I'm the first to criticize trigger happy cops, but this sounds like it may have been more than that.

Cops aren't always the ones in the wrong.

No, he was shot for crashing into a patrol car and then accelerating towards the officers. Who told you they were shot for "looking suspicious"?

Let's get the whole story.
No!

Most times the problem exists solely with racist scumbag cops who are overtly aggressive with primarily black men. These rogue cops continue to stain honorable LE officers...

I've witnessed it entirely too many times!

I personally believe that most of this crap is due to the fact that LE does not properly scrutinize police applicants. It's solely because of this ineffcient vetting of LE applicants that white supremacist cops are able to leak through the porous filtering process. They therefore are allowed to terrorize black men at will.

Of course, since our judicial system also contains members of the Alt-Right, racist cops are seldom prosecuted or duly convicted.

This $$h*T just has to friggin stop!!!

So what do the cops do when an idiot is trying to ram them with his car? Shoot the tires out. LOL. Sounds like justice was served.

i think they're supposed to run away and let the suspect (who fled police custody last month on gun charges) go free, lest some pinhead accuse them of being 'alt-right racist scumbag cops'

I've got two issues.

1- The goofball who started this thread looking to mislead and gaslight the cops/race issue - when his source article clearly spelled out what the offender did. This is straight of the Russian handbook for causing needless chaos and stirring up controversy.

2- I know cops profile, because I have gotten it. I also believe most of them are not looking to kill someone. It's a mixed bag. It's not all one way or the other. It does not help when we get confrontational with the police.

No? Don't wait to get the whole story? And then you go on to state that, "Most times the problem exists solely with racist scumbag cops...."


Most doesn't mean all. Wait for the story and stop stomping your foot about this one until you get it.

I think the ultimate argument of SJWs is that black men should not be punished for the violence and crimes that they commit.

Is that what we're getting at here? It sure seems like it.

So, just want to make sure we have some facts....


The guy killed was taken in early this year for some type of gun violation....


Won't pull over while being stopped by the police, rams TWO cop cars....and it's the polices fault?




You cannot make this stuff up folks....

Sounds justifiable, but as we have seen, doesn't matter, he was still shot and killed so protests sure to follow.
