The cop should have used a less intrusive approach. Not really. He was not required to stop and think about other alternatives. No it’s not my uniformed opinion. Here’s a good link.
Scott v. Henrich – Case Brief Summary (Federal Court) | Lawpipe Supreme Court decision. But why would a prejudiced DA care about a Supreme Court decision. |
The only opinion that will matter is the opinion of 12 people on the Jury. All the rest of this is nothing but hot air making money for Talk of the Villages.

The cop is volunteering, because he was charged with 3 crimes. Can't figire out how he was charged with anything. He's not part of a split second decision his partner makes by shooting. Being charged with 3 crimes will make most "volunteer" to testify against his partner in an effort to get out of his own jam. Officers were charged quickly to help prevent violence in fear of what happen in Minneapolis. Lack of compliance with Police officers direction cause most of these incidents.

Let's see; a fleeing person who not a danger to the general public gets killed. The cops know his name and could have picked him up later for resisting arrest. But instead someone makes a decision to take a life... I guess who all should be careful to not do something stupid... does life not have value - think about it ....

I had posted a link from The Today Show this morning about Rayshard Brooks, a tape previously recorded by him, that said he felt that after his incarceration for "False Imprisonment and Credit Card Fraud", he felt that the "system let him down" and that he should have been funded in some way after getting out of prison. Now all those words are gone from any link I can find. They have titles like...a heartbreaking tape in his own words...etc.
It is gone from this forum too, my original link. My post. Sometimes I wonder what is happening in this world. I found many links but not the original one that I felt gave a clear picture of this man who was indeed killed by a police officer after he took the officers taser from him and ran and fired twice at the officer. It was probably removed along with another post that I had responded to, but I am so surprised when I go to a browser that has been "cleaned" by some unseen entity. I am not disputing our moderator, just sad my post is gone, but I am sure it was fairly removed because of my response to another post. I thought we could trust the transparency of the fair journalism in this country but it really looks like we see what "they" want us to see. Here is a version that doesn't have the full transcription;...all I could find. Video emerges of Rayshard Brooks being interviewed months before death: "Look at us as individuals" - CBS News |
GG, I am having the same problem. Factual sources of what Floyd and Brooks were really like, their criminal histories, number of illegitimate children they fathered and so on have literally disappeared from the internet. Even using alternate search engines is not working. The IT powers that be have scrubbed any background data on these men that reflects negatively in any way upon them.
It is digital book burning! |

Geometrically more police officers are innocently assassinated in our country than minority deaths that occur! |
Just as I was preparing to "raise my hand" in opinion. I read bluecenturions response #46 and it mirrors my opinion exactly.
Both officers are being improperly overcharged by a politician that is being investigated for multiple serious charges and if an honorable person would have long ago stepped down while investigations continue. It is laughable that the DA states in his charges that a TASER is not a deadly weapon, when he has just filed charges against another police officer for discharging a deadly weapon TASER! BIG REMINDER: The jury charges are for them to consider NOT what a reasonable person would do in this case, but rather what a reasonable police officer would do. Can't see any way offivers lose! |

I saw the video to which you refer and my take on it is that Brooks suggested that newly released ex-convicts need help upon their release if they are to become productive citizens. They require assistance re-entering society and finding a job; they need a mentor to help them when problems arise. He recognized that he made mistakes and wanted to be a "good father" but had to overcome many obstacles in addition to having a prison record on his resume. I didn't come away from that interview with the notion that he just wanted "funds" or a hand-out. It costs many thousands of dollars to house prisoners just for one year. It would make sense to lower the recividism rate by providing the kind of assistance that Brooks suggested. It would thereby save the government money if a real effort in that direction came to fruition. |

Every one has an opinion. Just settle down and let the lawyers, prosecutors and courts decide on this. All you armchair people with your opinions doesn't mean a darn thing.

I imagine one of the reasons was this. If they would have been, no one would have paid their bail. We had one of those families that if you burnt your ass, you sit on the blister. They weren't mean or unkind but you...YOU...brother. YOU sister were in charge of what happened to YOU. |
If I were on the jury I would vote to convict! He shot the guy when he was running away, he knew the stun gun would not shot again, he knew the guy had no other weapons, he endangered the people in the car that was in the line of fire and he kicked him when he was shot and dying!
