The rules apply to blacks and whites equally. Officers command you to stop and listen. Whether they are right or wrong it is not the time to go against it because the consequences can be deadly. Let the court decide but a move like this ahole made will result in being shot. Freepers need to stop apologizing for him. He already had a record of waving guns and threatening people. Put yourself in the cops position. Would you have waited to see what he was getting when he refused to stop and was tazerred? Doubt it.

Yep. As I watched the video the very first time I said to myself, “Why the hell is that guy disobeying cops and walking to his vehicle. And then when he reached into his vehicle I said to myself, is he going for a gun?

Chris Rock made a video about this chit.

[pelican001]

“I’m no fan of the police but this shooting was justified, from what I can see in the video.”

Eight times?

In the mean time rioters are carrying guns in Kenosha, along with the usual looting an arson. Here is hoping that leaders in WI can navigate this better than they did in OR and WA.

[Abbeville Conservative]

Feckless, the “You” was not directed at you but Freepers who want to rail against the cops in this situation.

[mewzilla]

I’d keep my powder dry. The only thing we know for certain at the moment is that the cop killed the perp. That’s it.

[Abbeville Conservative]

Was he hit eight times or were eight shots fired?

[bert]

stupid black resisting arrest lives actually don’t matter. attitude kills

[DoodleDawg]

All of this...over two women arguing in some yard?

I'm guessing that while they were shooting this guy seven times in the back the two women were still arguing?

[yldstrk]

What he said

[Alberta's Child]

A cop is trained to keep shooting until the threat is completely disabled.

Watch the video. The guy was still upright even after all those shots were fired.

[DoodleDawg]

Disgusting how Fox News has repeatedly described this as “police follow him to his car and shoot him” - making it sound like they ambushed some poor innocent guy and completely leaving out the fact that they had guns aimed at him and he was ignoring them.

A capital crime in Wisconsin it seems.

[mylife]

Well they certainly are on face book talking **** now.

[StACase]

I may get flamed for this, but I think that cop needs to be charged with attempted murder.

Call 'em as you see 'em. And that's how I see it too.
There is nothing in that video clip that looks like the
cop's life was in danger

[cincinnati65]

Didn’t a DNC operative say last week that Wisconsin was the key to the election?

[DoodleDawg]

For all they know he could have been going to get a firearm and shoot at them.

Was there a firearm in the car?

[Abbeville Conservative]

Yep. This is a false flag. Inside job.

[Abbeville Conservative]

Shut up you liberal puke. You have been undermining this website for year. Unfortunately some people don’t realize that. You are a demonrat and some of us know it.

[Iscool]

For all they know he could have been going to get a firearm and shoot at them. That is the dilemma and cops are trained to do this. Tasing does not always work but he could have also been on PCP. Since he is in the hospital we will find out if he was on something or not.

So the guy MIGHT have been going after a gun, but, maybe not...Let's kill him just in case...

Hey look, I'm an avid supporter of that thin blue line but there are some really bad ones out there...And this may not be a bad cop...Just a cop who made a very bad decision...

I suspect this type of activity is part of their training to become police officers...

Another police shooting in a Democrat-Run City.
