How do we know that the cop wasn't actually trying to shoot the knife out of her hand? Would it make it better if that was his statement? "I'm sorry, but I tried to shoot her hand, but you know it's much harder than those John Wick movies made it seem... "
New video w/audio shows her clearly being the aggressor, and yelling 'I'ma stab the fuck outta you bitch!'..

Neighbor Donavon Brinson (pictured) who handed the home security footage to police said, after viewing it, he believes more people could have died if the cop hadn't shot Bryant. The incident 'was violent and all just happened so fast', he said.

There's the situation from the point of view of the officer, where he's confronted with one person trying to murder another, and he has to shoot. Can't see he had any other choice, and "systemic racism" is certainly not his problem to solve. Saving the life of the person being stabbed is his job.
The other level is what kind of screwed up society led to a teenage girl trying to stab someone with a knife, and that's more of a political/social problem. Maybe there's some systemic racism. Maybe the black community needs better leaders. Maybe lots of things - none of which are that officer's problem to solve.
Some people fight personal responsibility with every ounce of their body.

Maybe she was just a crazy bitch with a bad attitude and a knife.
Admit it, we've all been on a date or two with one of those. (minus the knife)
Yeah, I got stories. One involved a crazy bitch who pulled a knife on me while drunk stupid (her,) and started calling an ex BF name.
Dear Lord, thank you for guiding me to the right human being whom I am married to today. She knows how to use a knife but would ever turn one against me.

Dude that handed over the surveillance footage is gonna get smoked, just watch.
I wonder if we’re seeing all the cop hate to justify the federal police force that Obama had been talking about. Put enough out crap there and cops will either ignore or refuse to go to calls, plus public trust being in the toilet. Then the administration comes out and says DHS or something new will be coming in to replace all the local PD’s and sheriffs. Then they don’t have to worry about PD’s not doing what the feds want.

Seems too easy, too controversial, and too quick of a finish. Serves the narrative if he can be paraded endlessly on a stake with deflection and other BS.
Wonder if any professional athletic entertainers will try to twitter-fry him. Yeah, Duh-Brawn, looking at you, o-holier-than-thou ....

Interesting. I'm going to withhold judgment now, this just got a lot more complicated and we need all the facts to come out officially.
Not confirmed yet, but basically rumors circulating that:
1. The girl who got shot was the 911 caller, and
2. She took the knife off the other girl after being threatened with it
Maybe she WASN'T trying to stab anyone but was just holding it.
Of course it would be hard for the officer to know that, he saw what he saw, but it will also be hard for him to live with if he retroactively learns he actually shot the victim.

I just noticed something in the slow motion video of the girl getting shot....
Right after she misses the first chick, who falls on the ground, the guy in blue, who I assume to be her dad(?) KICKS the girl that's on the ground....
Start around 1:06.. Pay attention to the guy...on the right... in jeans.

That wasn't a kick, that was a punt. Watch the follow through, his foot followed all the way up untill she flipped forward back into the sidewalk.
As far as speculation goes to who called and if she had intent to stab anyone with the steak knife in here hand, I'd like to point out the now deceased person's own words as she struck the first victim to the ground
"Imma stab the fuck outta you bitch"
Sounded clear as day to me
Some foster parent.....that's who the state dictates can care for parent-less children? Must be some real high standards in ohio "Sir would you ever kick a minor in the head while they are on the ground getting stabbed?" "Sure ya I'll kick anything" "Ok I'll submit your paperwork and you can come pickup your foster child next week"

I want to know who brought the knife. If the dead girl took it from that other one and is also the one who called 911 there's a self defense angle and this isn't so simple.
