I don’t know…
The guy crying while crawling through the hallway with an entire swat team screaming at him and then getting executed was also pretty bad.
The guy shot in the back multiple times while running away from the police officer was just chilling.All these shooting without consequences are just bizarre.
The hallways one pisses me off to no extent. From the pig who killed him having “Get Fucked” or whatever it was engraved on his rifle, down to the very fact they responded with nothing but conflicting and confusing commands. He was told to crawl towards them but also keep his hands above his head, which is impossible to do, crawling requires hands and knees on the ground, shuffling only requires knees. Then, the clearly intoxicated and unarmed man crying and shuffling towards them has his pants keep falling down, and like any of us would do, instinctively kept pulling them back up. Instead of the pigs telling him to ignore his pants, y’know, to help alleviate some of the stress the poor guy is experiencing, they scream once at him to keep his hands up and then they open fire on him when he instinctively does it again. There’s one of him, and at least half a dozen fully armed and armored pigs, and pulling pants up was soooooooooooooo threatening to these pieces of shit who like to play dress up as soldiers, they riddled him with bullets and he got to bleed out on a carpet in a hotel hallway.
The report was a man brandishing a rifle in a hotel window, and at no point did they guy give any evidence he was packing a rifle or trying to be uncooperative with the pigs. And they killed him, because he didn’t want his pants to fall. Don’t worry though, the pig that killed him was medically retired due to PTSD from the event. I bet the victim sure wishes he could’ve medically retired from PTSD, but that privilege is only for pigs apparently.
But we know people are subject to crowd panic. It’s not an excuse, but definitely part of the reason was they worked themselves into a frenzy until someone let loose. They’re all guilty, but it’s also a human weakness that police need to solve
This one I can’t even see how it happened. There was no crowd, nothing that could be perceived as threatening, no real possibility of any sort of violence, not even a threat of escaping. Most importantly, she was the “victim”, she called for help, how does that turn into her being suspicious? We’re far beyond any possibility of an excuse for that behavior, but I don’t even see how
These mfs are basically trained to see civilians as a threat. So I’m not surprised that they randomly attack people who are not threats. Psychological conditioning can be very powerful
Look, even if she actually threatened them with boiling water (she didn’t, but let’s pretend she did).
She wasn’t a suspect. They could have just left her apartment. Between fight and flight, they could have easily chosen flight.
But because cops always feel the need to flex their authority, this woman is dead.
ACAB.
If he was afraid of her splashing him with boiling water, why advance on her? He should be moving back to avoid being close enough to be threatened. Even giving him the maximum benefit of the doubt his actions created the situation. It’s like if a cop steps out in front of your vehicle in traffic and then shoots you because you were about to run him over. Even if you believe she was threatening him, he still murdered her because he caused it to happen.
Personification of the meme…If you don’t treat them like an authority, they won’t treat you like a person.
To add to this… a lot of police confirmation videos I see someone MAYBE acting strange or MAYBE doing something that a cop could find threatening. This one I saw absolutely no danger or strange behavior. The lady was just talking to them like any of us would talk to each other. It’s disgusting.
How dare you ignore her deadly weapon, the pot of water that she was pouring down the drain.
They could have gotten wet, potentially, if she would have shown any sign of intention to throw it at them. But if they didn’t shot her they could have maybe gotten wet, if they also didn’t move.
This is the kind of chaos, fear, traumas and danger or finest have to deal with every day! So it is very understandable if they decide to announce their intentions (“I can shoot you in your fucking face”) and then do it once she begs for forgiveness (“please! I’m sorry! I’m sorry!”)
Who else would protect us?!
Afraid of getting wet? Those policemen were pussies. That’s no excuse for what they did. Now if there were acorns involved…
Come on… It was a pot of boiling hot water. If she did throw it at the cops that could do a lot of damage. I’m not saying it looked like she was going to throw it and I don’t think the shooting was justified, but don’t pretend like the cops would’ve just “gotten wet”. It doesn’t look good when you lie.
Yep, and I bet there were peaches on the counter. If she took the stones out of all the peaches and ground them up to a fine powder and chemically concentrated the cyanide, she could have offered a nice innocent tea that would have been deadly. Good thing he defended against such threats
Wtf are you talking about? Are you denying that a pot of boiling water would be easy to throw at someone and severely mess them up?
Ye, every time I’m in a diner, if I see a waitress even glance toward that coffee pot or the tea kettle, I’m pulling my gold plated Desert Eagles and mag-dumping right there. I have to do it. It’s self-defense. It would be their fault
Especially if it’s to a tiny elderly wonan in her nightshirt trembling in distress, who asked for help, trying to obey my every command, and I only have one guy on backup and the long gun is not in place.
Especially if I’ve commanded her to take it off the stove: they’re sneaky like that
Are you saying a knife couldn’t be threatening just because it’s used in a diner? What a stupid comment. Again, I’m not justifying the shooting, I think the cop fucked up to let it even get to that point, but don’t pretend like it was just a “pot of water”. You can still criticize the officer without lying about the facts.
From that distance? With all the options in the world for cover and escape?
Yeah, you might be right, but my “lie” here changes absolutely nothing in the actual levels of danger that these cops were in, since she did not ahow any sign of aggression and wasn’t holding a deadly weapon like a gun.
What do you mean from that distance? By the time he shot her they were <5 feet apart.
You’re right, it doesn’t change the fact that the cop completely failed at controlling the situation and she is now dead because of that, but it muddy’s the water and creates conversations that don’t need to be had (like this).
I don’t know why you seem to think that getting boiling water thrown at you would be like taking a hot shower, but that could seriously mess someone up for life.
He didn’t “fail to control the situation” he straight up stated that he will murder her and then did.
By the time he shot her they were <5 feet apart.
He kept approaching her.
All he had to do was back away. Or even maintain his distance.
What a horrible thing to happen. Was hear use of “rebuke” odd? Sure, but hardly threatening. I am very curious what the officer has to say in his defence, I do not see hos this could anything other than murder. Perhaps discussion of which degree, but surely murder and not manslaughter.
I am devastated on behalf of Massey’s family and I hope they will eventually find peace.
She seemed to have mental problems and the police should’ve known it and be documented to the address so they send a mental health counselor with police.
The pair of officers come off aggressive from the start. Guy was just itching to do what he did. I’m glad he actually got charged for it.
