It was a mistake that should retire that officer for starters.

The officer did not know why he shot? No more an officer.

Years of dealing with severely developmentally disabled and emotionally traumatized individuals did nothing to prepare him for an encounter with a paranoid and unpredictable person who was armed with a gun and a badge.

well said.

Thanks. Bizarre. But the way the ACLU lumps this in with Alton Sterling & Philando Castile is b.s.

"So is it your contention that nobody was shot and it's all a big hoax? Or that he was shot and someone other than the police shot him? "

My contention is that the video does not show any shooting. What part of the video shows a shooting?

"So you are right. The man wasn’t shot and is just trying to get sympahty. The cops are lying. The witnesses are lying. The therapst is lying. The autistic guy is lying. Again- what is your explanation of why this was a good shoot? Or are you just denying that the man was shot?"

You have an active imagination. I merely stated that the video in the link does not show anyone being shot. Do you dispute that?

Exactly right. Someone called 911 and reported a man with a gun.

True, but BS (bad shootings) like this is what lets the demagogues get away with it.

The first action towards cleaning up a manure storm is to stop shoveling manure into the fan.

If police do not police themselves, the people will and smartphones and the internet have provided them with the means to do it.

Congratulations to you. You found a video that makes the police look bad.

How do you know it is a "bad shooting" when the video doesn't even show the shooting?

"For anyone who tries to lay blame on the victim, I'd like to know what in earth he could've done differently."

No blame can be laid anywhere yet, as the video doesn't show any shooting.

"Yes. The police made a stupid move there."

How can you know. The video at the link doesn't even show the shooting.

Agree with the last part. Disagree with anyone saying there’s an epidemic of police shooting blacks unjustifiably. Not even close to being true.

Now you are repeating yourself. You cannot spin it to your own fantasy so just run it by again.

I’m not spinning anything. The video doesn’t show the shooting. Do you dispute that fact?

That is irrelevant. The fact is the man was shot. No one but you disputes that.

I am totally PRO-cop. Always have been. My dad was a cop.

And the bad/stupid ones need to be run out fast. They tarnish the entire institution and make the job harder on the rest.

NO. I do NOT stand up for bad cops. And neither do good cops.

The people must have faith and trust in their police. That trust is degraded when bad cops screw up.
