I'm too lazy to look back too, but my memory says he was somewhat of a violent felon. Not rape violent, but not just a drug dealer either.

I'm actually against blanket laws that deny felons their right to self-defense, and definitely don't think the fact that he was a felon meant it HAD to end badly, but in this case he seems to have made a decision to not go back to prison without a fight and he predictably lost the fight.

Honestly this shouldn't even be a story. Resisting arrest while carrying a firearm illegally. Stupid

I think cop #1 by his waist saw the gun and yelled "he's got a gun...gun" I don't know if he had actually pulled it at all which would be tough with two people on top of you attempting to restrain you.


I think we hear

Cop #1: He's got a gun...gun!
Cop #2: Don't you do it! I'll light you up bro!"
Cop #1: He going for it!

*shots

Yes, it is stupid. Doesn't always mean someone needs to die, though.

That is my point as well.

Believing this was a justifiable shooting =/= Sterling deserved to die

I can live with and mostly support the former. The latter is pretty despicable.


So who does "deserve to die"?

I would say that a convicted pedophile that resisted arrest while carrying a gun illegally is about as close at it comes.

It shouldn't be too much of a surprise that the person with gun training wins against the person that probably doesn't have any training.

If you have a gun on you, the cops see the gun, and you don't follow their orders that is very much grounds for being shot.


It depends what you're doing and your proximity to the gun, but again, IF the facts of the case are as many assume they are, then I understand the shooting and it was justified.

quote:

In fact I'll take it a step further, if the cops knew for a fact that he had a gun on him they would of never taken him down to the ground in the first place. They would of pulled their guns earlier and forced him to comply.



That was the point of a few of us last night and where my questions about procedure come into place. If you knew he had a gun, tackling him and taking him to the ground escalates the frick out of the situation since he was simply standing there prior to the tackle (we don't know what he was doing prior).
