Democrat mayor makes it about color.

Identity politics to the max.

It was a “tool bar” first. They later decided that it was a phone.

The foot cops muted their body cams during the chase. One actually said something along the lines of “Go mute.”, or something simular. Cameras then when mute.

Slightly off the topic...

I used to live near Sacramento (now quite happily in a nicely "red" state).

I miss the California of 30 years ago. I do not miss the Cali of the new millennium. At all.

Too much crime, trash, ickiness, drug gangs, multicultural anti-traditional-Americanism.

People are now rude and creepy, compared to what we knew just a few decades ago. I hope Cali can recover so Californians can stay there and keep from ruining other states.

Liberal CA is like the 60s South.

Not to worry, they’ll find a way to make it Trump’s fault.

"Not to worry, they’ll find a way to make it Trump’s fault."

Yes--both the demonstrators and the government employees. Something both sides appear to agree on in Cali!

Couldn’t they have shot him with ten tazers, a tranquilizer gun, an African game net, a BB gun, some rock salt, driven him into a trip rope/net etc?

Something less than gunning him down?

Using lethal force for allegedly “breaking into cars” seems a little harsh.

Unless he fires a shot.

He was apparently seen by a helicopter breaking into cars and a house nearby.

He had his cell phone in his hand, Police saw something, they thought it was a gun and told him to drop the gun and raise his hands. If he followed orders, dropped the phone and raised his hands, he would not have gotten shot.

Everything is race to some. This guy was a typical scumbag. No, it does not deserve death by cop but these protestors need to look at the root of why America is rotting and civil society lessening. As a society de-evolves and breaks down, the response from those sworn to protect it becomes much more harsh. Incidentally, I think police training and hiring is grossly inadequate as a whole in America.

The police had been chasing him trying to catch him. He had something in his hands(a cell phone). When ask to show his hands he didn’t

He wouldn’t have been shot had he not been trying to run from police and then not following directions

"...seen by a helicopter..."


Seems unreasonable to believe a helicopter flying 500-1000 feet overhead, at night, in a busy city...just happened to see someone stealing stuff out of parked cars.

He ran from the police when they first tried to stop him. They caught up with him in the back yard. This guy was no innocent

The government in California is more crazy about police matters than in most other states.
