As strongly as the OP feels about it he should go find a couple cops, use some obscene language towards them and then make sudden grabbing gestures towards his midsection like he's going for something.

That'll show them

In your first sentence, you lie twice and mislead another time.....

quote:

2 cops shoot

Only 1 cop shot

quote:

unarmed

He was armed, just not with a gun

quote:

running away

he was evading police, which is against the law in every state and a felony in many

quote:

We need more training for police officers because this should never happen.

We need people to comply with our officers and follow the law

Do you know how to avoid interactions with LEO?

Follow the rules and don’t break the law.

We have a low quality video from a single perspective. Let’s see all footage and hear the whole story before we start throwing people under the bus.

Well.....there it is......

Later in the day, the GBI said it had reviewed new footage of the incident that shows "Brooks obtained one of the officer's Tasers and began to flee from the scene."

"Officers pursued Brooks on foot and, during the chase, Brooks turned and pointed the Taser at the officer. The officer fired his weapon, striking Brooks. A copy of this video will be released to the public," the GBI wrote Saturday on Twitter.

According to the agency, "an earlier account" of the incident "was based on the officer's body cam, which was knocked off during the physical struggle, preventing the capture of the entire shooting incident."

Just watched it. Unbelievable. You would have to be an idiot to be a cop these days! Bottoms said the police chief “stepped down”. Yeah right.

She called for the officer to be terminated. and even apologized to the criminal's family!

So if a thug steals an officer's taser.. and points it at him and engages it..... the officer is not allowed to shoot the person!!!?

unbelievable.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Maybe don’t attack the police officers and try and take their weapons?

Don’t forget punching the hell out of the cop a few times.

What a world we live in. Guy passes out drunk, luckily didn’t kill anyone on the road. Cops try and do their jobs, guy fights like hell, punches cops several times and steals their taser after trying to take their gun. Gets killed and now they want the cops fired and the racist mayor is apologizing to the victims family??? Like WTF??

More training won’t fix the problem. The problem is that the state has a monopoly on force.

He wasn't unarmed.

frick anyone who tries to make that a thing. A fighting suspect who gets control of an officer's gun cannot be allowed to just ' run free '.

Ever.

And the reasons are so obvious, a child could understand.

Only we never hear the media or " black leaders " talk about any of that, or that 99% of the shootings are when ( Michael brown ) struggle w/the cops get or attempt to get the officer's weapon.

The gun they wear isn't for YOUR protection, it's for theirs.
