Smapti, do you think either you or I would get off the hook if we had shot someone under similar circumstances?
I don’t think my black ass would.
I could see grounds for an involuntary manslaughter charge here.
. . . that the victim was about to explode an IED.
. . . that the victim was about to rape a child on the sidewalk beside the crash.
. . . that the Baby Jaysus commanded the officer to shoot the victim.
. . . that you, Smapti, are incapable of rational thought when it comes to police authority.
So even when I agree that the officer should have been charged with manslaughter, I’m “irrational” because I don’t believe he intentionally tried to murder the guy?
This is the one. Unfortunately, he also seems incapable of recognizing it.
Here’s another one for Smapti to jerk off to:
This happened over a year ago, btw, with no one in the chain of command responsible for the cover up ever being held accountable. Even now that the video is out, who knows if even the sack of shit murdering mother fucker cops here will see the inside of a jail cell - nevermind their accomplices in the cover up.
The original story as the police put it:
Suspect resisted arrest (arrest for what? Who knows, bicycle riding while non-white I guess), pulled out gun, shot one of the officers, officers return fire.
That was the official line, and I’m sure Smapti and others of his ilk would have swallowed the story hook line and sinker, along with the officer’s cocks, I’m sure.
What the video ACTUALLY shows:
Officers tackling suspect when he tries to go around them. The suspect is carrying a gun (no mention of whether it’s legal or not), however it’s dropped in the scuffle and lying a distance away from the officers and suspect. Of course, the penalty for carrying a gun in America is death, right CC proponents? Because it certainly did not pose any sort of threat to the officers lying on the ground away form the suspect. Regardless, cop number one, opens fire, hitting his partner in the stomach. Cop number two exclaims he is shot, suspect says “I didn’t shoot anyone”.
First cop stands in front of suspect, who is lying prone on the ground, and fires once. Second murdering cop, then looks around to make sure no one is looking, and fires three shots into the suspect’s back as he lies on the ground. They then jump on him to, apparently, attempt to asphyxiate him.
They straight up murder him as he begs for his life.
We can’t have this. We can’t allow this to happen anymore.
Video (VERY DISTURBING)
Story:
Did you watch your own cite? Because whoever posted this video seems to think the officer’s gun is the one that was dropped, and the officer can clearly be seen picking it up and using it as if it was his own gun after his partner is shot.
If your hatred for the police is so great that you feel compelled to spin lies that even your own cite doesn’t propose to tell, then I can’t take the rest of your claim in good faith either.
'Did you read your own cite? Because whoever posted this video seems to think that the Nazis put the gas chambers in building A, when clearly the gas chambers were in building B.
If your hatred for the Germans is so great that you feel compelled to spin lies that even your own cite doesn’t propose to tell, then I can’t take the rest of your claim in good faith either.’
Cute. The video clearly shows that Officer B’s gun is not in his possession when Officer A is shot.
I was going by what I read in the story.
I don’t have the stomach to watch a video of a guy being murdered by two cops.
Also what iiandyiiii said.
Well, why believe your own lying eyes when you can take the word of an anti-cop propagandist instead?
I haven’t seen the video yet, but as far as issues relating to police authority, I easily trust random internet person more than you. You can’t be trusted in any way on anything related to this issue.
Smapti, do you think the suspect shot the officer? On what basis?
There are three people with guns in this encounter; Officer #1, Officer #2, and the suspect. Officer #2’s gun was not in his possession when Officer #1 was shot. It is highly improbable that Officer #1 shot himself.
Therefore, unless we suppose the existence of a fourth gunman, the suspect is the only person who could have been the shooter.
Based on your assumption of what is highly improbable, I gather.
L.A. Times citing Los Angeles County Sheriff’s officials:
Smapti is incapable of comprehending that the victim’s gun was on the ground, and the officer’s gun was not in the officer’s holster because it was in his own hand when he shot the other officer.
Smapti is incapable of comprehending that by the first officer shooting the second officer and not stating that it was an accidental shooting by him rather than a deliberate shooting by the victim, the second officer proceeded under the mistaken belief that he had been shot by the victim and needed to defend himself by killing the victim.
That Smapti is incapable of comprehending this, despite the acknowledgement of the LACSD as well as the supporting the video, speaks volumes about Smapti’s mental illness.
[QUOTE=Your own cite]
Authorities are still trying to determine who fired the partner’s gun during the struggle.
[/QUOTE]
Ahem.
Smapti, either your vision is severely impaired, or your synaptic gaps are too wide, for you ignore the two video freezes in which officer was holding the gun immediately before he shot the officer and immediately after he shot the officer. Also note that the Sheriff’s office did not have the video when it made its statement.
Could it be that the victim deflected the officer’s gun to defend himself from being shot, resulting in the officer shooting the other officer? Possibly, but that is not relevant to the issue of the officer who shot the other officer failing to communicate this to the officer whom he shot, thereby resulting in the shot officer shooting the victim.
You truly are nuts.
At 0:50, Officer #2 drops his gun, as the video demonstrates. The gun remains on the ground until 1:15 when Officer #2 picks it up, as the video demonstrates. Unless Officer #2 is strong in the Force, he did not shoot Officer #1.
If I am wrong about this, then the ballistics will prove me so. I wonder why none of the anarchist propaganda outfits promoting this story are talking about the ballistics.
Even if this scenario were true, it would still not forgive him for running from the cops in the first place.
You say while advocating for a man who shot a cop while resisting arrest.
You’re fucking blind, a baldfaced liar, or both. #2 immediately picks up his gun; it’s clearly in his hand at 0:55. At 1:15 he puts his hand down to steady himself. The gun is already in his hand; he’s not picking it up.
