All hail the Moyesiah

Hmm six armed police vs an unarmed homeless man who's apparently already been stunned, surely that situation can be resolved without shooting him dead? Of course the police have one of the hardest jobs in the country - especially in areas like this - and of course they do a lot of good work and most people value them for that, but that shouldn't make them immune to criticism or excuse them of any wrongdoing. The whole video is pretty indicative of a sorry state of affairs.

LAPD are now saying he 'reached' for the gun not that he had the gun.

The truth will out... even if it's played out in front of people and they fail to see it.

The police have confirmed he was unarmed and there was SWAT team present. \There are no reports of him reaching for any guns. The police are saying he resisted but once again the report show he was shot within two seconds of them entering the house. So I don t get how the Officer was so 'scared' - cuz that the excuse they always use - in this instance but you're right he resisted - according to police he resisted - but in my book that is not a bad enough crime for an execution in his own house.,

edit
now they say he was not armed (but they did not know that for sure at the time obviously) Cruice allegedly “advanced on a member of the SWAT Team who was entering the residence,” bad move from the perp when facing a swat team shouting to get down |

You're adding bits onto the story. Why dont we stick to what has been reported. As I pointed out, the man had no shirt on so I dont see how the officer was unsure. He had to be some kind of master criminal to conceal a weapon in that state at 6 in the morning. But you're right he resisted so they shot him..

Adding more and more and more. IF this is how you justify you're attitude then good luck to you but I'd rather stick to what has been reported

"It seems likely that Cruice was dealing pot. The police say they found a ledger book, a scale, about a half-pound of marijuana and some cash. It also seems likely that if the police had simply knocked on the door and waited, or apprehended Cruice as he was coming or going, Cruice would be still be alive. This insistence on serving drug warrants by barreling into homes creates needless violence, confusion and confrontation. They’re designed to do this. I doubt that Cruice knowingly decided to take on a raiding police team armed only with his basketball shorts. It seems far more likely that he thought they were criminal intruders and was either trying to confront them, or was trying to escape. But there is no room for errors in judgment for the people on the receiving end of these raids — even though sowing confusion and disorientation are the stated aim. But it is only the suspects, the targets of the raids, who are expected to do everything right. When the police screw up and kill someone, they’re generally forgiven, owing again to the volatility of the situation."
