He wasn’t a danger. |
In your world being high on cocaine and being involved in hit and run aren't dangerous? |
… and trying to carjack someone. But this is a dc message board, so we know no one here thinks car jackings are a big deal. |
You are very focused on the fact that these officers were “armed”. Not one of them used their firearm. Are you suggesting they should have? |
Lord knows how many 100% blameless humans there are out there. You will give THEM your concern when you find them though. |
Let's hear YOUR concern for those who are true victims. |
TF? Being high on cocaine might be dangerous, but it often is not. Being INVOLVED in a hit and run is not dangerous unless you were hit and injured. You may dislike it if your car got hit, but that is not in itself DANGEROUS. |
What on earth? You will go a long way to defend someone high on drugs driving a car (which is 100% of the time dangerous, you moron). DP. |
You must be slow. A car accident may not be dangerous but a hit and run is dangerous because we have no clue about the accident on how it happened or what state the person was in to cause it because he ran…. He cause an accident being high on cocaine and other drugs. He used his vehicle as a weapon as he was impaired. He is lucky that all he got was a taser. Big ups to the police by having the only black police officer touch him physically so that no one can claim racism. The police did everything right. |
Yeah right - six of them on one terrified unarmed man in the ground pleading for his life and not resisting arrest. Don’t let evidence or reality get in the way of your dogma … |
I’m sure all the black prisoners on death row will be delighted to hear that color does not matter in the way justice is executed … |
You are delusional - Most people are horrified by the excessive use of force against a mentally unwell man .., |
When giving the above advice, look in the mirror... |
I know a dc cop and he said nobody enjoys being a cop anymore in his department, because of the hate they get in a regular basis. This was extremely unfortunate that he died, but it was completely preventable, not by the cops but by the young man. He doesn’t get tased if he doesn’t put himself in this position. I believe that there are times to yell, ‘bad cop’ but this isn’t it. A white man in the exact same scenario would of been tased as well. Nobody drew their gun, so they weren’t trying to kill him |
Looking square at it - unlike the unhinged defender of excessive police force … |
