"Unarmed" people can kill. Not having a weapon doesn't mean that a person is harmless.

Grabbing a cop’s gun is generally an an attempt of trying to stop being an “unarmed man”.

It generally leads to becoming a “dead man”.

Not having a weapon doesn't mean that a person is harmless.

Especially when they are hopped up on meth, weed, PCP, or their own adrenaline.

For modern reporters the only arms that matter are firearms.

Saint Swisher didn’t need weapons to threaten and intimidate the store clerk.
And yet the mad barking dog press continues to yap about “unarmed”.

What Grubers are is the lame street media.
The todey show NBC this morning captioned “fowl” weather across the screen.. Just screams their stupidity.

Idiot forget to mention the teeth - full of deadly bacteria. A bite can cripple/kill you.

Even unarmed humans can be a threat. Not every violent person points a gun or holds a knife.

Media fairytales notwithstanding.

A 300 lb man can easily kill a 180 lb man with his hands. This fact of life is what led the first cave man to pick up his first club.

One story I will never forget.

I think, but am not sure, that it was in one of Ayoob’s books.

This guy was attacked by a brute of a guy and in self defense he unloaded his .38 in the guy.

The postmortem showed that every single bullet hit a vital organ and that any one of them could have resulted in his death.

But before he died, he killed the shooter with his bare hands.

I thought Unarmed Teen Michael Brown was his full name. There isn’t a media story about him that doesn’t start with that. There’s a whole bunch of them named Unarmed Teen knocking out innocent people walking down the street.

But because of slavery 150 years ago, it is the duty of every white person to endure a beating by any black who feels the effects of slavery. /sarc

As a citizen I am under no obligation to BOX anyone! Life is not a stupid Jaun Claude VanDamme movie. You approach me or my loved ones in a threatening manner and I’m putting your brains on the sidewalk. Cops are employed by the citizens and given even more powers in this manner to a degree because we ask them to put themselves in harms way. Why do these retarded morons keep acting as though cops are expected to do kung-fu? IDIOTS!!

It’s a consequence of our advertising-driven culture: people are daily hammered with the message that they can’t do X without product Y (”for the low low price of $Z!”). Oh, sure, they _could_ do X without Y, but outliers don’t count and normal people get a Y to do X. If X = “cause grave harm”, then there must be a product Y involved ... and if someone doesn’t have a Y, then they _couldn’t_possibly_ (well, unlikely enough that cognitive dissonance drives the notion completely away) have done X. Ergo, “unarmed” = “harmless”.

Unarmed - should be defined as “did not have a similar weapon compared to the opposite side” (i.e. Fists vs handgun)

Further and responsible comment should then be interjected and state, “ Suspect was unarmed compared to the opposite side - but was in a position to gain the weapon of the opposite side and use such weapon in an illegal and dangerous way as to cause lost of life.”

But that does not cause emotions to stir - riots to occur and 24 hr news coverage to sell its advertising spots...

There were 726 homicides committed in 2011 alone with hands, fists and feet, and the majority of those homicides were committed by young black males.

http://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/ucr/crime-in-the-u.s/2011/crime-in-the-u.s.-2011/tables/expanded-homicide-data-table-11

More homicides are committed each year with hands, fists and feet than are committed with rifles and shotguns combined, including 2012 when the Newtown, Connecticut and Aurora, Colorado mass-murders occurred.

A 6’4” 292-pound documented violent thug like Saint Charging Bull would be more than capable of killing a cop with his bare hands and Air Jordans.

I have been preaching this sermon for several months. Millions of women and children, both dead and alive know a man’s hands are a lethal weapon when he chooses to use them as such.
Beating and choking deaths are common. Do those killers get away with murder because they were ‘unarmed’?
How many women kill their children with their bare hands?
