How bout we start talking about all the white and Hispanic guys that get shot by cops too? Why do black people get so much coverage?
From what I see so far it looks pretty damn unnecessary, I just wish there wasn't always so much emphasis on the word "black" when these things happen. It's race baiting and exploitation at the same time.

We do...
The rate of whites and hispanics being gunned down is abysmal to what the black community is dealing with in this country.
Look at the demographics of prison populations and tell me what you see...
Must be all those crazy 'darkies' running wild on the streets, stepping on the white mans shadow

A massive disproportional amount of blacks convicted of murder, rape, sexual assault, physical assault, robbery, theft, ect.
Did those crimes NOT have real victims with real perpetrators?

Found the full story: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2016/07/07/minn-cop-fatally-shoots-man-during-traffic-stop-aftermath-broadcast-on-facebook/
This is some bullshit. Happened in Luisiana too.
Its because cops automatically believe that all blacks have guns and shoot cops whenever.
Paranoid trigger happy cops mans. Cops are evil pigs and should not carry guns. Murderous bastards.

You realize what you are saying, right?
I'm not agreeing with you nor disagreeing, which is kinda weird for me...
but can the issue really be that skewed? Is an entire race of people more prone to violence?
I literally can not fathom that.

So you're making judgments WITHOUT knowing any of the facts of the case, did you already forget about the false rushes to judgment in the Martin and Brown cases?

Its not really so much a race thing as it is a cultural thing, but yes, clearly they are more prone to it. That's not to say only black people are prone to negative traits though.
But it's getting of topic here because as far as I've seen this man didn't do anything wrong, but at the same time you can hear in the cops voice he feels like he fucked up and he's scared, at least to me it doesn't sound like a guy who shot him just because he's black.

You say that sarcastically, but I'm willin to bet that is a contributing factor. Like I said I think it's more of a cultural thing than a race thing. It would make sense why it's the younger black men that are causing more crime than the older ones. The same kinda people you see on Facebook posting pictures of wads of money in their mouths with a gun pointed at the camera.

Listen to the damn cop standing there as the guy bleeds out making excuses for what he did. Literally crying. We all know what happened. An ill trained, fearful man child who has no business being in a uniform fucked up and executed a citizen.

If the scenario that you outlined did actually occur, then hopefully justice will be served.

This is salient IMO. You can really hear it in his voice. I work with an ex-cop. Immature as fuck even at my age. The kind of man who should never have been allowed to be a cop. Vindictive, aggressive and dishonest as they come.
Give an immature and unwise man a gun and this shit IS gonna happen.

It's clear that American cops have poor or negligent training. This is the only country in the modern world where cops routinely kill citizens. It's happens multiple times a day. Our crime rates aren't that different than other western countries, yet our cops kill people at a rate 100 to 500 times more often

Yeah, whether this is actually a case of prejudice or not, the requirements to become a cop are definitely sometimes too minimal it seems.

Anything short of that guy actually pointing a gun at the officer does not warrant lethal force. It's a fucking traffic stop. Why does he even have is gun out.

Maybe he did actually tell the guy not to reach once he said he was CC and had reason to believe he was going for a gun. Most likely though he just freaked out and shot him after the guy said he was reaching for his wallet. Sad thing is even though nobody wants to keep making this about race if that's a white man in the driver seat nothing would've happened.
I know we don't know the whole story but these cases are all pretty similar and almost always seem to be an overreaction by the officer because he saw a "gangster" and "feared for his life".
The cops are out of control and they will shoot anyone who flinches wrong, white or black. But let's be honest, if this guy was white the entire gun rights community would be losing their shjt right now about a second amendment patriot being executed simply for exercising his rights.

Every case is different and most of these "overreactions" end up being justifiable force.
They said Darren Wilson overreacted before we knew the facts of the case, so nothing is similar in these situations.
With all of that being said, this case does appear to be a overreaction, let's get the facts before rushing to judgment.

There are good cops but they are part of a corrupt system run by the fraternal order of police. Police organizations really do not operate that differently than criminal street gangs, using intimidation and violence when necessary.

I've come to notice four very distinct topics that seem to get the USA members fully wound up here:
1. Guns/gun control 2. Abortion 3. LBGT stuff 4. Politics
So, to all you noobs out there, start and participate if you want to make yourself known.

Really? The cop had her at gun point. You think she would be alive if she tried to give him aide? How about the cop help the guy he ended up murdering. Instead he stands there quivering and making pathetic excuses for being a pussy who can't handle the slightest challenge without shooting someone
Because you know what happened, please enlighten us.
Listen to the damn cop standing there as the guy bleeds out making excuses for what he did. Literally crying. We all know what happened. An ill trained, fearful man child who has no business being in a uniform fucked up and executed a citizen.
I'd rather not make a rush to judgment based on prejudice.
If the scenario that you outlined did actually occur, then hopefully justice will be served.
"An ill trained"
How come liberals always think they are qualified to determine whether a LEO has been properly trained or not?
It's clear that American cops have poor or negligent training. This is the only country in the modern world where cops routinely kill citizens. It's happens multiple times a day. Our crime rates aren't that different than other western countries, yet our cops kill people at a rate 100 to 500 times more often
That doesn't mean they're not properly trained, when a citizen pulls a gun on a cop or starts firing bullets at them, that will usually result in the citizen getting killed, that's called a justifiable killing.
Many US citizens legally and illegally have guns, that fact changes the policing tactics because of that reality, ignoring that obvious fact makes you argument disingenuous.

