don't commit crime and you don't get in trouble..... Funny that, isn't it?

LOL :)

"When you support Blue Lives Matter and they shoot your friends of color."

-Because they had drugs in them and were crazy.
-Because they had guns and started shooting at the cops.
-Because they had a past of rape and murder, and had a knife.
-Because they decided to attack white people because they're white.

Dude, you have nothing but cases of "Black mistreatment", which are all cases of black people being idots.

and the cops always have to shoot multiple times until they're dead? Can't just shoot the foot or anywhere it's not lethal?

Really? The foot is a moving target and they are taught to shoot until there is no more threat. CCP holders are taught the same thing.

Shoot them in the leg you say? Femoral artery. That’s an ugly way to die. Arm? Brachial artery, again pretty nasty.

Center mass until there is no more threat.

shooting the chest will kill. The person can be less of a threat without being dead. Walter Wallace got shot fourteen times. they didn't have to do that.

I’m not saying that was necessary, I’m saying that police shoot center mass. I was taught to shoot center mass simply because of you shoot at the legs and miss you have no idea where that bullet will end up. Sometimes it only takes one, sometimes more. That’s the reality of a shooting situation.

shooting 2 or three times is different than 14 shots.

I have never been forced to draw my gun I self-defense and I hope I never have to. But if I am forced to draw my gun I’m going to fire until there is no longer a threat. If that takes one round or two magazines that’s what I’ll use. Police officers operate the same way.

the thing is, police officers tend to only see the person as a threat once they're dead. Trump banned racial sensitivity training, so the police will remain trigger happy.

I don’t buy that because it makes no sense to see a dead person as any sort of threat. I agree that there are some bad apples but I reject the notion that a uniform turns people into trigger happy monsters. As with most things the truth is somewhere in the middle. As for racial sensitivity training, that’s already a thing. I see videos of people running from the police. Not only people of color but also white people. Why are they running? Is this some kind of harassment? It it just the cows coming home in most cases, their life choices are catching up with them. The rule of thumb is don’t run and don’t pull a gun on a cop. If you do either of these things it is likely to end badly for you.

One, when a target is shooting at you or going crazy because of drugs (and has supernatural strength because of the drugs), there is no reason to try to shoot the offender's legs. In Jacob Blakes's case, it is up to the cops to decide. We, as people sitting behind screens, only get about 30% of detail and info on the current situation. Cops have extreme training in these areas. It was highly likely that Blake was needing more than the minimum two or three shots. I don't know completely why, but we can't make a reasonable judgement based off of one video.

Also. Center mass until there is no more threat.

you mean until they're dead or paralyzed for life.

That is a sad thing that has happened to many people who have been shot, but it is their choice to begin with.

Would it be a good idea to make bank robbery legal because some bank robbers are getting shot in the process? No.

Maybe they should have thought about that before they pulled a gun or a knife on a cop.

Walter Wallace was mentally ill, and his mother was even there to de-escalate the situation. The cops were far enough that they could have shot his foot or leg without shooting any vital areas, and they were close enough that they could have used a taser.

I’m not disputing that. He may not have understood the consequences of what he was doing, but shooting the leg of someone who is moving is damn near impossible. As for the taser, that’s something that we may never know. I want to believe that he exhausted every other option before drawing his gun. All I know for sure is that it doesn’t matter if his mother was on scene, if the officer felt that his life or the life of another person was in danger he was justified in using deadly force.
