Uh, unarmed does NOT mean undangerous. Since none of us were present, hard for us to determine what caused the LEO to fire. One would suspect that most LEO are extra sensitive to any altercation at this point.

Did the cops even TRY “using their words”?

Democrat or Republican (not that it matters- just curious)

You should show up at every one of his fundraisers and bring confront him with it.

There is NOTHING worse than an a$$hole with a badge. Good cops should rot them out. Today’s results are what happens when they don’t.

Wouldn’t matter as we saw yesterday when some assclown popped one into his own head. Instant ‘LEO shot him!’ even though the video clearly shows the vic taking himself out. RTR! Reason To Riot.

Doesn’t matter. All the hate-America blm crowd needs is a black shot by cops, and they burn a few thousand more stores.

Just supposin’. Trump gave millions of Blacks jobs. That kept many off the streets and out of trouble. He would have created thousands more jobs when the dems artificially inflated the effects of a virus and met with anarchists to plan the riots. Result: blacks out of jobs and poor and miserable again, just like dems want them.

I suggest we all wait for the investigation into this incident.

It is sad that criminal suspects get shot sometimes, but it often turns out that they brought their problems on themselves. We don’t know for sure all.of the facts of this case.

They will just say the police planted it there. Remember, facts are racist.

I know.. It’s been a pattern ever since Marxists took over Government Agencies, States and Towns.. They withhold exculpatory evidence until the riots and looting take hold. I think the average person on the street is starting to wake up.

So, the cops are dealing with a lunatic who apparently has his own kids in the car, is at his wife’s where he’s not allowed to be, has already resisted arrest, and is now trying to either get in his car to get away or grab something to help him even the odds in the fight.

Say the cop drops the hold on his shirt and the guy takes off in the car with the kids along with him. Say he then runs over a cop and cripples him for life, takes out two pedestrians down the block, then crashes the car and two of his three kids die in the wreck.

Was the cop right in letting go of him and not doing all he could to stop him from taking control of the car given all that had gone before, even if the cop was unaware of his history before that, and even if he never saw the knife?

Anyone else thinking about the kids in the car? Maybe that’s exactly who the cop was thinking about. And maybe, just maybe, he saved the life of one or more of them. We’ll never know, of course, but I dare say that if it was anyone else’s kids in the back of that car, they’d now be running a gofundme campaign for that cop.

And they are like pit bulls and never let it go. As in the Michael Brown case, for example, the liberal view has morphed into him being a murder victim and a martyr, even though the policeman in that case was exonerated after the investigation.

Nowadays, it seems like we don’t even want to wait for any investigations of the circumstances anymore. Instead, these liberals and radicals just want to cut to the chase and get a lynch mob going. Or in the absence of a lynch mob, getting a riot started is their substitute.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

yup. that’s what happened in atlanta too.

cop was shot at by unruly suspect, copy returned fire in self defense with his service revolver....and was charged with murder....before any investigation.
