...on the vid I watched, it’s really difficult to see if Jacob Blake was reaching into the car and whether any ‘threat’ could possibly have been felt...because his body going forward seemed at the exact same time as his shirt was grabbed and his forward body position would have been an instinctive resistance and reaction to that, if someone tugged my top like that, my body would go forward in resistance ...as it was obvious though that his intention was to get into the car/going around to the door etc and putting his hand on the door to open it...and if a ‘weapon in the car threat’ was a thought...then a shoulder or leg aimed shot would have been the thing if a shot was to be fired ...not 7 shots in the back, each one potentially lethal...

...I really do hope he survives, just awful...
