"he [the cop] didn't understand why the man ran away"
Some of you may remember the Sagon Penn murder trial from San Diego.
Here is a fairly accurate account of the Sagon Pen Police shooting
Hate when I see the races being discussed as if he was targeted because he is black .
This could have happened to a white guy and this would never have been mentioned. Just more race baiting.
He ran because he was an idiot; he was afraid of going back to jail for failure to pay child support ($18,000) and he clearly wasn’t thinking. That’s probably why he resisted arrest, although obviously, since the police already knew who he was, they would have come later and picked him up anyway. It wouldn’t have done him any good to run, but he doesn’t sound like somebody whose life was exactly in order.
However, he certainly wasn’t doing anything that merited being shot in the back eight times.
Wow didn’t know he killed himself.
It doesn’t matter why the guy ran away. You don’t shoot him down in the back for running away from a traffic stop.
Why did you mention that trial? There doesn’t seem to be any parallel, at all.
White officers shooting unarmed white men
White officers killed by unarmed black men
Black officers killed by black men, armed or not.
The media is flagrantly and deliberately publishing to the high hills every story of a white cop shooting a black perp. Guess what? Most cops are white. So if there's a death by cop it's likely to be a white cop. That's just the numbers.
Leaving out all the other statistics makes it crystal clear that the media is not reporting but trying desperately to shape public opinion.
