However you are so out of touch with reality. The backlash to Ashli came because there had been months of violent riots which burned down police headquarters, attacked the White House and federal court buildings and all the police were told to stand down and lethal force was never used to protect anything.


bullshite.

Remember when this woman was resisting arrest...?



I guess the cop should've just shot her in the back of the head, right?

That being said, you seem to be implying that the above scenario is the norm. If so, then you are being disingenuous.
It happens more than it should.

Again, GTFO. people of color have gotten away with all sorts of resisting where nothing happens to them. Attempting a whataboutism here is fricking comical.

More bullshite.

Sometimes I like to point out inconsistencies.

A white woman getting shot in the back of the head by a black cop for resisting arrest would spark great outrage on these boards. You can pretend that's not the case, but then you would be disingenuous - at best.

You calling anyone else disingenuous while trying whataboutisms in a thread where some piece of shite resisted and got what logically was coming is just too much.

Any info released on why the driver was running from and then fighting with the cop? Outstanding warrants? Drugs? Language barrier? Something else?

Cop maybe could have taken a different approach, but when the guy takes your taser and is lifting you off the ground, it’s hard to blame the cop for pulling his weapon.

Nice deflection. Just because you coin cute words doesn't invalidate someone's point.

You want to think that the government gunning people down in the street like dogs is okay, that's on you. Some of us don't want to live in a police state, still believe that people are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law, and remain consistent on the fact that it's not okay when no one else's lives are at stake - whether it's a black man or a white woman.

Sometimes it is. Actions have consequences.

That all goes out the window when you resist and attempt to take an officer's weapon.

You're an outright liar if you think that white woman being shot in the head for resisting arrest wouldn't have garnered outrage.

But using your cute term, "whataboutism" just shows that you hold people to different standards. What you're implying is that a black cop shooting a white woman resisting arrest isn't comparable to a white cop shooting a black man for resisting arrest. And that you can't even see the comparison as valid just exposes you as a hypocrite.

Guess we'll never know since only certain color combos are widely reported.

You're right, getting shot in the back of the head isn't being gunned down like a dog, it's being executed.

I’ve been pulled over quite a few times and my first thought isn’t, let me try and grab this guys taser.

Take your fricking ticket and move on with your life.

How about a white male named Tony Timpa, killed just like Floyd yet not a peep heard.

Explain to the class how a white woman is a comparable threat to a 250 lb cop as the gentleman that was attempting to take control of lethal devices to that 180-200 lb cop

Idiot

No reasonable person can watch that interaction and what happened and compare it to an execution. Is possible a reasonable person could find fault with the officer I suppose (I’m willing to listen to the argument), but equating it to an execution is a non starter.
