I’ve heard reports is was a boxcutter. Nine armed officers versus a man with a boxcutter.
That is what the updated headline says.
And all he was doing was minding his own business, sitting on a guardrail.
It’s depressing they can send out 9 police officers, but not one person with mental health training.
It was in addition to the boxcutter:
as he stood in the middle of Interstate 65 holding a box cutter and an unidentified “metal, cylindrical object,” the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation reported.
He was a danger to himself. We eliminated the threat.
An off duty police officer in Vancouver, Washington was stabbed by a robbery suspect who was fleeing from police. The pursuing police then shot and killed the stabbed off duty officer.
The only way to stop a good guy with a gun is an idiot with a gun.
Phoenix police demonstrate their mad skillz by punching an unarmed black teenager and arresting her. The videos are all over the place, here’s one
Despite all of the witnesses, the videos and the body-cams, I found this lovely statement: “This incident is currently under review by the Phoenix Police Department,” Justus said. “We are continuing to gather information and ask anyone who may have additional information to please contact us.”
Of course, she was black and you never know what those unarmed black people can do. If you are a drunk white man pointing a gun at the same police, you don’t even go to jail.
To be fair, neither will a black man.
Good point and sadly, very true. Why don’t those silly people learn that they need to be born white? it would save them so much trouble.
But especially if he is pointing a tomato at them.
What about the cop car that nearly runs the guy over at the 0:48 mark? Can cops run people over now?
If it’s OK to slug a 13 year old girl in the face for getting in the way, surely it’s just fine to run people over for getting in the way. If they are too stupid to be born white, they deserve anything they get.
Officer Riggs Kwong, 50, is accused of brutally beating a man and using anti-Muslim slurs during a traffic-related altercation last month
Any word on what Murtagh was doing while this happened?
Muttering, “I’m too old for this shit.”
Does the toilet scene make that a double entendre ?
[asking for a friend]
Cops…not following procedure?
Controversy about the Minneapolis police again. No-knock arrest warrant leads to police killing someone not a suspect.
A guy with a gun permit.
