    I work daily with the mother of a black teenage boy, her fears, the things she has to prep him for, the "rules" he has to live by are fucking heartbreaking.

    I had to explain this to my girlfriends very liberal father who during the George Floyd trial said “I’m just never gonna resist”

    I do not know what it’s like to ride in the backseat of a car with grandparents who know people the cops have murdered. I don’t know what it’s like to have that fear passed down. It’s just not a thing for me. That’s not even to mention all the horrible injustice and brutality we see in this country currently.

    I’ve glossed over this story but from what I understand this guy was either a son of or an actual African immigrant? He was likely confused and also terrified from what he’s seen in this country throughout his life.

    He was murdered by someone who could have just as easily let him walk away

    Agree with the second sentence, but not the first. For those circumstances (stolen car or clerical error, whichever), it should not have mattered if he ran away. You can get a warrant for his arrest. Blake, Lyoya, and Rayshard Brooks should not be dead because they ran away from the police.

    There are circumstances where a cop is chasing someone and has to shoot, but those are situations involving the most serious crimes/criminals. Something like an active shooter situation.

    Do these bootlickers really not understand that they're obfuscating the real issue by focusing their attention on the victim? Like are they that dumb or do they just want us to think they are?

    We have a systemic issue where the power of the state keeps executing minorities for minor offenses.

    But look they just shouldn't do the minor offense guys I mean come on. This is the important thing to discuss.

    But what if the guy took the taser, figured out how to deploy the taser on the cop, the cop fell back and hit his head, and the guy then takes the cop’s gun and shoots the cop? Totally justified.

    “Shouldn’t have been running” people is the same crowd that thinks “well so what if that guy conspired with a foreign nation, told the feds to eat dick, and then got pardoned”.

    No matter what the victim does there will be people that say they shouldn't have done that if they didn't want to get executed by the police. Every single thread has these people in it

    This is one of the things that always sticks out when this shit happens. How are most of these cops so weak physically that they can't subdue an unarmed person? Lyoya and the cop were roughly the same size and Lyoya looked pretty out of shape in the full video from the Bad Police thread. It shouldn't be too difficult for the cop to get him on the ground and subdue him without even needing to use his taser.

    Because cops generally are manlet pussies who need to try to reaffirm their manhood by treading on the poor people and POC.

    They are basically the career equivalent of a tiny dicked dude driving a jacked up pickup truck.

    We had almost this exact scenario (regarding the offense) recently and it's a miracle that several people weren't killed during the car chase.

    I'm sure I've posted this in a lot of these type of threads - the fact that we don't have an absurdly effective non-lethal given our military and police budgets by now is mind-blowing to me.

    Also - and I'm sure this is a dumb question - do police not typically have a partner in the car or does that just vary wildly?

    it's generational trauma that the bootlickers want to ensure is passed down in the future.

    if you don't want people to run from the cops, stop fucking murdering them

    just because someone is a criminal and does dumb shit doesn’t mean a professional police officer who’s training and job is too literally handle these situations has a green light to blow someone’s brains out………they are trained and paid well with a nice pension on the tax payer dollars to be able to counter the stupidity of unarmed criminals not to murder them

    if there wasn’t criminals there wouldn’t be a need for police so the idea of not being a “dumbass criminal” is actually impossible to achieve anywhere in the world so that’s a idiotic point

    Yes. I unknowingly made cops chase me a few miles bc I was going so fast they couldn't catch me so they had a car up ahead set up a roadblock. Once stopped, they cuffed and tossed me into a street sign, busting my lip. They were annoyed I made them do something that night. They ripped my suv apart looking for drugs. I was 17.

    do we know talk about the countless unarmed men of color that didn’t run and were killed? There is a reason why men of color fear for their lives because of a simple traffic stop.

    You and the other aashole. You guys are assigning blame to the victim. The “well he shouldn’t have ran” makes it seem like because he ran the cop killed him, that if he’d stayed in the car he’d be alive. That is 100% bullshit. Men of color are killed if they run they are killed when they don’t.

    I’m pretty confident that survival rates for a person of any skin color go down when they run and steal a taser from a cop.

    I fucking hate cops, the majority, if not all police departments are racist to the core and black people have every right to fear them. I hope that cop goes to jail for murder, he is to blame for that man dying.

    it’s still really fucking stupid to run and steal the cops taser. I’m honestly at a loss for how this is even 1 percent controversial.

    because neither one of these actions is a capital offense that deserves the death penalty. Again you’re assigning blame to the victim when he deserves none.

    You’re literally blaming the victim and that implies they deserved their fate, that they are some how responsible.

    Agree its dumb to run but I can understand why black man does it. And pointing that out in a situation like this is, even if you don't mean to, passing some of the blame to the victim. It's like pointing out someone was speeding 10mph over the limit when they were hit by a drunk driver going 100mph. I mean sure they shouldn't have been going 10mph over but that's not why they died so why even bring it up?
