Mind blown that this is actual training policy.

But thank goodness it wasn't a black trainee....

Memphis cops looked like a gang beating. Enjoy life in jail (hopefully) fellas.

easily two of the worst police shootings i have seen

Wow, that's the worst take I've ever seen.  Not only should none of the cops go to jail, but none should even lose their job (though almost certainly will).

They are there looking for a guy named Donovan.  They yell multiple times.  They send a dog in multiple times.  They again yell multiple times to the closed door. 

So tell me what it is you think the cops did wrong?  If Donovan rolls over and fires shots at them, would you be posting this saying "Now I get why some cops are trigger happy".

Context matters.  There have been way worse shooting than this.  About as close to textbook as it gets.

I hear a pretty clear "pop" before they open the door, when he then appears to raise his arms toward them.  Twitterverse predictably saying the audio is fucked up, but if he was awake why didn't he follow orders? Like his buddies, he'd be alive if he just opened the door and followed orders.

He was asleep and unarmed if and got zero point one second to comply

So the only way they could arrest him is at 2 am on a no knock raid? That’s stupid

From what I have seen, appears some action in Akron, not too much from reports
