Alex.:
Dude was a dead beat anyway but... You should never wind up in a situation where you're punching a cop in the face and trying to steal his weapon. You fucked up somewhere in life to wind up in that situation.

I agree that he shouldn't have been shot that many times, however I'm pretty certain police are trained to trained to double tap until the person is.... Fuck it, I'm not going to argue about this shit.

Live like a thug, die like a thug.

Did you hear about the cop who got shot execution style by his own weapon when a foot pursuit went wrong? That happened in my city.

Just heard about that, sad, pellet gun had no markings to show it was a pellet gun usually they are brightly coloured at the tips.

--- Quote from: ginger on November 25, 2014, 07:15:29 PM ---If you think shooting dead an unarmed person (I'm 99% sure he was definitely unarmed) is ok, your brain wiring is all kinds of wrong. Whether he was a thief, or gangbanger, or whatever, excessive force resulting in death is not something that should be justifiable just because its written down as a law.

It doesn't take a genius to work out that killing people is a bad thing, especially when cops have various other methods of subduing aggressors. It just seems that the mentality in North America is one of "Fuck it, I'll just shoot him and worry about it after the fact" and that is not good for anybody.

Wilson's affidavit goes something like this dude was a more skilled combatant and was about to disarm him. His only recourse was to kill him or he would be victim to his own weapon.

This officer isn't a small dude either.

That's all I'm going to say about that.

Exactly, some folks choose to listen to only one side of the story without knowing facts and blindly follow it, people forget that there are 2 sides to a story.

I have a hard time believing this side of the story. How many asshole cops have you dealt with riding your bike? You can't imagine one acting the way he's been portrayed be the media cunt?


Sorry about the Louisiana thing Siri thought it was cool to autocorrect from St. Louis. Yah that's exactly what happened. Yah.
