Memphis Cops Kill Motorist After Traffic Stop

[Anonymous]

Just ridiculous. This is all in video, you can see with hour own eyes they went far beyond force necessary even buying all the ridiculous arguments. It's clearly murder and someone's defending it.

I have eyes and ears. If you think this is remotely defensible, you have a serious problem. The city and force knew what the cops did was murder they immediately fired them and charged.them.

FIVE men could not contain this unarmed, skinny guy? They were incompetent in so many ways.

May this death be the catalyst needed for more, better and longer police training that includes deescalation methods and building positive police culture.

Again, how did the whole thing start? At least two posters are now asking.

I don’t know. The news said it was a traffic stop. But there may have been another reason for the scorpion unit to go so violent so quickly.

Whatever the reason was, the police need more training on deescalation and appropriate level of force to do their tough jobs.

This was tragic and obviously excessive use of force even if he was a drug dealer or whatever. There was no evidence on the video he was reaching for a gun as the police claimed .they kept kicking and hitting him while he was handcuffed on the ground. It was clearly unnecessary use of lethal force.

What evidence is there of him being a drug dealer? When did this place become infested with racists?

Clearly? Which video shows the evidence of that?

I wonder if there will be any more charges for the cops who stood around and watched.

Depends on which officers you are talking about. The difference between the floyd case and this case is that officers were busy attempting to control the perp in this case.

You are making excuses. That's exactly what you're doing. There is no excuse. It's unacceptable. Point Blank.

Disagree. You disobey cops and when you run then you are partly responsible for what happens. It's not a 50/50 ownership but there is some or we are a lawless country. What did he would think would happen when he ran - a handshake, a high five? Did he deserve a beating? Absolutely not, but he could have laid down and surrendered like 99% of people do but he made a decision to roll the dice. What is an acceptable outcome from running from the police - let go with a citations, free to go on your own way because you were faster?

You are a stupid sack of shit. They were literally yelling conflicting orders at him and then beating him for not complying with both.

Right the non-stop give me your hands command was unclear - got it.

At the same time someone else was screaming get on the ground, while someone else was holding his arm? Have you ever had 5 people drag you from your car at night, pepper spray you, and scream conflicting orders at you? Then tell me what's unclear you moron.

I said I don’t know. I said even if it was something worse than a routine traffic stop that the police need more and better training on deescalation and appropriate level of force.

Even assuming everything this person said was true the video is indefensible. Of course they're just talking out their rear.

Shouldn’t authorities know what (if anything) was in his system? Is it being hidden?

It doesn’t really matter actually. Cops pull over drunk white people every night of the week and don’t beat and kill them.

Drunk teens run from cops and are not beaten.

Drunks after sporting events riot in the street, cops don’t beat them.

Cops can only use force when they believe there is a danger to themselves or the community. There never was.

You can keep denying reality but the rest of us are not going to fall for your bullshit. We get it, you’re glad a black man is dead. Decent people know you’re despicable.

I believe every case of police brutality before the advent of cameras everywhere. Cops have been getting away with this forever. It is a despicable profession for psycopaths.

Not, they were beating him for sport. It is disturbing you can’t recognize that.

Well the police chief with many years of experience disagrees with you, but I’m sure you know better. Sickening!!
