BLM Protests Across The World

[RockSP]

Like the cop that shot Walter Scott, and is now in prison?

Yep because that one case in which justice was served erases all the others where cops get away with murder.

He stabs the cop, and then runs away. He doesn't continue to attack the cop, or begin to attack someone else. He takes off running into a open space. The video is meant to compare to what happened in Columbus but its a dishonest comparison.

He stabs a cop and isn't killed for it. Unarmed people who aren't attacking anyone (cop or otherwise) should get that same courtesy. I made no Columbus comparison. This thread isn't about any one particular case.

That isn't what happened. Only one of the cop's gun fired. A misfire that hit his colleuge, and then justified killing the kid. The article of the released info is pretty clear on that. A kid died because a cop shot another cop. The instances of cops shooting other cops, especially k9 units, is very interesting.

As for the mass shooting part, I imagine just a loose term, as mass shooting and school shooting are intricatly intwined in many minds. It was definitely reported as a school shooting.

From the article you posted;

"Allen says Officer Jonathan Clabough was the only officer to fire, and bullet analysis revealed he shot both Thompson and Officer Willson. The district attorney says a shot went off from Thompson's gun and hit a trash can in the bathroom."

The video is on wbir.com, you can see what happened.

After Chauvin's conviction for Floyd murder, DOJ weighs charging him for 2017 incident involving Black teen: Source

Late last year Minnesota state prosecutors received a series of videos depicting Chauvin's handling of another case three years earlier that by their own description shocked them. The videos, from Sept. 4, 2017, allegedly showed Chauvin striking a Black teenager in the head so hard that the boy needed stitches, then allegedly holding the boy down with his knee for nearly 17 minutes, and allegedly ignoring complaints from the boy that he couldn't breathe.

Chauvin and another Minneapolis police officer were dispatched to a home where a woman claimed she had been attacked by her 14-year-old son and young daughter. After officers entered the home and spoke to the woman, they ordered the son to lie on the ground, but he refused. Within seconds, Chauvin hit the teenager with his flashlight, grabbed the teenager's throat, hit him again with the flashlight, and then "applied a neck restraint, causing the child to lose consciousness and go to the ground,"...

"Chauvin and [the other officer] placed [the teenager] in the prone position and handcuffed him behind his back while the teenager's mother pleaded with them not to kill her son and told her son to stop resisting," Frank wrote, noting that at one point the teenager's ear began bleeding. "About a minute after going to the ground, the child began repeatedly telling the officers that he could not breathe, and his mother told Chauvin to take his knee off her son."

About eight minutes in, Chauvin moved his knee to the teenager's upper back and left it there for nine more minutes, according to Frank. Eventually, Chauvin told the teenager he was under arrest for domestic assault and obstruction with force. The two officers then helped the teenager to an ambulance, which took him to a hospital to receive stitches ...

Chauvin's defense attorney Eric Nelson did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment from ABC News.

I can't say that I'm surprised. Charge and convict that F***** for this. If he has a conviction for a prior offense, it'll probably make his parole less likely. People that do S*** like this don't deserve to be on the streets (let alone be in law enforcement) and the fact that he was able to become a cop speaks volumes.

That’s a long acronym.

It's too good though.

I'm just angry at @RockSP that he busted it out first.

Ladies and gentlemen, I do believe that should have been what is colloquially referred to as a "red flag"....

I get flack for defendig some police incidents, but Chauvin's case was about as clear-cut and unambiguous as you're ever gonna get, and all filmed on camera in broad daylight. I have a hard time understanding anyone watching the video and thinking Chauvin acted appropriately. Also, after subduing Floyd, what were they waiting for? Why not just haul him into the car and leave?

I wonder how they'd feel if it had been a white guy who had a rich father. I know it's a silly question because it would have never happened.

The Louisville Police Department has faced heavy scrutiny over the past year following the police shooting of Breonna Taylor, a black emergency technician who was killed during a botched raid on her Kentucky apartment after three plainclothes officers entered her home while serving a no-knock warrant. Only one of the three officers involved in the raid has faced criminal charges.

AG Garland just announced it on TV.

If they did their job properly without any dodgy stuff going on then there would be no need for redactions and delays.

 

[Sithborg]

Oh yeah, its bad. They are expecting protests, so they are prepping the cops to riot.

Initial reports stated he was shot while driving away, with kids in the area. So like SB said it's very likely the video is really bad.

This sounds crazy.

Yeah, there's no other explanation. Bodycams are supposed to help prove that cops were following procedure and help gather evidence but that doesn't work out too well in the US - where the evidence is often more useful against the cops. They must hate wearing them.

I’m just as surprised (if not more) by the wrong verdict percentages in the other columns. No Trumpers there to explain it all away.

I mean, look at what we see get caught on bodycams. Now imagine what that means when they deliberatively turn them off.

This is news to me as I only heard about this murder after I saw the bodycam footage on social media a few days ago, but the Tyrell Wilson killing was an absolute disgrace & outright, straight up cold blooded murder.

Body cam footage shows fatal police shooting of 32-year-old Tyrell Wilson

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Execution after execution.
