This idea that cops NEED to shoot first is absurd. He could have tased her. Just for the record, I commented yesterday on you original post. This is what I said. But after watching the cam video for the 16 year old girl, I don't think this particular shooting wasn't justified. And this tweet you posted is such a bad comparison. The only similarity was a knife was used. The 911 call was from the parents about their troubled teen that want to runaway. So the officer didn't even know there was a weapon and he was about to put him in handcuffs his gun wasn't drawn when the boy attacked. The officer drew his gun first here too but had the time to change his weapon. And there was no other violence going on around him. If the man would have turned around and came for the officer with a knife in the air a second time the officer would have shot him and it would be justified. I don't understand what you are doing using this video. There are no similarities anywhere.

They have tasers for this very reason. But I guess murdering people is better for you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What, should he have just asked nicely during this brawl for her to kindly put away her deadly weapon. ? WAKE UP. This doesn’t fit - stop trying to force it.

I feel like you’re just purposely being blind to what’s really happening. A taser would’ve sufficed. Maybe you should wake up and realize that murder isn’t always the answer, but you do you.

He drew his weapon after the violence erupted again and he killed the girl who was in the middle of murdering someone. He saved the girl other girl while there was violence all around him.

With that decision, she forfeited her right for leniency because another girl’s life was in imminent danger. “De-escalating” was saving that other girl’s life. That’s all. She made a terrible decision by attacking another human with a deadly weapon and she paid the price. It’s sad and tragic but we also must have law and order.

I’m sure the girl who was about to be stabbed would love to hear your opinion on how the officer shouldn’t have done anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, because using a taser is a form of de-escalating a violent situation. Y’all just want cops to get away with killing people and it’s sooooo painfully obvious. Especially with those laughing emojis. Y’all are sick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
