What are they protesting?

The guy wanted to die and advanced on a cop with a knife.

I saw a pic on a newscast of the “kinfe”. It appeared to be a Leatherman combination tool thingy. The knife part was still folded.

Parents of the thing have egged on the protests, blaming cops instead of their son/daughter/thing.

No other civilized county’s police would have have shot this guy at that point. They simply would have moved away from him and resumed efforts to non-leathaly neutralize him. Police in the US used to be more like that too.

If police are going to continue to kill people in these kinds of circumstances, riots and retaliatory killings of police will become routine.
