No. Hedge clippers, really? Maybe the man is deaf.
The video will not be published. It must prove badge monkey lied about murdering a man.
I had not read a word about this
maybe since it is California and the rest of us know Calif is so corrupt this isn’t news??
“The video will not be published.”
Um, we’re in the internet age, the video is already out there and can never be put back in the bottle.
The cops didnt seem concerned about the people behind the man who were in the line of fire.
The guy may have been a threat. Sure seems like there are better ways then deadly force.
From the video the guy was ignoring orders and was moving away from the cops. The one cop moves in closer, the man turns, and they shoot.
I wonder if there were videos from nearby businesses
Looks like a homeless drunk wetback bumm. They stink and
it rubs off on things. The fuzz would much rather shoot
the guy than wrestle him to the ground to cuff him and have
to wear and smell the homeless drunk funk the rest of the day.
Death before deodorant. Now if the drunk homeless wetback
looking dude would have been a clean pretty smelling fella
he would have most likely just got his ass beat.
Moral of this story, always bathe and smell good. In today’s
era of the jackboot thug your life may depend on it.
Nope, it’s not news. You see, us Kalifornicators are just so used to corruption and out of control police that we try to prevent any mention of such things outside state lines...
It’s not like there aren’t any cops killing citizens in other states under dubious circumstances and the LSM is breathlessly reporting on it, is it?
We rather enjoy our corruption and we try not to let on to outsiders that we’re not only corrupt, we’re masochists and enjoy it.
So no, it’s not “news”. It’s not like there isn’t any corruption going on in the rest of the country, right?
It’s reserved solely for Kalifornia, so keep your hands off of OUR corruption and go make your own!
Oops, that's the legal standard for cops to shoot your dog, not people.
What feels even better than killing one person and getting away with it? Killing a couple of people.
It’s murder.
The driver of the white truck is pretty lucky he wasn’t shot as well. The cop probably felt threatened by him too.
“Cops claim self-defense in killing man”
Just taking lessons from their buddies in New Mexico.
Not to worry. The ‘police’ will investigate themselves and find no wrong-doing.
Based on that video it does appear that the suspect turns and confronts the officers before being shot... anything beyond that can’t be concluded, very poor video, far away and poor angle.
Only thing that can be seen is the suspect did indeed turn around and move closer to the officer... whether he was waving sheers or not can’t tell.
Lethal force against hedge clippers? Why didn’t these cops use their tasers? I think they jumped the gun on this one.
