Very cute… but ehhh
If the police were wearing body cams in this state, there never would have been protests/riots.
it seems video evidence doesnt exonerate ppl as much as it should, the mob doesnt gaf
this case is proof of that
this case stems from riots resulting in the “stay woke” cell phone recording of the bystanders who captured the end of
the officers’ attempt to detain Jacob Blake, who was shot multiple times in the back and paralyzed over what he has stated was relinquishing a knife in the floor of his vehicle while being arrested, which they are required to do when they are mirandized.
Those officers were not wearing body cams. Riots ensued after that cell phone footage was released to the media. The riots were also fueled by Floyd/Pandemic/election.
People have a right to protest peacefully in this country. It’s unfortunate people refuse to recognize the police as playing in role in what transpired and spiraled this out of control @ Floyd. It was a snowball effect after that.
But I don’t condone riots as much as I don’t condone mob rule.
Actually, all these incidents of Black people dying or disabled for life....
....can't the police or someone devise better weapons than that?
Like a specialized weapon that could fire bullets or have the option of tasering or tranquilzier darts?
An all in one specialty smart gun for the police?
Part of the problem is the police using the improper weapon or method to subdue suspects.
Wasn't there also a a policewoman who accidentally shot or killed somebody with a handgun?
She even said that when she shot the person.
I mean just imagine if that guy had be shot with a tranquilizer dart instead of a bullet.
He'd still be fine. And George floydd.
Surely a country that sent a man to the moon, invented the atom bomb can design better weapons than that.
In the case of Jacob Blake, he resisted two taserings, was wielding a knife at police, walked around his truck, bent over into the driver's side and it was not until that moment they shot him 7 times. Leaving the rapist paralyzed.
It was 100 percent justified.
And everything I said can be cited.
Btw there are literally zero videos of police shooting minorities in situations where it wasnt justified. You can invite those who claim this to show you.....and theyll show you justified shootings IF they show anything. That's why I say they are dumb or liars. Or both.
Well Dovey, many years ago when you were still a very young girl in the 1980s, I mouthed off the local police & disobeyed them in a city park. Immediately another plain clothes police came from outta nowhere to arrest me.
thing is, I had a lid of marijuana in the car and the police were gonna search it.
So immediately, I did an about face and said, "Yes Sir, what do you want?" Kinda like John Cleese in a Fish Called Wanda. Anyways, they backed off on their threats after I complied.
If they searched my car and found the weed, I could have been nailed with a criminal record because at that time, possession of MJ was a crime.
So, I came close ta getting nailed.
That scared the shit outta me.
If that guy disobeyed police like you said he did, it was pretty nervey of him.
Kinda Like Steve Irwin simmin' with the Stingrays. ;-)
Person takes their chances doin' that, eh.
