Is there ever any middle ground in these threads? I mean nobody can think that the cops were 100% right or 100% wrong in this, can they?




You're replying to LNCHBOX, the pro-cop equivalent of LSUTANGERINE.

Because then you'd be saying why didn't they tase him (which they did BTW).

this bitch is on tv advocating rioting and disorder in Baton Rouge. She should be locked up for inciting a riot

in this snippet can you see his hands?





You can hear the cop say he is going in his pocket, cop pulls his gun, one cop yells he has a gun.


Boom, dead.

Now we will see 100 pictures of this K5 graduation and hear NeyNey from the video scream they kilt him.

Insults instead of answering my questions for you. SO typical of the people that act like I'm the a-hole in these threads.

I'm aware that they tased him

but if they knew he had a gun the whole time, why give him so much opportunity to use it beforehand if that is all that is needed to shoot him?

I'm just trying to understand y'alls logic

Having a gun and resisting arrest is the very definition of getting shot.

Holy shite, that is the single most dumbest thing I've ever seen posted on this site...and I used to go round and round with Mr Clean




I think you're missing his point. Resisting arrest with a gun on you doesn't always lead to the death of the perpetrator. There are situations where it ends much more optimally than this one.

This is exactly what I mean... you only ask questions to instigate. "why not just shoot him when they roll up?"...fricking serious dude? You ask stupid questions and contribute ZERO to any thread you post on. You think you by making these "quick witted" responses that people will believe that you are intelligent... It's rather comical

Because of all the other times where the perp defenders shout that very thing. Now it happens and you want cops not to do it?

and i dont think thats any kind of scorched earth anti-police stance, simply that i think rarely do we end up with a dead guy and 2 fighting for their livelihood unless both sides missed some chances to de-escalate along the way. certainly plenty of exceptions to that rule.


I think they should de escalate whenever possible, but Alton has been around long enough to know you can't resist cops like that. They weren't just going to walk away, and he knew that.
He knew he had a gun, he knew he would end up in prison. He should have accepted that fate. Once he resisted, it was very likely he was going to die.

I think we should train officers differently too, but there's no way we are moving to a paradigm in which officers don't react violently to a large man resisting them who has a gun in his pocket.

Gary chambers has made the stage now.

Edit: he actually sounded pretty balanced until news cut away from him.
