Breaking: Riot Season Opens Again in Minnesota

[AzogtheDefiler]

Well, it's getting serious now. They called off the Twins-Red Sox game 5 minutes before game time due to safety reasons, with the pitchers warming up and all the fans in the stands with their beers.

There's talk they may move the series to Fenway.

This is absolutely ridiculous.

Shooting someone for fleeing with an outstanding warrant isn't usually on the approved shooting list.

20 year old. pulled for an air freshener hanging from the rear view mirror. Called his mother to ask for insurance information, was then questioned about an outstanding warrant on another traffic violation. Attempted to drive off and was shot to death, crashing the car also injuring his girlfriend.

We also haven't seen the video yet to see if he drove off or if maybe the vehicle moved forward after they shot him.

Here it is, and even after viewing it, still a shooting not justified, and the police chief has said it is an accidental shooting, because the female officer was supposed to be using the taser.

A normal gun is justified in the same instances a taser is to be used.

Only in a case of imminent threat of harm to the officer, or an innocent bystander. No such threat existed. Flight to evade arrest can be handled at a later time. The only action I could see as a valid reason, was the resist of the arrest, and being physically combative to reenter the vehicle. In that case you have a heat of the moment situation where the suspect could have reached for a firearm. It appears in this case, the assisting officer was quick on the trigger, as the vehicle was already in motion, and the officer can be heard saying she just shot him. The Chief of police doesn't seem to think the shooting was justified, and the reactions on the other officers faces, seems to demonstrate they don't think so either.

Was she brand new or something? Can't you tell the difference between a taser and your handgun just by the feel of it in your hand?

What astounds me is the armchair quarterbacking I see from some of you...

The moment he decided to drive off, he was resisting arrest, and not knowing the mentality of the assailant, he now had a 2000lb weapon. He made himself a danger to everyone else on that roadway when he chose to flee.

You can't possibly know what's involved with being a police officer in the heat of a scary moment like that.

So stop acting like you know what you would have done in her place. Odds are you never will. Spare us all your prevaricated judgments.

Those whom are quick to criticize law enforcement officers should consider becoming one themselves in order to show how it can be done better.

Many areas offer a version of "citizens on patrol" where civilians can volunteer to help in less critical LE areas and/or do ride alongs with officers to see what really happens.

LEO is not a genetic trait one is born with such as race or ethnic or gender. It's an occupation/career choice and in many areas the standards would exclude large portions of the population. Then there are other areas where recruits are scarce and standards lowered just to fill the slots. Places like Seattle where "defund" is in full gear and other hamstringing in play, officers are leaving in scores.

If you don't like how the police do their job, next time you need one, don't call 9-1-1, call AntiFa instead.

I could not become one as there is no way I could pull someone over for having an air freshener hanging from their mirror.

In other words, another whom talks a talk but hasn't integrity to walk the walk.
If citizens did more self-policing, we wouldn't need so many police.

Bull....She needs fired and charged. Whoever was in charge of her training needs fired.

If not the people should burn things down.

It'd be a shame if people burnt your home or business over something like this huh?

You're a fckn asshole and part of the problem. Innocent people had nothing to do with this, fuckwit

Dismantle the Brooklyn Center Police Department immediately, and let the community have it their way.

You go ahead and try and arrest someone for having a air freshener hanging from their mirror, internet cowboy,

The alternative is easy. Fire and charge her.

Whoops. Meant to fire my taser instead of my gun, lol.

My bad.

You just don't want to deal with Minneapolis cops. One Somali cop shoots and kills an Australian woman who called them and then went to speak with them, Philando Castille is shot 5 times at point blank range for the crime of carrying a concealed weapon with a permit, Chauvin chokes the life out of George Floyd, and now some kid gets shot and killed over an air freshener.

As I said early on, there is something really messed up in Minnesota.

 

[XponentialChaos]

I don’t think these issues go away with less funding.

If anything, they need more funding, more training, and more accountability.

Not here at USMB - this is where all the smart people hang out!

These riots are domestic terrorism. They're entire purpose is to intimidate everyone into mouthing support for the Prog-Race-Hustle-Agenda....OR ELSE.

This is no different than Nazi Party Shock Troops. BLM is the "Sturmstaffel" stage of the progression to full-board Nazi Party control of the U.S.

The libs adhere both to commie and Nazi rules

Communist Nazis sounds accurate

Exactly. Pay them twice as much, and fire them at the first hint of impropriety.

But he was a good boy momma said. This family is doing back flips right now. Hitting The Ghetto Lotto is somewhat rare and a hell of a reason to tip a cold C45.

I imagine 100 slithering civil rights attorneys scampering about their grounds. Probably an 8 million dollar kill

I say let the shit holes completely free of police and do it themselves.

Ikr? When it interferes with the Red Sox, it's gone too far!

It sounds like protest is in order, but riots aren't. The looting is impossible to defend. As Obama said, That's not protest, it's plain STEALING.

The cop made a pretty big mistake, one you don't hear much about happening, so I'm guessing it's pretty rare. Or it was the Chief's desperate excuse to try and avoid more rioting. The cop will be held accountable, and I'm sure she feels like shit about it and always will. There's an early curfew that will help them get people off the streets tonight Wright's own mother told the crowd yesterday to stay peaceful. Riots will not further BLM's cause. All they need to do is remind everyone that they're watching, keep the pressure on politically.

I believe his momma is white.........trash.
