  1. I guess people should stop marching because police no longer...oh wait..



    Police shot Jacob Blake, who witnesses said had been trying to break up an argument between two women, as he walked back toward his silver SUV on Sunday, an officer trailing behind. As three of Blake’s sons looked on from the vehicle, the officer fired seven times toward Blake’s back at close range.

  2. Inb4 they are found to be justified shooting an unarmed Black man in the back walking to his car where his kids were after doing nothing...

    Didn't the cops have Tasers? Why is everyone just shooting folks like that poor pet dog in the K9-pet dog incident?

    Cops need to get a grip.

    Shoot them once in the leg. Not 8 times in the back. And if you have to shoot 8 times in the back to stop a perp, yer a bad shot and should be fired for not knowing how to utilize a firearm to properly incapacitate your target. (Adrenaline is not an excuse).

    The pop-pop-pop of the 9MM with the 15-round magazine is too exciting for these young dumbducker cops.

    They need to learn how to use a wheelgun.
     
  5. I still don't see any reports of him reaching. If he jad a gun in the car it would be all over the news. Not sure why he was walking away to go to his car but shot 7 times in the back??

    Cmon..you telling me a white guy would not have even tackled and grabbed for whatever reason rather than shot 7 times in the back..

    Let's wait and see what the facts turn out to be. One thing for certain though, there is no systemic racism in the ranks of police, or in America by the way.

    i was being sarcastic w/my "reaching" comment
     
  8. oh haha....

    This is really sad.

    Forget about race for a second. Police ar enot trained properly at all if shoot first and ask questions later in these types of situations.. we are not talking about a gunman coming through the door and being taken down.

    Police think they can do whatever they want in shooting dogs and shooting people, it overshadows all the good ones doing their job.

    Mandatory retraining for eveyr police officer and fire all the bad ones..plenty of job seekrs that can be screened to be trained to fill out the force.

    every cadet in training needs a psych screening. Every one I knew that became a cop were just bully assholes that should not carry a badge. 4 yr degree in criminal justice should be mandatory. Manuals need to be scrapped and re-written.
