I'm not disagreeing with you. Just noticed that it was reported that the police had an open warrant on Mr Blake and they were there to arrest him.
This was on a news clip and I don't represent it as fact. Just an fyi.
I don't think the police shot Mr Blake because of his arrest history. I could be wrong as the investigation is on going. It looks like Mr Blake fought with the police on a newly released video and won that fight. Then we see on the original video that Mr Blake acted with total disregard for 3 police officers pointing their guns at him while he went into his SUV. His actions seem on the surface to have lead to him being shot.
I support police reform, blm and prison reform. I will support protest if evidence comes forward that shows a different story.
