When a vast majority of the population carries guns you have to be prepared for EVERYONE having a gun and treating EVERYONE like they could kill you. It's an unfortunate side effect to lax gun laws. Were the commands contradictory and difficult? Yes, did dude reach down quickly to his waist and small of his back? Absolutely. It should never have gotten to that point. Lay down flat on your face with arms outstretched and palms on the floor should have been the time when he was cuffed. Terrible situation with the worst possible outcome. I wonder how the jurors feel after the fact seeing the footage and the evidence that was held from them.
Berz out.

Again, I reference this article. https://www.vox.com/cards/police-bru...-police-racism
Please point out to me where you find these 'word-modifiers' that influence what is being presented? Most of what I see in that article are numbers and quotations from research studies.

Are these the numbers you're talking about?
Taken from card four of that article Quote: |
For critics of law enforcement, the incomplete data is just another way it's difficult to hold police accountable. Without complete and accurate statistics, it's impossible to evaluate the extent of racial disparities in police killings, and how the US truly compares with other countries in deaths by law enforcement.

I'm not going to waste my time on this anymore, you obviously aren't that well educated with analyzing data or even simple concepts. Go on believing that white people are more likely being killed than blacks.

You are right the full video was shown. The fact he had "your fucked" etched on his gun was hidden. Could be small but it shows this guy was out to hurt someone IMO and this was a perfect opportunity.
Berz out.

the judge knew about what was engraved on the rifle, but said it won't be used against him in the case

Not sure if it was mentioned as well, but the Jury was not allowed to watch the video. They feared it would unfairly influence their decision, which is absolutely ridiculous.
The system is broken, what do we need to do to change it.
Protests aren't working.

it is possible 1000 cops have been shot or have had a gun drawn on them. we don't know those numbers.

Just because a suspect gets killed questionably, doesn't mean the system is "broken".
These are individual incidents. Not a system failure.

Go on believing that white people are more likely being killed than blacks. | The article basically states that it's whole premise is pointless, since the data is incomplete.
It doesn't 'support my hypothesis'. Because there is no reliable data to argue either side
