Why weren't we told immediately that Jacob Blake had a knife?

[bigrebnc1775]

He dropped it on the floor. He had it in his hand when he was shot. The cops were telling him to drop the knife moments before he was shot

Got a link?

Where's the knife?
Blake had something in his hand, but it could be sunglasses or his phone.

PolitiFact - No, Jacob Blake did not “brandish” a knife, get a gun before police shooting in Kenosha

• "There was no gun involved. State investigators said there was none found at the scene.
• Police did find a knife in the SUV, but authorities haven’t said if it was there throughout the confrontation or if Blake held it at some point.
• Grainy video shows an object in Blake’s hand, but he didn’t “brandish” it, and it’s not clear if it’s a knife, sunglasses or something else."

Would you bet your life on the chance that a man you just tazed and was not listening to your commands was not reaching for the knife?

And you were expecting something that resembles the truth by watching CNN and MSNBC?

More often than listening to Trump.

How did the get the nickname Don-the-Con?

Wow, you get that meme from CNN....dumbass.

 

[georgephillip]

Someone should fact check your fact-checkers I'll pick the fact-checkers of your lying fact-checkers.

Trump has been a pathological liar for his entire life.
If you can't see that, your ideology is blinding you.

Plain & Simple: Donald Trump is a LIAR!

Would you bet your life on the chance that a man you just tazed and was not listening to your commands was not reaching for the knife?

If I had a gun in my hand and two officers backing my chances, I would wait until I saw the knife in the hand of my opponent.

Wow, you get that meme from CNN....dumbass.

Have you noticed any evidence of Trump's pathological lying, Loon?

Was he trying use the knife? Was it even in his hand? Shot 7 fucking times in the back while reaching into his vehicle to check on the kids!!

The Kids were not in the driver's seat, moron!

We are finally told that Jacob Blake had a knife. That should have been announced immediately. You can actually see what may be a knife for a brief moment between 40 and 41 seconds into the video. I didn't notice it at first. It could be his keys and it's possible the knife was in his car. If he had the knife in his hand, that would explain why the police didn't tackle him.

Wisconsin DOJ: Jacob Blake Admitted to Law Enforcement He Had Knife

Jacob Blake, the 29-year-old black man shot multiple times by Kenosha police, admitted to law enforcement he "had a knife in his possession."

www.breitbart.com

Another bullshit attempt to justify this murder and blame the victim . Was he trying use the knife? Was it even in his hand? Shot 7 fucking times in the back while reaching into his vehicle to check on the kids!!

So the three kids were in the front seat ASSHOLE? The common street thug was reaching for something in the front seat.
When the cops arrived they KNEW the thug gang banger had a warrent out for sexual assault of a minor.

 

[TheHardTruth]

Make no mistake. 7 shots seems a bit excessive. But the bottom line here is that Jacob Blake is to blame for Jacob Blake's misfortune.
The police officers were responding to a domestic violence call. They didn't pluck Jacob Blake off the street at random and shoot him. They were detaining an individual, Jacob Blake, who had an outstanding warrant. Jacob Blake chose to be stupid, or maybe arrogant, and disobey the police officers commands. The police officers tried to subdue Jacob Blake with "less than lethal force" a taser, which was ineffective for whatever reason. Jacob Blake, may, or may not have been carrying a knife, a lethal weapon, which according to eye witness account, Jacob Blake was ordered repeatedly to drop. Jacob Blake then proceeded to open his car door and reach inside, perhaps to access a more lethal weapon to assault the officers. Regardless, the FACT remains that Jacob Blake CHOSE to disregard the police officers commands. Jacob Blake CHOSE his fate. Had Jacob Blake done what he is supposed to do when given instructions by a police officer, which is to comply, he would be walking and not lying in a hospital bed fighting for his life. He is to blame for what happened in Kenosha, WI.....NOT the Police officers.

Please explain exactly why the cop could not have pulled him out of the car before he got to whatever, if anything , he was reaching for.

Check on the kids.


When police tell you to stop, what should you do?

I really want to know your answer.

Because doing so is extremely risky. Too many police have been murdered because they did not address the threat of deadly force appropriately.

Do you even know or care what kind of danger those guys face when apprehending a suspect?

[WTH_Progs?]

Same reason they failed to show Floyd resisting arrest and complaining about breathing issues throughout the entire ordeal.

Same reason they failed to show Brooks beating on cops and turning a taser on them.
