Walter Wallace was armed with a knife. His family called the police, and notified the police that he had mental issues (manic bipolar episodes). He was executed by gunshot, while wielding a knife. Trump and the administration are silent, as usual.
How the fuck was he a threat to police while wielding a knife?
This is evil.
No other way to describe it. Pure evil.
This evil administration has to go. Fuck them all. Fuck Mitch McConnell, fuck lindsey graham, and fuck all the other spineless republicans that have enabled this. History will remember this.

You don't think a man with a knife poses a threat?

A threat at a distance to multiple police officers armed with guns, not a fucking chance. Give them fucking tasers. His mother explained he has psychiatric issues, so send a fucking psychiatrist along with the police. No excuse for this. Give them tasers and let them man up and take him down that way. You really think someone deserves to die in a situation like this?

So no threat because they have guns? Do you even realize that your whole argument assumes the use of those guns?

So give them tasers. Or don't fire a fatal shot.

I'm all for disarming cops, but let's not pretend there was no threat whatsoever.

We can agree there was a threat. But a single man with a knife posing a fatal threat to multiple cops? Guns or no guns, that's absurd.
The bottom line is that he should not have been killed. Even without tasers, there were alternatives. Guns are powerful because of the threat alone, and they are capable of inflicting non-lethal damage. Even if they pose a threat, people should not be killed in these circumstances.

I've seen a video of one man with a knife killing four cops. It was some of the gnarliest shit i ever saw. I would not hesitate to blast some fucker coming at me with a knife.

You think the administration is behind the killing?
-------------------- I am in a minority on the shroomery, as I frequently defend the opposing side when they have a point about something or when my side make believes something about them. I also attack my side if I think they're wrong. People here get very confused by that and think it means I prefer the other side.

I guess it's a shame you weren't there to play superhero. Cops aren't going fuck around when their lives are in imminent danger. The guy was literally running at them with it. Tasers don't stop people sometimes. Even shooting them in the leg doesn't stop people sometimes.

Seriously, obviously he was a threat. The question then becomes how close did that person get to the officer with the knife, what was done to deescalte, If he got to a point where he said dont move to me with that knife or I'll shoot you and he kept going that's more understandable. More importantly did he try a non lethal first like a taser etc. George Floyd's killing was evil this I'm not sure yet I need more information and video, im not going to jump to conclusions to cause chaos because I'm mad at the system.

If you have a knife and you attack the cops, what the fuck do you expect to happen? How dumb can you be?
Sure, it'd be really nice if in a perfect world the cops didn't kill him, but this is the real world and he attacked cops with a knife. I would frankly be surprised if any other outcome had occurred.
There is a super simple, easy way to make sure this doesn't happen to you: just don't attack the cops with a knife. It's really easy to not attack cops with a knife. This wasn't a peaceful man just minding his own business. If he had dropped the knife, or not even had the knife at all to begin with, the entire situation could have been avoided. There are tons and tons of things he could have done that would have resulted in him still being alive. Really easy things, too, requiring no real effort. It doesn't take any effort to put down a knife and not attack or threaten people.

Hard to believe but there's plenty of videos of EMTs dealing with deranged knife wielding attackers with far better outcomes
I just don't get why people in a black neighborhood would call the police in the first place. I certainly wouldn't call the police, neighborhood could have dealt with that themselves

They didn’t call the police, they called an ambulance and the police showed up instead and killed him.

Not carry the knife at all? I carry a knife everyday almost everywhere I go. I have a folding old timer and a 6" fixed blade gerber that I carry on my belt.
Granted I live in the sticks, but still. Saying that the guy would be alive if he didnt have a knife on him is pretty fucked up. Attacking the cops with said knife is a different story but just carrying one in general is completely inocuous on its own.