There are good cops but they are part of a corrupt system run by the fraternal order of police. Police organizations really do not operate that differently than criminal street gangs, using intimidation and violence when necessary.
True, but if it's necessary then it's necessary. The problem is using violence when it ISN'T necessary. Every cop I've encountered has actually been pretty pleasant to deal with, and I've had a couple black people with me during one of these incidents too and they were treated no different, I know this is anecdotal but still. But I live in a smaller town, cops are usually a lot easier to deal with if they're not dealing with a lot of people themselves.

That's fine if a guy pulls a gun, but let's be honest, there are a lot of cases where nobody is pulling a gun and they still get shot.
You want to talk about not prejudging, how about we start with the cops not using lethal force until someone is clearly attempting to use lethal force. Lowering your hand, or scratching your nose or running away or being disrespectful is not justification for shooting someone. Cops first priority should be protecting the lives of citizens, not their own. If they can't handle a little risk, they have no business being a cop. If they want to be called heros like they are always bitching about, maybe they should act like heroes instead of pussies.

"nobody is pulling a gun and they still get shot"
That's true because a knife or a violent person can also cause a great deal of physical damage. Many people thought Wilson wasn't justified using his gun despite the fact that he got sucker punched on his eye socket and almost had his gun stolen in the process.
"If they can't handle a little risk, they have no business being a cop"
That's also true, but is being attacked by a 300 lb thug "a little risk"? No, for some cops it's a weekly and monthly occurrence.
I have always said we have over-policing in the US, stop the war of drugs and the unsaid quotas for tickets, and many of these altercations end up going away.

I agree, I think most people wouldn't have an issue with a new standard of "justifiable force".
I'm not sure taking lessons from other places is going to help the problems inside of the US.

Your police force is the only one in the entire western world that are policing an armed society. As long as America continues to demand their 2nd amendment rights, this is the policing you will recieve, this much should be obvious.

Both this one and the La. shooting are horrible. Poorly trained cops in both...rednecks in the La. one. Cops need to have to pass some sort of psychological test that puts them in real time incidents like this. There is no way on earth that any of those cops should have been allowed to carry a gun.
Very sad, especially for the kids who lost their fathers.
One note I will make about the La. shooting is why on earth would that guy want to struggle with those cops? Just do what they say ....yes sir, no sir is what I was taught. Use common sense. This, of course, is no justification for those redneck cops actions...but...shit...don't provoke a rabid dog.

You are the only country in the western world where the police force will assume that everyone they have to deal with is armed and a potential danger, hense their brutal policing practices.
Yes, some other western countries allow the ownership of guns, but not the carrying of loaded handguns in the street, totally different. Now go dry your eyes.

By saying that you're implying that everyone who's ever been shot by a cop has had a gun on them. And if you meant that cops also shouldn't have guns then of course he also could've ended up as one of the deaths caused by tasers, although less likely. America needs to find a way to cut way down on crime before any gun bans take place, I know if I were a cop I wouldn't want to rely on a baton and a one shot taser to keep me safe. Really all cops should just have body cams.

Again, we do NOT know the facts of the Louisiana shooting, if you fight with the cops on the street with a gun, you will probably end up dead for good reasons.
You don't know if the cops in that situation did anything wrong, why prejudge this case? Just because someone died doesn't mean it wasn't justifiable.
What happened after Obama prejudged the Martin and Brown cases? He looked like a ignorant racist asshole who doesn't give a shit about the facts of a situation. Did he every apologize for wrongfully prejudging those case? NO.

yeah. it's cultural because police forces around the world also kill far more than the cops in the US do as well
of course this culture doesnt help prevent black people getting shot

I offered absolutely no sort of solution to your problem, I was just pointing out a reason, why your police are so trigger happy and brutal.
You don't like foreigners, especially the British it seems, commenting on anything American. Perhaps you should appeal to ythan to ban foreigners from the site. Good luck with that.Quote:

This thread has absolutely nothing to do with the pretentiousness or otherwise of the British.
If you want to discuss that subject, there's a 'button' at the bottom of the list of threads. If you press that button you can create a thread of your own, where you can dicuss just about any subject under the sun. Just a heads up, as you Americans like to say.

My appologies. I didn't know I was wrong, I do now. After looking it up for myself, I came across this page.

The Chech republic seem to be the most lax followed by Switzerland. Italy was an eye opener , though it does state. "Concealed carry permits are hard to obtain however, and normally only police officers and people with risks to their life can get them."
All the same, I learnt something new today.

If you want to discuss that subject, there's a 'button' at the bottom of the list of threads. If you press that button you can create a thread of your own, where you can dicuss just about any subject under the sun. Just a heads up, as you Americans like to say.

Fixed.
All joking aside. Feel free to get a passport and come on over. I will help you rent a motel room in the shittiest part of town and then when you listen to the gunshots from your room you will be thankful that the police are in your neighborhood.
Awaiting arrogant British reply....

My comment was nothing to do with your gun laws but an opinion as to why your police are so muderous and brutal in their policing, than anywhere else in the western world.
Maybe you could address the point rather than go of on some rediculous tangent.
While I'm at the keyboard, I'd like to offer an explanation as to why so many Americans seem to bridle at Britsh people commenting on these boards.
I think some of you can't get over the fact that this tiny little island nation off the north coast of Europe once ran the colonies. You had to have a war to obtain independence, which America won, with no inconsiderable help from Britains old adversaries, the French and Spanish.
Why still so much seeming resentment though? I'm guessing it stems from the history classes you all had. You learnt of all those heinous atrocities carried out by my forefathers, leaving every generation that leaves your school system with a jaundiced view of the British, as if we are still that people. Can you not see that that is as stupid as white guilt?

That is so not how I see britain at all. I'd say you're the one with the biased view of our country. I guess you don't understand the concept of a demographic that is prone to crime. Shit is gonna happen when you don't obey a cop's orders.
