You and PP are on a role.. It's a shame that this country and this website has become so divided.

Should have shot him sooner...but it's California, so you never know what their screwy rules of engagement are. Also can't tell if he is actually aiming directly at anyone or not, if he was he should have been shot ASAP.

Irrelevant.

Agree, but if he wasn't pointing at anyone that may be why he was not shot immediately. We've all seen stand offs where a guy walks around with a gun and the second he points at someone he is shot.

And we've all seen people with no weapons get shot and killed so uhhhh....yeah.

But this guy was shot, your complaint is that "He wasn't shot quick enough?"

 

Good Night...catch you tomorrow.

He waved a gun at the cops. He should be dead.

Just stop. Had this man been black he would have been dead the second he came back out of the car, if not sooner. Do you deny that?

And then we'd have gotten a full report of his criminal record, his high school transcript before he dropped out of high school, how many baby mamas he has, how he grew up fatherless and hadn't had a real job since he was released from prison 6 years ago.

Really...every black man that had a gun doesn't get killed. If they did the count would be in the 10s of thousands each year.

 

But I DO get what you are saying and I do understand it.

I know many don't believe it exists, but this is a prime example, especially considering the events over the past couple of days...

This whole situation is very sad all the way around and there is a lot of blame to go to all parties and everything involved. I had someone from my own hometown who was white two years ago get shot and killed by a cop, and there was no weapon on anything. It was nothing more than a local news story, no outrage probably because there wasn't to much of a story with it. One of the reasons is because the media didn't make it a story. However in the situations we seen the last two days the media is all over it because they know people will tune in to hear more about it, will go to websites and look at the details. A white live may be unfairly taken but that doesn't create the drama media wants so they don't talk about it much or as big of stories. Whites, blacks, media, everyone has had a hand in the problems we have today.

 

Over the last two years there has been some situations I thought a place officer was justified and some situations where it was absolutely uncalled for.

 

This whole situation will continue to get worst after the last 2 days. First what the cops did and now the protesting and killing of cops. With what is going on a cop now will have to even be more on edge wondering if someone will be like the protesters and try to shoot. Which is going to continue to make tension levels rise even more. Imo the majority of cops are good cops but there are cases where there are some bad cops and racist cops. Both sides have been very equal in the blame imo for the tension levels that are rising. The killing of people by cops that should never happen is wrong and the same with the innocent killing of cops just because they are cops.

 

I know I am afraid to what this whole level could continue to rise to. It shouldn't be a black lives vs. White lives matter thing. It should be all lives matter. Both sides have crossed the line and it continues to grow.

It's a respect life issue, not privilege or race issue...time for folks to belly up to the table and have some solid conversation, address the current condition, and chart solutions!

 

It's a lives matter issue folks!!!
