There’s a knock at the door. You get your gun and open the door. It’s a cop! Bang! You’re dead for having a gun in your own home.
I don’t know if that’s what happened. But it has happened elsewhere. Cops shot a kid for opening the door with a TV remote in his hand.
What is a “federal police officer”?
I wouldn’t be too quick to dump on the responding officers.
This guy may have had a attitude thinking himself to be the top dog on scene. We’ll see how it plays out.
I don’t care who you are, if you brandish in front of officers, you’re messing with fire.
How old is that Pontiac in front of the house?
Just wondering....what does the fact that he’s black have to do with anything????????
They're being very coy with the specifics here. Was his gun holstered or in his hand? Seems like a simple fact to establish for a start.
He should have said, “Hands up! Don’t shoot!”
Apparently terrorists have also been disguising themselves as Federal Police as well.
They're awful sneaky, them terrorists...
They left a whole closet full of dirty diapers, a nasty bed with pizza, used condoms, beer cans and all sorts of things under the mattress.
Apparently "Federal Police Officer" isn't as snazzy as it sounds.
Sounds like a confluence of dumb actions.
“off-duty black federal police officer is still alive after being shot “
Will Al “not so” Sharpton or Jessie Highjackson get involved like they get involved in everything whenever an American African gets shot?
Q: When does a loud drunk woman get a courtesy ride home from the cops?
A: When her husband is a cop.
Since when do we have “federal police”?
Very interesting. Media will bend over backwards to NOT say the race of a person when the shooter is black.
But when a black is shot it’s in the first sentence.
Coincidence?
HA
Sounds like a night of drinking gone bad.
Interesting trivia:
“In early 2014 the Seaside Police Officers Association voted no-confidence in the current Chief of Police Vicki Myers. According to record, there has never been a vote of no-confidence against a Seaside police chief.
“Subsequently, a group named North Seaside Neighborhood Watch took publicly accessible data and created a presentation outlining the rise in crime in the city and related it to ineffective leadership on the part of Chief Myers.
“The group also alleges that Myers intentionally manipulates crime statistics using sub-par reporting methods to bolster city reports, contradicting the actual crime rate of the city. As an example, they cited that Myers counted 28 incidents of shots fired for 2012, whereas the raw data for the emergency call logs shows 115 incidents of shots fired. The discrepancy in the reports has yet to be investigated by the City Manager or City Council.”
