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.
Definitely not, yet through the smokescreen, it’s clear that this was not a case on caliber with others because the person was not assaulting or shooting at the cop, both of which would merit the cop defending himself. He was running away, chances are Walter Scott would likely either come back or be eventually found, as he likely didn’t have any stash for camping out and left his car, home, and supplies on a spur of the moment reaction.
Agreed. 100%
“The supervisor suggests to Slager, “When you get home, it would probably be a good idea to kind of jot down your thoughts on what happened — the adrenaline is just pumping.””
Do all murder suspects get the chance to go home and jot down their thoughts prior to making a statement?
Gotta keep the false narrative alive.
As a practical matter all people (black , white, or purple) should be taught that once a cop is dealing with you it is smart to say “yes sir” or “yes mam”and mean it.
Simple compliance would have saved that guys life
And no I do not think he deserved to be shot , but stupidity often has bad consequences.
