This does seem like ridiculous force being used for a guy selling a few CDS, also if they already knew he had a gun which is the reason they were called out why didn't they disarm him?

Outside a Store

All Legal

Someone please tell me how this is even remotely justified!! This hurts so badly.

If white cops are afraid of big built black men they should **** off.

Cherie 07-07-2016 07:02 AM

That is insane, he posed no danger the way they had him pinned to the ground

Dominic 07-07-2016 07:14 AM

Everything about this shooting is ****ed up. Some anonymous person reported how he was threatening with a gun, and instead of questioning him or investigating, he was shot instantly. Video proves he wasn't threatening the cops at all.

EDIT: I got confused between two seperate cases so my second paragraph was irrelevant to this.

There's a video of his girlfriend I believe and she filmed when he was in the car next to her, after he had been shot and he was bleeding. You can see the anger in her and how sad she is. At the end of the video she has a meltdown and her child says 'mom it's OK I'm here with you' and it was very touching.

These are 2 seperate cases. I too thought this thread was about Philando Castille, the man Shot by his girlfriend, but this thread is about Alton Sterling, the man shot down while being held down.

The little girl saying that broke my heart so badly.

Dominic 07-07-2016 07:31 AM

Wait what. I was reffering to the Alton Sterling shooting in the first paragraph. So is the video of that woman in the car a different case? Cause I got to the video through an article about the Alton Sterling shooting

Yup. Alton's blood is still fresh and another black man was unnecessarily killed. Also people are asking where the girlfriend is. She obeyed, kept her hands where they asked, there's no reason for her to be in custody. I just hope it's not another Sandra Bland case.

All lives matter trending. Standard.

One reason gays get support is because there are a lot of white gays and men in power are gay. If being gay was a black issue it wouldn't even be on the radar.

Yes because there was absolutely no sympathy for all the people of colour killed in Orlando last month

1 black man amongst all the white men in the government clearly isn't enough for change.

Tragic case. He was restrained on the floor and then shot multiple times in the torso and back? Why multiple? Heartbreakingly sad and lots of questions to be answered

Yes we need the Full Story
Not Edits

There is another video posted on Facebook that shows the shooting and shows that when they went to pull the "gun" out of his pocket whilst he is lying on the floor bleeding out....they only retrieve his drivers licence. It's not clear enough to confirm that's what it was but it certainly didn't look like a gun.

It'll just be a coincidence. The officers all got itchy at the same time and, by coincidence, all of their finders were on the triggers of guns and pointed at a restrained man. Purely coincidentally, there were rounds in the guns, which fired and hit the guy, but at the same time he actually had an asthma attack and that was the cause of death.

after he was shot
