Media will ignore. His department will call it a justified shooting because the cop was in fear of his life.
Imagine if Hunter Britain was a convicted felon, high on heroin, was resisting arrest.
His whole family would be arrested for insurrection.
“His department will call it a justified shooting because the cop was in fear of his life.”
And perhaps it was justified. Have you evidence proving otherwise?
It doesn’t work that way. The cop needs to prove the boy was an immediate life endangering threat. Not a cop basher here by any means, but the cop is an agent of the state, and the state killed that kid. We need to know why, and we need unbiased an complete information.
The body cam ought to provide that.
PLus there is that thing about the cop feeling “threatened” and if he says he felt that way and can give a plausible reason reason he will skate.
An example would be the kid put the bottle behind the wheel and while standing up he reached in his pocket for a rag to wipe his hands. The cop could say he believed the kid was reaching for a weapon.
This why the body cam is so important.

Nothing comes of this.
He is white.
No one cares (in power, media, academia, govt, charities, etc)
Have they provided the name of the shooter of Ashli Babbit?
Have Republicans blurted a word?

The Get the Police is 100% about race,
If you doubt it, watch CNN and MSNBC for 24 hrs and count the number of times they cover the story.

“The cop needs to prove the boy was an immediate life endangering threat.”
Don’t mean to pick too many nits but that’s not quite correct. I believe a shooting can be justified even if there was no actual threat but rather would it be reasonable to think the threat was real. A cop could be justified for shooting a kid when he pulls a toy gun out of his pocket in a dark situation, but not if the kid is caring a teddy bear in broad daylight and the policeman says he thought it was a weapon.
That’s where this case will come down to. Was it reasonable that shoot the guy just because he jumped out of the truck and pulled something out of the bed.
“If you doubt it, watch CNN and MSNBC for 24 hrs and count the number of times they cover the story.”
I ndon’t doubt it and there is no way I could make myself watch that crap for 24 hrs. I doubt I could make 24 minutes.
The news report stated he just fired with no provocation; the kid's friend was there and there was a body cam on the cop.
“...would not remain in park, so Brittain exited to place a container behind a tire in order to keep it from backing up into the squad car.”
Anything else?
Unfortunately For His Family, He’s Dead
Well maybe the cop thought it was some sort of explosive device that the kid was going to use to blow up the truck thereby injuring the cop; and the cop shot him without warning. Cop video cam and kid’s friend was there. Read the article.
“Well that bottle of antifreeze did kinda look like a gun.
The news report stated he just fired with no provocation; the kid’s friend was there and there was a body cam on the cop.”
First of all the “news report” was quoting the kid riding with the deceased. Second the body cam footage has not been released.
Have you always had reading comprehension issues?
“...Cops Killed Unarmed Hunter Brittain...”
Oh wait, Hunter is his name. I was getting ready to ask how the hell do you hunt unarmed?
I have the evidence and if you follow my BLOG I will release the Info in October. Waving hi to Humblegunner.
You have a problem with reading comprehension?
Four mass shootings in Chicago last weekend, but since the shooters likely were of African ancestry, nobody who doesn’t follow heyjackass.com knows about them.
Twenty-seven million dollars - shot!
