"The officer is lucky to be alive."

He really is, she shot him blind, poking the gun between her left arm and her fat overhang.

Absolutely! In fact there are two great videos on youtube done by Chris Rock..."How Not To Get Your A$$ Kicked By The Police" and "Black People vs Niggaz".

Both are from years ago and I wonder if he still stands by them. It was gutsy for him to have made them in the first place and it would be even more gutsy if he stood by them even today.

Fair point. I am a big believer in body cams. I do not think people should go to prison for 10 years “just because the cop says so”. But if there is some evidence that someone was a jerk when they didn’t have to be, then I think they should be punished.

Current situation: Guy resists and the cop fears for his life as the situation spirals out of control. Result: bullets start flying.
Better situation: Guy starts to be a jerk, and the cop reminds him — “Better calm down, you can get 10 years just for resisting. Please don’t.” Result: fewer shootings.

Her last act at humanity was to spare the life of a fellow fatty.

Absolutely. She could have ran him over when he was on his knees gawking at the suspect. If she had not been critically wounded, she likly would have mowed him down.

She won’t be missed.

I hope the officer is okay.

I am tired of these lawless pigs. What’s sad is that these are the breeders.

Yeah the video shows a giant red pool of blood on her left thigh that wasn't there before the exchange of fire. He hit her at least twice. She takes a long moment before she drops the gun out the side, figure that was her 'death moment', she knew it was fatal.

He naturally did not wish to be in the news.>>>>>>>>>>>

Thats exactly right. He was reluctant to meet her acceleration of the situation.

He should have put her face down on the pavement and cuffed her much earlier. She would still be alive.

This cop has no business being a cop.

I respectfully disagree, Police are in a political bind when confronting our black brethren and sororien.
Even with the body-cam footage, the lawyers for the perp's estate will cajole millions out of the city/county
for the Officer's visibly constrained actions. Police must handle all black suspect's
with extreme circumspection. Society (the MSM, Democrat politicians, BLM, University professors, and black community leaders) demand it.

No matter what the cop did, short of letting the criminal go Scot free, he was at risk. This why many police,
knowing that a warrant or observed crime involves a POC, will walk the other way.

Yeah. The mindset of some of these people is just scary. Video cameras everywhere, one pointed right at the suspect, and he even warned the suspect she was being videoed. None of that mattered to her. She was very intent on killing him and the consequences of her doing that didn’t even seem to cross her mind.

Cops are facing this widespread attitude nowadays of, “F you MF’er, I’ll beat your azz” and these people are more than ready to back it up. Being a cop nowadays is very risky due to these attitudes.

I thought I was the only one having those thoughts. If he was in better shape I doubt this would have happened. He likely would have been able to get control of her without going for the taser.

Watch the video. The woman freaks out when the officer says he is going to put her in handcuffs.

Watching the video I nearly recoiled when I saw the physical condition of the cop who is extremely obese. And he allowed the suspect to ignore multiple commands to the point where she eventually was able to pull a gun and shoot him. And allowing the suspect to reenter a vehicle in this situation is close to a suicide death wish. This cop has no business being a cop.

I respectfully disagree

Really? Tell me, If you were a cop, and you were being viciously attacked by some psycho with a pipe on a 6th floor stairwell, would you want an extremely obese partner on the ground level to come to up six flights of stairs to your rescue?

I honestly did not quite catch why he wanted to cuff her. Not defending her shooting the officer and he was justified in defending himself. But she was being cooperative until he went to put cuffs on. So why were those needed?

"...current situation vs. better situation..."


That approach you outlined could yield benefits and I concur with your idea to help defuse situations. Good points.
It would be a different thread, yet I am also concerned about overly-militarized, violent, and steroid-using goons Biden/Harris are likely to unleash.

He pulled a bag of white powder out of her purse. Then tried to cuff her.

Because of the drugs he found in her purse, perhaps.
