And as long as DA's and other officials turn their back on cops to make sure there isn't a riot in their town, it's not gonna stop anytime soon.

any competent officer would not shot that man



I wonder how many competent cops have died because those routine traffic stops of guys just like this. No drivers license, starts car, not saying cop had to fire but once again you put the cop in a situation that could have been avoided by another good guy. Whatever

Having a DA call an officer's actions asinine before a complete investigation is done is the real asinine thing here. It's still Merica and he's innocent until proven guilty.

Did we watch the same video? At what point did it seem the guy in the car was about to run over the cop? The car only moved when the guy's brains were riding shotgun.


The video shows a brief struggle during which there was a gun shot, a barrel roll, and a car driving away. The camera shook so much during that whole ordeal that I found it impossible to tell if the car had already started moving before the gun shot occurred.

You could interpret someone fearing getting run over as a head on collision from the front bumper. However, if he was hooked on the car, his legs could get tangled and run over by the back wheels as he is being drug along.

I wonder how many of these posters would feel the same way if it was one of their teenage children/family member that snuck mom or dads car out to go for a joyride and freaked out when being pulled over by police and chose to try to drive away from the cop in fear of getting in trouble by their parents with the end result is having their brains splattered?
Shut up, SS. And stop comparing 43 year old black guys to white teenagers. It's racist.

Well typically when they are trying to convict somebody of something--especially as serious as murder--they have less than stellar things to about that person. "Asinine" is a on the lower end of the insulting things said.

I love the morons calling "murder"

Maybe manslaughter if the DA is lucky.

And when is the last time you heard a DA call something a murderer did asinine? My point was he laid it on thick because he wanted to distance himself far away due to the current times. Instead of something to the effect of he was wrong and we will investigate this to our best ability.

Eta: Remember, he "allegedly" committed this crime. Or is that only sometimes the case before a trial has come to an end and a verdict reached?

No way a murder conviction will be given. There was a threat, wasn't pre mediated, etc. Manslaughter if they are lucky. Get the riot gear ready though

He's already gone through the grand jury with an indictment; it's not like this just happened. While he is innocent until proven guilty, the DA's job, at this point, is to prove that guilt.

Besides it's relative infrequent usage, calling his actions "asinine" is far less insulting than calling him a "murderer," which is what the DA has done with the grand jury proceedings, not to mention moving forward with a trial.

Regardless, his public comments are pretty common; it's just that LEO's aren't usually the one's charged with murder.

From my understanding, it is near impossible to actually indict a cop, right? Something like only 3%? This is the first time I have been against the actions of the officer (with the large case), but if the grand jury actually indicted the officer, I thought that usually meant it was a slam dunk case for the prosecutor.

i dont care if he was purple, get your racist shite out of here. The dumbass threw his car in gear and could have killed the officer. He protected himself, and did a fine job of it.



Explain to me why the officer should be reaching into this mans car FOR ANY REASON.

A real fricking good reason to not have half his body in someone elses car. Especially for no good reason. Especially with your firearm aimed at a citizens head.

Seems like the wrong guy died here.
