Kinda destroys that narrative though hey. And white people won't riot....and claim it was racist.

SMDH ... it's crap like this that give police a bad name ... I would have had to see a weapon before I fired with the man on his knees and me with that type of weapon standing above him ...

Well, narrative aside, was this shooting necessary?
He did make a movementt with his hands at his back. I mean..... look....most shootings are justified...then you have some that may be questionable but still you can understand...and then you have the very rare where you would say wrong move. Walter Scott is an example of that. It is a tough job....I don't know the answer to be honest. If you wait until you see a weapon it is already too late. Which is why people say listen to the commands. And the guy did seem terrified...so who knows if he was so scared and he panicked. It will never be perfect. I don't know the answer to trying to keep thngs safe for cops and civillians while also trying not to pull the trigger too quick. Was it necessary from our point of view.....NO....We aren't there not knowing for sure what is going on and if he has a weapon. From their point of view ....if you waitone second too long and they have weapon...then what? In life and death situations there are only so many rules you can follow. Just my opinion.

Looked like suicide by cop to me. How stupid would you have to be to reach toward your hip/back area in that situation unless you were trying to get shot?

Drunk + AR-15 pointed at you = who knows how any of us would react

Imo the guy was clearly trying to comply with the officer at every step. There were a million different ways to de-escalate that situation. The cop was looking for any reason to pull the trigger, Imo.

I could totally see myself panicking in a similar situation and getting shot while trying to comply... Shocked a jury felt this was justified

Why doesn't anyone ever criticize the prosecutors when they lose a case like this?

This is a murder on video tape. How did the DA fuck this up?

Because the jury thought him grabbing around his waistband was enough I guess. How did the jury find the illegal that shot Kate Steinle not guilty?

Dumb fucking retards on this site defending the blood thirsty pig! Poor guy listening to instructions for over 4 minutes, hands behind head, hands up, left foot over right, crawl!?!!?!?!. WTF dumb pigs didn't know what the fuck to do! More than one cop there. Once he had is hands locked behind his head, one cop go to him and cuff him while the other keeps his gun locked on him!! He didn't reach for shit, was drunk and was shitting in his pants!

Sickening, and usually I side with the cops on these videos. The guy was laying face down with his hands behind his head, this isn't fucking Simon says, you're a cop walk up to the guy and cuff him. Looked to me like his fucking pants were falling down and the guy reached back to adjust his shirt or pants.

What kind of training says you make a suspect crawl toward you?

Why not have him lay flat with his arms and legs spread so the officers can approach and handcuff him?

This is just sickening.

The call into the police dispatch was the deceased was brandishing a rifle ... it was obvious that he did not have the rifle on him when this "COMMANDO" decided to murder him ... I would hope that no law enforcement anywhere would ever hire this idiot again ...

Let's get you drunk and me and three of my friends will point rifles at you and scream instructions. I'm sure that you'll be totally calm and all of your limbs will be under your complete control.

How stupid do you have to be to not recognize how silly your comments are?
