The decision of a St. Louis grand jury to not indict a police officer there of shooting and killing an unarmed man has raised new interest in an officer involved fatal shooting in Salt Lake City.
Dillon Taylor, a white male, was shot and killed in August.
Officer Bron Cruz, who was described as non-white, shot Taylor once in the chest and once in the stomach after he refused to obey police.

Don't tase my dog, bro....
I couldn’t care less about the race of the cop or the victim.It was either a justified shooting or it wasn’t.It’s not as if there’s any shortage of *white* scumbag punks in this country.
Mormon riot to follow. (But not on Sunday)
"Refusing to obey police" is not a justification for summary execution, and there is no way it used to be expressed as such by the media. Self-defense is the ONLY allowable reason.
Thanks for continuing to program the prisoners, MSM.
May your karma fully reward your efforts.
I know my kids still have to take their mid-term exams - trauma or no, that precedent has been clearly established. But am I allowed to start riots so I can do some quality looting? That's the way it works now, right?
< /sarc>
(I want to make sure I indicate I'm joking so I don't get a visit from some non-white cops in the middle of the night.)
What? We can’t loot for Christmas? Where’s OUR pity party?
Think one o’ them Mormomns would loot me a tablet? I was gonna order one off of “nomorerack.com”, but free would be cool.
Come to think of it, a Mormon riot would be surreal.
So any command given by a policer that isn’t followed is justification for summary execution?
Suicide by cop or buying time to make a break for it as he had a warrant out for him for armed robbery?
Did they find out if anyone of this crew had a gun as per the original call that brought the police to the store?
Or he might have been wearing headphones, listening to music like his two pals said he was...
Guess those kind of fell out of the narrative, like the non-existent loosies that Eric Garner got killed over.
Now, I watched presumably the same video that you did, the one that's 47 seconds long.
The cop pulls up, starts climbing out of the car at 17 seconds, and the kid is shot 20 seconds later.
@ 17 seconds, he's climbing out of the car, at 24 seconds, he rounds the cars that are masking the kid (whose back is to him), he does the aggressive, gravel-voiced "get yer hands out NOW!" thingee at 29 seconds and continuing, the kid still has his back to the cop at 32 seconds, just starting to turn at 33 seconds, and he's shot 4 seconds later, at 37 seconds.
Reminds me of a "shooter" video game.
Shot like a dog!
Wonder if they found Eric Garner's "loosies" with the earphones, since we didn't hear anything more about them after they offed Garner? LOL! :)
Reminds me of this video.
“A dash cam video from the officer who shot and killed Native American woodcarver John T. Williams...”

No gun, but the dead kid was loaded (0.18). If he was wearing earphones, which by his sauntering away it appears he was, it means the drunk guy had 3-4 seconds to figure out he'd better not do anything stupid.
Whoops! Somebody "feared for his life"! Sorry, kid - them's the breaks - but thanks for playing!
Or maybe you really were buying Skittles and iced tea for your little brother and just adjusting the volume on your music gizmo with both hands and didn't hear the cop and then just quickly turned around then....
I don't know. The grand jury decided. If you feel that strongly call Al Sharptongue.
Trayvon had a lead deficiency, and Doctor Zimmerman cured him. LOL! :)
The grand jury is the prosecutor's sock puppet. He jams his hand up their posteriors, and they quack out what he wants them to say.
Some of the testimony just about made me throw up.
The dumb-sh*t drunk kid had all of 3-4 seconds before he got shot, like Erik Scott over in Vegas.
