If the court system finds the Officer guilty of any wrong doing based on the facts and provided evidence of the situation, with the fear of retaliation then justice will not be serviced.pmoney25;1645687 wrote:These protesters only want justice if it fits their agenda.

This is a debate I have with friends at times, IMO police should carry weapons that will stop individuals .45 type, based on all data most shooting are within a 18 feet range or less. Would this situation have end different with a more powerful impacting round to the individual, bring him to his knees or knocking him back with one or two shots? Leaving the individual seriously wounded with wounds to the arm and chest? Just a thought.

The officer suffered an orbital blowout fracture to his eye socket during the encounter with the criminal.
Time for the left-wing race baiting pimps and media shills to go find another story.

Martin was shot by a citizen with a gun, not the cops. Totally different, yet people will mix the two. MB and Martin shouldn't be mentioned in the same breath.bases_loaded;1645784 wrote:Howard Stern said his parents were on the today show this morning. Dafuq?

its not like he was 25-30 and unemployed. He was 18, I know plenty fo 18 year olds who arent working, or arent working full time.

Not saying this is what happened , and this is not what I believed happened. But if he were to of got shot the first time, he could of easily off of instinct put his arms up to try to protect himself. And ended up dropping down and thus the next bullet or two going through the top of his head. Its not likely thats what happened, but its possible. Which is why this proves nothing but which direction he was facing.sleeper;1645719 wrote:It "proves" a lot more than that as it sure as hell correlates directly with the officers account and eye witness accounts that occurred directly after the shooting before the narrative was generated.
Also, explain how a bullet enters the top of his head? Explain how the bullet holes entered the front of his arms and not the back/side like they do when you raise your hands in the air. Try raising your arms in the air and you'll quickly see the front of your arms are no longer facing forward. Pretty easy to see MB was charging the police officer and the 4 bullet wounds in his arm weren't enough to stop him so the officer kept shooting.
Except that the blacks and the hippies blew both out of proportion, and both were proven, or are being proven, to be wrong. Neither accept personal responsibility for attacking someone, etc. The reaction in both cases are very similar.Raw Dawgin' it;1645825 wrote:Martin was shot by a citizen with a gun, not the cops.

An equally plausible explanation is the shots to the head occurred because he was running toward the cop. Toxicology will be interesting, because the cop seems to think he was on something (which would explain the unbelievable charge at a cop shooting at him).KB0938;1645849 wrote:And ended up dropping down and thus the next bullet or two going through the top of his head.

Let's keep in mind the cop can discharge six rounds in just 1-2 seconds.
This is important. The story about charging a cop with a loaded weapon while being shot doesn't really jive if he wasn't on something.gut;1645856 wrote:Toxicology will be interesting, because the cop seems to think he was on something (which would explain the unbelievable charge at a cop shooting at him).
I don't disagree. But if there are multiple witnesses with conflicting accounts (some of which affirm the cop's story) you'll never get a conviction from a jury.HelloAgain;1645862 wrote:This is important.

And the simplest explanation is cops aren't trained marksmen. A cop friend of mine said they only cert twice a year, said "you DO NOT want a cop pulling that movie hero bullshit if someone is using you as a shield".KB0938;1645860 wrote:And thats probably what happened. I dont disagree
Just sayin where the shots landed dont mean without a doubt thats how it happened

The more telling detail is the oribital fracture, which does in fact prove the scuffle occurred. And probably is how he got shot close range like you suggested.

Don't charge at cops with knives and it's not an issue. (that's directed at them, not you) But I haven't given this much attention because the media (idiots) are just covering bigger idiots. Cops have to make split-second decisions and sometimes they're justified and sometimes they aren't. The simplest way to avoid being apart of that is to not be a criminal.pmoney25;1645878 wrote:So now another guy was shot this time he had a knife. Happened in St Louis.
