    Shot within 3 minutes of 1st cop arriving.
    Jacob Blake was shot less than 3 minutes after Wisconsin police arrived at the scene, according to dispatch audio

    Sometime before 5 p.m. Sunday

    A neighbor sees Jacob Blake barbecuing outside his apartment at 2805 40th St.

    I'm not proclaiming that yet, but I would say it's likely.

    Many in the media are comparing/linking this with the Floyd incident. I was very angry at the nonchalant way that officer acted in that video. This incident doesn't evoke the same feeling at all from me. Tensions appear to be very high, and they are because of the suspect's nonchalant behavior.

    I really dont understand the "well you can't vote Democrats if you don't like riots" because two can play that game. Who's president right now? A Republican and they're still doing this stuff

    So you are referring to skin tone when you say "black" and not race. Got it.

    Yes that will interesting to see, you would think the guy coming in like that in an emergency and the police being involved they would, don't know if they need and got a search warrant to do so.

    Reports I heard this morning he WAS the reason the police were originally called and they knew he was a violent criminal with felony warrants before they got to the scene. He then fought with them as they tried to take him into custody.

    After being called because he was threatening the woman who lived there with a knife and had taken her car keys and would not give them. They ran a check on him and knew he had violent arrest in the past and a felony outstanding warrant for the same. They tried to arrest him and he fought with them apparently while armed and then tried to escape giving the appearance of reaching for a weapon.

    What does 3 minutes have to do with anything? Have you seen the video's of him fighting with the police before he gets up and walks around the car to try and flee?

    Do you think people can't see what your immediately-preceding post said? This is blatant dishonesty.

    What type of funding did he say ?
    You need to stay away from RT Russia Today, it can be harmful.
    He didn't, he said the opposite.

    Would that be justice if it was a lawful shooting?

    Weapons or no, felons shouldn't resist / flee arrest. It gets them shot.
