Cop in this case is a POS
Lock him up with the other criminals

Why would a cop get arrested for shooting someone about to throw a pot of boiling water at him? Seems like self-defense to me.
Have you watched the video?

He chose very poorly, both in the moment and in hindsight.

My bad man. Had copied and pasted two things to respond to.

This is way worse IMO. They're a good distance away and it looks like she's cowering when she sees their guns out... then she gets shot in the face. Truly idiotic decision by that (former) cop.

This made national news but that’s as far as it will go. There’s not enough people that will support the cop. And he’s already been arrested. The Floyd case had a lot of people deeply split and the cop wasn’t arrested yet.

I'll bet it pisses you off that he is rightfully charged with first degree murder.
Back the Blue no matter what amirite?

Didn't she threaten them with a pot of boiling water?
Which part was most threatening to you? When she calmly said "I rebuke you in the name of Jesus" or when she said "I'm sorry" and dropped the pot while crouching to the ground?
Call me crazy, but I don't think either of those deserve a bullet in the face.
The cop is also the one who told her to deal with the pot, and then acted like a scared little bitch when she did what she was told. He shot an unarmed women while she was cowering on the ground. frick him and any idiot that supports him.

How does anyone determine she was about to throw a pot of water after watching that video? One other thing I noticed in the full video on YT is him insisting on her calling him “sir” during the conversation on the front porch. This idiot wasn’t leaving until he found trouble.

Some context from the video. She had already poured the water out in the sink, you can hear it on the video. This is made clear when she is holding the pot sideways with one hand above her head before she was shot. There was never any real threat of boiling water and at the time she was shot the only potential weapon she had was the pot she was using to shield herself with.

Dude you don’t light someone up for a pot of boiling water where you have a counter in between you
Not only that, the police had already been there and established she wasn't armed and she was literally holding a pot with her hands, so the likely hood of reaching for a weapon was low. This is a text book situation to use non lethal means of subduing an individual.

If he was arrested it had to have been for something other than that.
