                                                 I'll wait until the facts come out before taking sides.

     IF the cops were wrong,they deserve whatever they're charged with.And just 

because the guy was a double amputee,& in a wheelchair doesn't make him innocent.

                  Cue Jessee Jackson & Al Sharpton in 1,2,.......

 

                I also get really irritated with the knee-jerk reactions in cases like this,when

the rioters & looters turn out & destroy local businesses (some of them Black owned).

according to a UK tabloid so take it for what it's worth.

 

I saw the vid and it's pretty obvious dude was seriously mentally ill. He'd just stabbed someone with a long kitchen knife (unprovoked), he threatened cops with it, they tazed him twice with no response, dude ran off on bare stumps with knife in hand. When he turned on the cop following and threatened to throw it, they opened fire. He was likely bipolar I in a mania faze with psychotic break. Obviously this guy should have been in a psych ward, but with a breakdown in the mental health care system, the police are the last line of lethal force protection for the public. 

 

After seeing the vid, I'm with this guy's viewpoint.

Your analysis is kind of like watching porn with a gynecologist.

       I guess this means he "Didn't have a leg to stand on".

 

      And how are the cops to know if a guy/girl has a serious mental problem?

When someone pulls a gun or knife on you,sometimes you only have a split

second to make a decision - there's no time for "Let's sit down & discuss this".

So a guy with no legs and a knife is a threat? I think the buckle end of a belt would be enough to take him out. 

You'd think so, but dude stabbed a random person, threaded to throw said knife at cops so they tazed him twice with no effect.

 

To avoid being called a pornographic gynecologist again, I'll replace any technical terms with more colorful language to make it more enjoyable. Dude was loopy as shit, so maybe a dart gun loaded with lithium and thorazine would cool him out. Moot point though, because police policy for dealing with crazy knife wheedling amputees doesn't include the use of buckles or administering psych meds with a dart gun. What got this guy killed and someone stabbed is he wasn't put in the booby hatch on a 5150 before it was too late.

I certainly admire the effort, and it was more colorful and entertaining.  In his defense, he didn't exactly call you a pornographic gynecologist...🤣

We have seen and heard nothing but doom and gloom from the wackjob democrat party since they lost the election in 2016, they are the problem with this country, and things have gone downhill fast since the vegetable took office.

 

               It really irritates me how they keep wanting to spend more money,

and keep raising the Debt Ceiling.Nobody else in that party,it seems,wants

to acknowledge that there's a problem.

         And every year they want to raise it,they use scare tactics like it's an

EMERGENCY!,& we have to raise it to avoid a shut down.

         I didn't like it when the Trump administration did it either.
