Chicago releases dash-cam video of fatal shooting after cop charged with murder

So it's OK to murder people if they are on drugs? And it's especially OK to murder people if they are carrying a knife? Or just if a "thug" is carrying a knife?

Uh did this kid murder a pregnant woman in her own home?

yeah that doesn't make you look racist at all.

 

So quoting statistics, which are based on numbers, is racist? There's quite a few people who would be suprised to find out I'm a racist, most of all, me.

I'm sorry I'm a member of the Klan because I accurately quoted a crime statistic. For what it's worth, most mass shootings are committed by white people, but let me guess, you won't call me racist against whites for saying that, huh? Hypocrite.

Well, I'd continue this battle of whits, but (1) - I see you are unarmed, and (2), that cross in my backyard isn't going to burn itself...

Take care!

 

Worse are those Demo Politicians looking to create racial tensions going into a Presidential election. Knowing their only chance to win is to divide people up.

 

I have.

They turn into superman. A crazy out of control superman. It's a pretty scary thing.

I still remember one incident during the 70's when it took eight deputies to hold down one skinny hippie who was on PCP while other deputies tried to handcuff him. He has already flipped over a VW bus.

A human on PCP is more dangerous than a dozen ISIS suicide bombers.

Anyone on PCP are a threat to society and should be shot on sight.

 

Is it OK for you to misrepresent the facts?

 

He does after be peacefully submits to the arrest

So again show me where you have a right to do PCP, terrorize people with a deadly weapon, destroy property, disobey the lawful orders of the police to drop the deadly weapon in your hand and continue to terrorize me and destroy property.

In order to receive due process you must first submit yourself to the judicial system.

 

Your odds of getting shots rises exponentially when you take PCP, run out on a street with a knife then disobey cops trying to protect you and everyone around you.

Technically sure, he deserved a trial. But he made the decision to commit suicide by cop instead. His problem. Society is better off without him. Don't mourn this filth. Feel sorry for people who die in an accident or from cancer. Not this guy.

 

Normally I'm always on the side of the police, but based on the video, I just don't see why it was necessary to gun this kid down, let alone why the cop kept firing.

I burn this car in protest.

 

What I find interesting about this case is that a first degree murder charge satisfies the "libs" but there is no way in hell the state will ever be able to convict this guy of first degree murder (premeditated murder)...

This isn't the first time a Chicago cop has been over charged in a murder (or had the wrong charges levied against him/her).... This same thing happened here a few years ago... A cop was charged with manslaughter, yet the jury determined the murder was actually first degree murder (but he wasn't charged with first degree murder) and murder didn't meet the statute of manslaughter so the cop walked...

 

So he deserved to be shot 15 times while he was on the ground. Plus please explain why he was the only officer shooting??? The pig is a murder

 

Smashing fun irony: you talking smack about intelligence while misspelling. "Whits" Hilarious.

 

The problem here is that leftists and race-baiters have yelled wolf so many times, that no one really listens when a case like this one comes along. Here you have a kid that was stoned, slashed someone's tires, and was walking down the middle of the street brandishing a knife. Did he break some laws? Yes, but they were not capital offenses. He then refused police orders to stop, and drop the knife. Now, your in the felony area, but still not a capital offense. The police had the suspect isolated, and could have used non-lethal methods to force complience. But instead, one officer chose to act as judge, jury and executioner. Claiming a threat that no one else sensed, he (and he alone) opened fire. After the suspect was down, the officer continued shooting emptying his gun into the the suspect. Sixteen shots. The officer was then going to reload his gun to continue firing. There was nothing justifiable in this situation. The officer should plead guilty, and save the taxpayers the money of a trial.

But this situation does demonstrate a real underlaying problem. First, you have a prosecutor that waits a year to bring charges against an obvious crime. She waits until the court rules that she had to release the dash-cam video, to decide to bring charges. It looks to me like the judge ruined the city government's plan to cover the murder up.

My question is whether Obama's decision not to call for a Justice Dept investigation have anything to do with the Mayor being his old COS?

 

hello pot meet kettle

 

OK, that was funny.

 

He was trying to kill a cop?

 

Ok, I have to give credit where it's due, I screwed myself on that post.

*facepalm*

 

Lmao! And you took my post with grace.
+5 for you.

 

Dude was running around with a knife (which is highly ironic considering "libs" claim people are only violent with guns) then the cop shoots this guy 16 times (ironically with a gun)...

Was this murder? I think so, certainly not first degree murder tho....

 

I know all that but did he actually attack or try to kill a cop? Thats the first I'd heard of that.

 

2 seconds before that cop shot, had that kid (who was high on PCP) took off down that sidewalk, grabbed someone, and slit their throat, these same people would be crying cops didn't do enough stop it.

Admit it, they can't be right in the eyes of the left.

 

he was boxed in on all sides by four cop cars and who knows how many cops, this is what we pay pros to handle, but he went the path of a murder and should be treated as such

 

He didn't try to murder the cop... Was he unstable and dangerous? yeah, but not to the point of being shot 16 times...

I don't believe this was a racial issue, more like a stupid cop issue and a hard ass police department issue (I'm from Chicago and they're hard asses)...

They could have tased the kid....

 

Lol. I just had a funny memory. Have you seen the Big Bang Theory episode when Sheldon gets tased?

 

No, because I don't watch TV. I have seen the show but I really don't enjoy it..

 

You obviously did not watch the video. The suspect was in the street, not on a sidewalk. There was no one else around, and the officer claims he was in fear for his own life. As one police officer reviewing the video pointed out, there were non-lethal was to force compliance. They could have tazed him, or even pulled a Rodney King on him. But he did not have to die, and the officer did not need 16 shots to bring him down. Giving this officer's history, and the number of shots fired shows there are some unresolved rage issues.

If you check my posts, you will see that I usually side with the officers in these cases, but there is nothing to justify this shooting. Nor the local government's attempt to cover-up the crime.
