Video from Kenosha, Wisconsin, shows a police officer shooting a black man in the back seven times. Riots ensue. And as is always the case when this kind of thing happens, the city’s mayor is a Democrat.

Hit seven times and the perp is in the hospital recovering? Need to send those two patrolmen back to the range for remedial training.

What was wrong with this guy? He was disobeying every police command and made a final lunge to get into his car. He might have been trying to run but I think the cops had to fear he was going for some kind of weapon in the car.

Can the social medium, which should be closely monitored by enforcement agencies, being used to organize those who participated in these riots be held legally responsible for their activity ?

Be a shame if Kenosha burned to the ground.

The Kenosha Cheeseheads voted for this...

Bullshit
The video shows a black man ignoring police commands and reaching inside the vehicle for a potential weapon.

Yep - he had no reactions to being tased and was reaching with both hands instead of trying to enter the vehicle...I think I may have been able to stop myself after 2-3 shots but would have done the same thing...

Taser didn’t stop him...assuming he got hit wiht it.

“They also said that the police had tried to hit him with a taser.”

Still no reason, that i could find, why the police focused on him. Must be a reason.
