So this news just broke a few hours ago. Two officers respond to drunk man shooting into air. They find this guy and he runs. He has a gun. The gun is clearly identified and conveyed to the guy. He Doesn’t stop and looks like he’s going for his gun. Police shoot (all on video) and the family and neighbors are all angry. https://www.google.com/amp/www.chicagot ... y,amp.htmlI know family always has a different perspective. This isn’t a he said, police said type of deal. They have every detail on video. Next will be marches and hate crimes... I just don’t get it. Police were justified, cleared and it’s all on video - clear as Day.

Not playing the game...
It’s pure fact. What and how you want to use it to push your own slant on the facts is yours alone.

He's not white, they are cops. Does not matter what he did. Cops are always wrong. Reality, and perception/opinion do not matter to these people. I bet there are people that think the guys with the full auto AK's in LA were just misunderstood youths turning their lives around.

The video files are at the bottom of this web page. There is raw video from each officer's body camera, plus a compiled/edited/stabilized video: http://www.ci.minneapolis.mn.us/police/records/frequent

Damn that stabilized video really shows it all.
The guy was reaching and at time of being shot... the gun is clearly in his hand.
Fact.

Pretty sure this is the officer that they decided not to prosecute because it was a justified shoot...

There’s a few stories going around and lots of confusion.
This happened in Minneapolis with an armed guy (guy with gun) and there is another one in Baltimore with an unarmed teen and the officer was cleared there too.
So confusion is all around. Even when I saw this initial video it had this video from Minneapolis but the story that was attached was about the Baltimore unarmed.
That was from ABCnews.go too. Someone isn’t checking their shit.

It’s Minneapolis, the shining socialist jewel of Minnesota. Of course it all the cops fault, they should have let that angelic upstanding citizen fire into the nearby houses, why infringe on a criminals right to inflict harm? Seriously that city is just as bad as Seattle folks, the only difference is that there is no fault line, no puget sound for that waste of good prairie to rid itself of those miscreants.

Amazing that the officers held back that long, before deciding to take him down. I'da shot as soon as I saw a weapon.
