He (felon) had no knife in his hand. He (occifer) overreacted. If you can’t discern this from the video, tenderize your reproductive organs with a claw hammer, and then do 100 cartwheels with no hands. [/quote]

I’ll repost this for you.

Have fun with that hammer. [/quote]

This isn’t a link to a video. Read my post again Opey.

It’s an in depth report of what actually happened and includes still frames of the video which show the knife.

Inconvenient for you?

I don’t see a knife in the video, or in the stills. I do see a report indicating that a man was shot 11 times.

He was shot while untangling his feet from a seatbelt, hardly a threatening gesture.

There does look to be something in his hand, but the pixelation is too high to be able to tell that it was a knife.

Oh, a pixelation problem. I guess that makes sense. I just thought he had one of those knives they used in Double Dragon.

Yea, I mean what’s threatening about an armed felon at large trying to exit a vehicle while being apprehended.

Holy shit. Well I hate to say this, but it looks like cold blooded murder to me.

I mean the guy was kind of frantic coming out of there, but I don’t think that’s any good reason to feed em a lead casserole like that. Also is it standard procedure to cuff a corpse?

Anyway I understand why cops go around all tweeked up on paranoia. It’s a dangerous profession. Sometimes it’s bound to result in a situation like this.

  1. The suspect was a parolee.

  2. The suspect was given verbal commands multiple times.

  3. The suspect did not comply.

  4. The suspect had a deadly weapon (knife).

  5. Officers are trained that is suspect is within 20 feet of you, knife can and so circumstances will beat gun. If they decide to rush you before you can draw and discharge your weapon.

  6. Officers are trained to ‘stop the threat’. If this means 1 shot or 10, it’s besides the fact.

  7. Armchair QB’ing is very easy to those that have never been trained or put in that situation. That’s why the courts use the way a “reasonable officer” acts/percieves/reacts etc. instead of Joe citizen who has a subscription to High Times.
