It appears the police are terrified to do their job. They shoot first and ask questions later. It's clear police across this country have very poor training and seem to almost all reach for their gun before doing anything else. Shoot an unarmed 50 year old man who is running away, slowly. Choke a man to death on the sidewalk in New York for selling cigarettes. Severe a man's spine and throw him in a truck. Shoot a 16 year old teen who isn't running AT the police 15 times while he is on the ground already. Now this.

Why did they shoot this guy? And not once but over and over. Something is seriously wrong with how police in the US do their job. They seem to have gained a 'we're god, we'll do what we want whenever we want' attitude.

It has to stop.

I used to go to Harlem all the time to be with my musician friends and we would eat soul good have a great time and it was always a party on a Saturday night. I miss those days I wonder what it would be like today what I get shot or be given some collard greens

Sterling was armed and threatening others. He was probably doped up.

 

[JakeStarkey]

The victim had a gun, but did not have a hold on it. The second officer pulled his weapon and shot the victim in the chest as he was on his back held down by the other officer. The gun was discharged at less than ten inches.

Of course Black lives don't matter to Liberals look at cities like Chicago or the abortion rate in the black committee
Anyway if the Officers shot an unarmed man they should fry for it. Lets forget the court of public opinion and wait for all the facts to come out.

Your lack of understanding of human compassion evidences itself in the statement above, ThunderKiss. Good conservatives and liberals and centrists condemn this act. And your statement condemns you,

I agree with the highlighted. When the nigga's figure out that they are killing themselves and destroying the lives of the children in their communities, maybe they'll begin to stay home and raise their children and kick out those that don't even care about their own kind.

Did you miss the part where I stated "If the Officers shot an unarmed man they should fry" of course you did. " What you are doing is condemning something before getting all the facts. My compassion is exactly were it should be I'm horrified by the violence in cities like Chicago and the genocide perpetrated against the black community using legalized murder.

I heard he had a gun. When a cop asks you to comply, you comply. You don't fight them every step of the way.

Oh boy, just when I was about to take his side................


As details of the current investigation unravel, here are seven things you need to know about the late Alton Sterling:

1. He was the father of five children from different partners.

Quinyetta McMillon, the father of his oldest son Cameron (15), said she feels hurt for her son, whom she has raised.

"As a mother, I have now been forced to raise a son who is going to remember what happened to his father, that I can't take away from him," McMillion told reporters this morning. "He is at an age of understanding. I hurt more for him and his loss as a parent. One of the greatest fears is to see your child hurt and know there's nothing you can do about it.”

McMillon said she didn’t think Sterling should be judged for his past. Details about the mother of his four younger children are still unclear.

2. He had a criminal history consisting of sexual intercourse with a minor under age 17 in 2000.

Records show Sterling was registered as a sex offender in 2004 for "carnal knowledge of a juvenile" on September 20, 2000 in his home state of Louisiana. Details of the offense have not been released.

3. In addition to selling CDs, Sterling "worked as a cook," his friends said.

Muflahi said Sterling had been selling CDs outside his store and in the area nearby for the past six years. His friends Calvin Wilson (56) and David Solomon (60) said he had another job as a cook.

“Whatever he cooked, he cooked enough for everybody,” Wilson said.

4. He pleaded guilty to illegally carrying a weapon and possession of marijuana in 2009.

Sterling was sentenced for five years in prison for marijuana possession with the intent to distribute and for carrying an illegal weapon that had a controlled dangerous substance.

5. He lived at a shelter.

Sterling had been living for the past few months at the Living Waters Outreach Ministries at 4156 W. Brookstown Dr. at the order of the East Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office, due to his criminal offenses. His fellow residents at the shelter, Wilson and Solomon, said they helped him "sell CDs" at the home from time to time. Wilson added that about five people were living there full-time.

Sterling had registered at the address in July and a probation officer had checked on him in August, only to find from the center manager that he hadn't lived there for two weeks.

6. A warrant was sent for his arrest in 2015 for failure to register as a sex offender, among other crimes.

By April, the local district attorney's office filed charges against Sterling for his failure to register as a sex offender. His court records shows he was accused of other crimes since 1996. He had pleaded guilty to aggravated battery, simple criminal damage to property and unauthorized entry, and domestic abuse battery.

7. Sterling had been carrying a gun illegally at the time of his death.

Sterling's family members say he was on probation at the time of his death and wasnot allowed to carry a gun. Muflahi said Sterling began carrying the gun recently after his friend was mugged. He had been incarcerated and released on parole shortly before his death.
