ATL Bear said:Holding his shirt??? Well there's a great way to restrain someone. Officers put the victim and themselves in danger by not getting and keeping him on the ground. They have tasers, batons, and pepper spray not to mention two on one advantage, yet they couldn't get this guy restrained. I'm not even arguing the moment of firing wasn't justified, but why does it even get there?Bearitto said:ATL Bear said:So they did fail to restrain him, and gave up and let him walk to his vehicle. I know you don't care as you prefer the judge, jury, and executioner style of policing.Bearitto said:ATL Bear said:You must have some information I don't. All I've seen and read is about a bunch of yelling with guns drawn.Bearitto said:ATL Bear said:And at each step, the officers failed. Once again multiple officers can't subdue or restrain a single subject, and end up shooting someone in the back multiple times. Any yahoo can unload on an unarmed and/or belligerent subject. It takes zero training or a badge.Bearitto said:cms186 said:theres been no evidence that he was actually reaching for a weapon, has there?i havent seen any claims that he was actually reaching for a weapon anyway, why should there be a "Shoot first, ask questions later", its been shown there was no gun in the car, Violence isnt always the answerBearitto said:cms186 said:is owning a knife cause for a law enforcement officer to shoot someone 7 times in the back? are Law Enforcement officers in America THAT incompetent that the only method of dealing with someone who MIGHT be reaching for a knife, to shoot them in the back 7 times?SIC EM 94 said:cinque said:
As more is known, I post it here.

1. Had warrants for arrest
2. Was cause/perpetrator of immediate police response call
3. Ignored lawful orders
4. Ignored lawful orders with guns drawn on him
5. Ignored lawful order with guns drawn on him while reaching for a deadly weapon inside his car
Anyone who thinks this is a bad shoot is a fool
I listed the steps he went through so people like you would have to confront all the choices he made to get shot. As usual, people like you ignore them all.
Each of those tactics used to subdue will be and have been deemed police brutality and been called the primary cause of death of violent resisting offenders. He was tased and the police tried to physically subdue him. He fought them off and went for a weapon.
The police succeeded in not letting a scumbag ignoring lawful orders kill them. The woman he'd been assaulting was no longer being assaulted and he's not likely to engage in any of the violence he had warrants for. Shooting him was the right thing to do.
Try and keep up.

No. The officer who shot him had hold of his shirt while he continued to reach for the knife in his floor board to kill them.
Keep up
Well, it's the last thing they could grab after the guy shrugged them off, shrugged off a TASER and went for a knife to kill them.
How dare they let the guy be stronger and more violent than they were, right? I mean if he wants to ignore them and then stab them to death, who are they to object? You believe police are there to die if criminals decide they don't want to obey the law, right?
