Militia occupies federal building in Oregon

9:00 mark.

Did that video show initial stop? There were supposedly two scenes.

 

Twos different scenes as shown in this drone video.

 

Supposedly shooting started at first stop.

I didn't see shooting at first stop but did see a lot of patience. If shots were fired there I could see it when he flees.

 

As to what he did to be shot, it's like he is playing a game of going for his gun not once but twice.

 

If this scene had played out in urban America these same Cowboys would be saying the guy got what he had coming for not listening, surrendering, and going for the gun twice.

The bottom line is this, it doesn't matter what color you are or what your cause is, when an officer of the law orders you to the ground you better obey. If not you may die. Even if this guy didn't have a weapon, the shooting would be justified.

"But why didn't they just taser him??? Police should never have to resort to shooting someone!"

Hands up, don't shoot.

Hands up, don't shoot.

 

Until you reach for the pistol you are carrying...then it's 135 grain, high speed, lead injection

Are you sure it wasn't a toy pistol?? I've heard they look a lot alike.

So much sarcasm in this thread. I can't even tell which side some of you are taking lol

[Jumper_Dad]

These people broke the law...The police/FBI used common sense in not attacking a fortified position, but waited until the leaders were together on the road and stopped them.

A guy that said he'd never be taken alive appeared to reach for a gun and got his wish.

Eliminate the threat.

Thugs never put their hands up and they always shoot and then lie about what happened.

If it was that's what they get for pointing fake guns at cops. Cops don't have time to figure out if the gun is real or not. Eliminate the threat.

It truly amazes me how fast the narrative can change.

I am enjoying Purple Pride in this thread. A lot of questions yet to be answered though before we can tell if this shooting was justified. For example, was this guy wearing a hoodie?
