how long do you have wait to defend yourself when someone is assulting you? That's the question
There is no indication in that video that a single punch was thrown. The guy was shot within a second of getting within arms reach of the off duty cop. There was no car behind or in front of him, he easily could have backed up a few feet, taken his gun and badge, and told the guy to back off.

Apparently the pro cop guys have fallen out of this thread, because there is no justification for what he did. Wouldn't expect cops to ever say that one of their own would lie to justify a murder.

are you kidding me?


drive away and leave a dangerous and violent criminal on the street to rampage away????? has your mind been so clouded you think this?






really?




punching someone in the face is a violent felony. period.




for the sake of argument, lets suppose I am standing on the sidewalk right by the attack. The cop takes a punch then drives off....


im standing there, this guy looks at me and decides I need to receive his brand of justice. so he beats me half to death.




I later find out that was a COP WITH A GUN that drove off...


Im suing the police officer and the police department for not doing their job.






This off duty police officer did his job. period.

It generally is advice that is gave everyone. Including the advice the police will give.

Police say both men pulled over at a red light, and Small exited his vehicle and punched the off-duty policeman repeatedly through an open window. Isaacs had pulled out his service weapon and fatally shot Small.
And? Dumbazz dead guy assaults a man through the window of his car. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Thankful it was an armed off-duty cop this thug decided to attack, rather than some random, innocent person.

What are you babbling about? Most of the so called pro cop position is in reality an anti-thug position. When life long criminals have a run in with the cops and resist arrest , most people know eventually something will go wrong. Why do you people stand up for pedophile , thieving violent dirtbags all the time? When it is police brutality in reality, lots of people had a problem with it, until that is BLM came and FFed it all up.

This line of reasoning makes too much sense! Especially for those who want this guy to be another "victim"

Victim? No, more of a moron who was unjustly killed. If it had been just, the one who shot would not have felt compelled to lie about it.

I support the idea of people having guns. I understand the problems of dishonest people with guns though.

If you bothered to watch the video, you'd see there was no assault.
