Yeah, but the chamber was empty. /s
Let's rumble
The Knoxville riot of 1919 was a race riot that took place in Knoxville, Tennessee, United States, on August 3031, 1919. The riot began when a lynch mob stormed the county jail in search of Maurice Mays, a mulatto man who had been accused of murdering a white woman. Unable to find Mays, the rioters looted the jail and fought a pitched gun battle with the residents of a predominantly black neighborhood. The Tennessee National Guard, which at one point fired two machine guns indiscriminately into this neighborhood, eventually dispersed the rioters.
After the riot, many black residents left Knoxville.
“The man who was killed has not been publicly identified.
Milwaukee’s mayor said the man was struck twice in the chest and the arm and that he believes the officer involved had a body camera on at the time of the shooting.
Milwaukee Police Assistant Chief Bill Jessup told the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel newspaper it wasn’t clear if the gun was pointed at the officer.
“Those additional facts will come out in the coming days,” Jessup said.”
I hope the body cam can shed some light on this story. If it shows the man pointing/shooting at the officer then we know it was a life or death situation. If we find that he had a gun in his pocket, well then we have a problem.
Can anyone explain their rationale. I’m baffled. The thug had a gun in confrontation with officers. Are they just stupid and lead like children?
Hard to argue with that.
How was it presented, ??
The driver was unarmed !!
Excuse me.. What about the 3000 lb car?
Have you noticed the MSM always leave out , Armed Man or Resisting Arrest . The police everywhere better go on high alert and watch each others backs ,you know what’s coming ,Thanks Obama
He was turning his life around or about to...
The root of the word "rationale" is "rational," which these people aren't. I think you answered your own question.
I fondly remember some of the by-words of the ongoing BLM crusade, such as "snitches get stitches."
Maybe you have in mind something like, "Looters get shooters."
Gangstas and thugs wanting free stuff joined by anarchists who just want chaos
Let’s see, following the Ferguson pattern, a DOJ investigation finds chronic racism on part of police in Milwaukee. Solution: throw money at the problem: extend unemployment compensation,increase EBT, register more Dems, sensitivity train police.
My late dad had the plan to stop riots back in 1968!
“TURN THE MACHINE GUNS ON THEM! MOW THEM DOWN!”
It happened in the sixties
Sounds about right...
Pretty shoddy reporting if you axe me.
ok thanks.
I like to use the Olde Englishe spelling. Shows how culturally refined I am.
If you shot the one scumbag for being a threat WHY aren't you shooting all of these other scumbags being a threat?
They are called "RIOT GUNS" for a REASON!
