So cops shot him and then wouldn't let the paramedics tend to him
If this is true. Why aren't they in jail?

The duty officer from the International Space Station just Tweeted that he can read the OP from space.

There's already one and while the lady being killed is sad the facts are it's more dangerous for citizens to encounter cops than vice versa.

That's still almost double the % of blacks in the country. How many were unarmed? The better question is how many cops that unlawfully killed citizens are in jail due to their shooting? I bet it's less than 10.

And TBH, I'm not sure the standard I want to set for our police force is perfection or jail.
Why not? That is the standard for interactions with police on the receiving end.

cops killed 1,000+ in 2015. most are justified
50% of the police shootings involved either mental illness or a fleeing suspect.

Hundreds go unaccounted for because the cops can choose whether to send the stats in.

One in ten people shot and killed by police wereunarmed.
Fatal shootings of unarmed civilians sparked much of the national debate over police use of deadly force.
The Post found that 9 percent of shootings involved an unarmed victim. The unarmed victims were disproportionately black. In a Post analysis looking at population-adjusted rates, unarmed black men were seven times as likely as unarmed whites to die from police gunfire.

Nearly half the 184 Georgians shot and killed by police since 2010 were unarmed or shot in the back, an Atlanta Journal-Constitution/Channel 2 Action News investigation has found.
Those findings emerged from the most extensive review of police shootings ever undertaken in Georgia, and cast doubt on claims by police that deadly force was always justified. The AJC and Channel 2 reported in October that every police shooting case since 2010 had been deemed lawful in the state’s criminal justice system.

3am.
Object in hands.
Dark sky.
Scuffle with police.
What do you expect? Sit down. Shut up. Hands on head. No shots fired.

I love how people get on here and defend potential murder suspects. It's hilarious actually.

I love how people here make up their minds about a case without all the facts.
