Obviously you don't have the critical thinking skills required to see anything beyond black or white issues. The officers were justified in killing him. Sterling is an illegally armed thug and did resist multiple times. I'm sorry you're not capable of comprehending anything other than that.

Swing and a miss. Typical for you though. How about you ask about the body cams again.

Pretty sad to see his son breaking down at the Press conference or whatever it was.

Festus, it is incredibly reasonable to believe they should have known.

slackster, no offense, but I'm just being honest, I don't believe you have any idea what is "incredibly reasonable" on the part of the cops. I think the opposite. I think you have absolutely no earthly idea what they should have known. Because you are simply an armchair QB. You've never come close to experiencing anything near what these cops did. But it's easy for you to sit back, see a few second blip of a video clip, and play God, and spout off what is "incredibly reasonable" for the cops. It's what fascinates me about people like you.

Then what are you suggesting?

but IF they would have drawn the same people who are defending the tackle would have defended drawing their weapons.

You mean, if they would have drawn, the same people criticizing the tackle would be criticizing the drawing of weapons. (hint...you)

I hear periscope is where it's at.


Half the OT is commenting there, or at least sending hearts.

Yea, that must be it. Right back to the insults when you have nothing left.

Very wrong. When they shoot it is to eliminate the target. They are not trained to wound.


I didn't say they are trained to wound, but they shoot center mass until there is no longer a threat. That doesn't necessarily imply you must kill the suspect. It is a common misconception, but it is important to note. If the suspect is no longer a threat, you cannot finish him off just because you're supposed to shoot to kill.

Periscope is a live streaming app.

You can find people around you live broadcasting from their phone.
