I was waiting for this one. Gotta have this phrase here.

So now we just need an Obama's son and a culture/cultcha, and maybe something about him stealing the car to get to work.

Of course it adds up. Crash an old beater car through the fence, drive away in a new car. What is so hard to understand???

Hell, about 10 years ago a group crashed through the fence of an enclosed area when the Barrett-Jackson auction was here in town and drove away with about a half dozen Porsches, Ferraris, etc.

A college football player (who we assume was a rather strong and fit individual) gets into a physical confrontation with an officer and goes for the officer's gun and gets shot? Entirely plausible.

There is a picture of his car and it's not a beater by any chance. Hopefully there is video somewhere. Hopefully no one loses life without cause.

If more criminals died during the crime, maybe there would be less criminals around. As it is, most criminals are barely punished

He used a car to break through the showroom floor glass in order to steal a vehicle. I've usually found that if you don't do stupid fricking shite, then you don't force a cop to use his judgement in order to subdue you.

One less non-productive citizen.

This is going to get interesting. Sounds more like maybe the guy was drunk or had some type of medical condition and wrecked, was confused/dazed when the officer approached him. I'm sure training camp had just started, maybe heat exhaustion/stroke?

What cops are trying to claim sounds dumb as shite. A single person supposedly crashed their grand Cherokee into a dealers showroom floor in order to steal another vehicle, leaving behind his vehicle with tag, registration, etc. I doubt anyone in college is that dumb.

I'm not saying this was some cold blooded cop murder, but there's definitely more to the story than this.

Who gives a shite. Why this decade do we all of a sudden debate whether we should feel sympathy for people who commit crimes?

I think he's taking about the possibility of an unjustified shooting . You do know that people can be against criminals and also cops who abuse their power simultaneously, don't you? Some people really believe that if someone calls a cop out for being abusive that he or she is supporting criminals.

It doesn't make any sense. You know why? Because the article provides maybe 1% of the total facts needed to make a decision on the case. This is the type of shite the media needs to stop doing, getting everyone riled up over literally no facts.

How is that being a good kid Fuller?

Just like the defaults "stop resisting" and "I feared for my life"

So he was going to crash his suv into the dealership, go to the back where all the keys are, pick which key matches the exact car he wants and steal it all before the cops come in less than 4 to 5 minutes?

This is weird.

A steroid and drug fueled late night crash, grab, and run scenario by a good boy ends in a shooting of said good boy. Same ole same ole. Regardless of any facts found through investigations, protests will ensue, followed by $10M lawsuit. Family gets paid in a civil suit.

Change Cherokee to Tahoe in this story. If Obama had a son it would be this kid.

Guys tries to run, cop shoots? Also entirely plausible.

Yet, when the forensic evidence shows it was a contact shot and not from the back, I am sure the narrative will change to, "it's entirely plausible the forensics/crime scene/medical examiner personnel fabricated the evidence to cover up this rogue cop's actions."
