They weren't wearing body cams. Their department doesn't have them.

@steph @realcaseyrollins is there a server in northeast us / eastern Canada where I could get it from?

Ubuntu seems to be taking a lot of time, it could be my connexion however.

I think we are on the same page more often than you realize honestly. When we do disagree it tends to be on minor points or points that just arent very easy to determine factually what happened.

Our guts tend to disagree, but our logic often tends to agree on many subjects I find.

Im always naturally suspicious of cops as they do have a habit of planting evidence and covering up their murders when they happen. so to me body cam footage or something more concrete to show he was clearly reaching for his weapon will go a long way to settling any doubts... But for now I do concede that if the knife turns out to be legit and if it is true he was reaching for it then the cops had justification in firing, even if I feel their reaction was disproportionate to the situation.

No i agree, if he was actually trying to get a knife to fight officers, and especially considering they already tried to tase him, then I could see self defence being appropriate. I still feel they over reacted, but its less grievous in that case.

Fair, then id say this is a bit ambiguous.. specifically because the knife is on the floor (which suggests he may have had it in his hand when shot.. Thought here SHOULD have been body cams so we could see if this is the case.

But yea if it can be shown he had the knife in his hand when shot or was clearly reaching for it then I would cut the officers a bit more slack. A body cam would have went a long way to prove this. Ultimately i suppose i will wait to see wht evidence in that regard comes to light to confirm he was actually reaching for the knife.

@valleyforge @realcaseyrollins

@freemo @realcaseyrollins @realcaseyrollins apparently there was a knife in his car. As for the number of shots I would say to both of you that under pressure like that, if you think someone is going to try to kill you, youre not going to be able to carefully consider all of your actions. Youre trained to shoot center-mass and shoot until the threat is stopped

Jacob Blake forcefully resisted and fought police officers (for the second time). Kyle Rittenhouse surrendered himself to authorities. This is why they were treated differently. twitter.com/scrowder/status/12 #Crowder

TikTok is just "people of Walmart" for Zoomers anyways

@realcaseyrollins @11112011 No, it isn’t? It’s socialism toward capitalistic entities, but the giving of the bailout money is inherently anti-capitalistic action in itself.
