peterhunter86 8,627 Posted September 23, 2016 Report Share Posted September 23, 2016 Amazing how popular the police become on here when they're shooting the right type of people They be even more popular if they nut you. Aye there'd definitely be a whip round for the officer involved :laugh: Haha. You could picture all the back tracking if it turned out he was shot for courseing a hare lol. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kanny 20,711 Posted September 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2016 Could they have been telling him to put his hands on the car and assume the search position? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lab 10,979 Posted September 23, 2016 Report Share Posted September 23, 2016 Right...thought I'd go watch the video. Can anyone explain why he walked around 20ft to the side of his car when I'm guessing all along being instructed to stop? I've yet to see anyone get shot when complying 100% with the police. I havnt seen anything online about the reasons he was walking around to the car . The audio in the dash Can wasn't on apparently . They could have been instructing him to stop, they could have been instructing him to put his hands on the car who knows . If they were instructing him to stop why wait until he's around the side of the car to shoot him All ifs and buts. My guess is they are telling him to get on the ground. Let's not pretend they just ask you to do something and if you don't do it they shoot you straight away. He walks away towards his car....potential threat on the car. He got shot. The officer is at the back of the car, maybe it looked like the window was down. As I said...stop what your doing. Put your hands up and f***ing stand still. Not trying to inflame the conversation here but you reply to my post with " all ifs and buts" . Then straight away said " my guess is" . Same thing Theirs no audio . So guessing or thinking what was said is a moot point at this time . When just watching the video and forgetting audio it looks really bad . Could just as well be them saying "put your hands on the car" as "stop there" . Regardless. The threat there wasn't huge from what I could see in my opinion . If every cop is going to start plugging people when they make sudden moves then there would be dead everywhere. Now if the bloke was a known criminal or was wanted or anything that flags up then I can see then trying to save themselves and that's fine . But he was just a bloke who's car had broke down Stuff could come out in the wash to flush away my points tho. I'm just going on what I've read and seen so far It's a general statement mate. Not aimed at you. We are both guessing I'm afraid. Your points just as valid as mine. But if you think that there are cops over there waking up in the morning, kissing there loved ones before work and thinking "hope some black boy resists my arrest today so I can shoot him dead"....then you think different to me.

Im not in the camp that thinks they specifically go out to shoot black people because they dont like them . At a guess id think a lot of the cops have seen colleagues killed by ghetto kids in shootouts or stabbed etc and are nervous when they they have to accost black people who they think might be involved in gangs. I get that . But shooting someone because your worried their a danger to your life when theirs nothing major to go on apart from the colour of their skin is mental Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think even the most trained police officer might have the right to feel a bit nervous if a suspect is acting strange or not cooperating. It's life and death we are talking about here. Anyway f**k being a cop over there. You can do no right and it's getting worse. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well sure you could make it a more dangerous job but I don't think anyone would seriously suggest the police in America should have their guns taken away. Point still stands in not as dangerous as some would make out... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
