme Court years ago ruled that one can not shoot a fleeing felon. Although that may just be a cop can’t shoot. In Washington State it is spelled out that a “citizen” has more leeway than a cop in a shooting.
i dont think so.
i think discretion can be reasonably applied, and the danger the fleeing person is causing.
true but swearing at a cop isn’t a death penalty offense.
i had heard from previous stories he had a gun.
now it appears that is in question.

16+1 on my usual
IMPD says a loaded gun matching photos Reed had posted on social media was found on the scene. IMPD says ballistic evidence points to both parties firing shots. The Marion County Forensic Services Agency will test evidence from the scene.
They say casings from two guns were located on the scene.
