quote:

Chief Barber told reporters that the officer noticed the driver of the Lexus make a traffic violation. The officer pulled the driver, Mike Moore, over for the violation. Chief Barber says the officer asked Moore for his license and registration, but Moore did not have either one. The driver gave police a name, which turned out to be false. The officer also called in the license plate number and the Lexus came back as a stolen car. The two witnesses told investigators that as the officer was getting information about the driver, Moore pulled a gun out which was tucked between the seat and console. Witnesses said Moore put the gun in his waistband.


quote:

The officer noticed the gun in the driver’s waistband as did a witness driving by the traffic stop. The officer ordered the driver to not reach for the weapon, but he did. The officer fired three shots, and then Chief Barber says the teenager reached for the gun a second time when he was down on the ground. The officer then fired the fourth shot.

How did the witnesses see this? Were they in the car? Was Moore outside the car?

Sounds pretty cut and dry, especially since the dumbarse kept reaching for his gun.

local citizens rally for the 19 yr old with the stolen Lexus reaching for his gun when a police officer approaches.

quote:

Avery Rob knowing for a fact he was a sweet, kind person, and was fatally shot FOUR times for a TRAFFIC VIOLATION because an ignorant, impulsive officer, whom of course was white, THOUGHT and ASSUMED Michael was reaching for a gun


quote:

When did the police become the judge, jury, and executioner? The penalty for the stated alleged crimes is not death. How did it become necessary to continue to shoot someone already down? Why do you handcuff someone who is already dead? Where are the dash cameras and body cameras to tell the story without bias? Why has Thug become the new euphemism for the "N" word? Why are killers like Dylan Roof called youth, arrested without incident? Why has this has death become a routine part of routine stops of black people?

Sounds like a justified shooting. I don't see where the kid left the officer any other choice.

The witnesses were riding with him; they would have zero reason to lie to make the officer's case better.

Play stupid games, get shot dead dumbass.

Sorry I suck at memes.

Just another idiot who got what he deserved. What in the world would posses you to reach for a weapon when dealing with a police officer if you didn't have intent to try and shoot him? This outrage is ridiculous.
