Thank you LEO for putting up with this trash and risking your lives every single day you go to work.

Finally something new to whine about!

If this was an “epidemic” this would not be “news”

the underlying details are that a kid got shot while running away from a LEO who was in no danger from the person he murdered




This isn't even remotely true when this situation was unfolding.

It's enough reason in a lot of countries and would be a non story in those places.

But, if he didn't run, he wouldn't have gotten shot


Or if he didn’t run, he would have gotten shot in the front rather than the back.

Cops have lost benefit of the doubt in these situations.

but if you think the police are dangerous and are looking for a reason to shoot you, then why not try a brand new approach. stop doing things that will likely result in them shooting you however wrong they may or may not be



You mean like the guy who had the SWAT team called to his house as a prank and ended up dead just by opening his door?

Or maybe like the woman in Minnesota who called the cops to report a crime only to get killed by the cops when they showed up?

What about the old guy near Atlanta who got killed when the cops kicked in his door because they were at the wrong house?

Agree most of the time, but for running?? I am sure there is way more to this.

Not that it matters but the background on this might point to why the officer was amped up


Cop was amped up because, like most cops, he is probably a roided up meathead who only became a cop because it’s a free license to beat the shite and occasionally kill people and dogs.

The car was seen fleeing the scene of a shooting a few minutes earlier and had bullet holes in the back window when the officer got it stopped.


There is almost always more to the story. There it is



Ok. How does that justify shooting someone in the back?

If the police thought he was a murder suspect with weapons in vehicle they have an obligation to protect the public. Some of you are so fricking obtuse its scary.


As a member of the public, id want them pretty damn positive that he’s not just a suspect but the actual guy AND that he’s an immediate risk before they start putting their own bullets out into my neighborhood

Do you have similar bigoted opinions of "colored people" and others who you find undesirable?

People have lost their humanity. For real. The world is just a big video game to them.

Cops have earned it with their actions.


And sheep like you are part of the reason why.

As long as they are shooting “colored folk”, all is good, right.

Kid was probably on his way to school or college when the cops decided to randomly shoot him for no reason, I guess. At least that’ll be the narrative.


Exactly. Dindu nuffin.
