jesus fucking gawd that video is ridiculously brutal. Sitting there watching someone you love die while a police officer is yelling shit and looking at him bleed the fuck out is seriously fucked up. I don't even fucking know what you can do at this point with your cops their training has to be entirely suspect from the ground up. I mean you legit need to do a top down clean sweep of all of your police forces because clearly there are a lot of hands being held above a lot of heads for this shit to continue like this. How the fuck does someone end up getting shot over a broken taillight? Like legit, that's on the level of some only in the movies type drama but it's happening for real right now.

is that the cop cursing at like -6:30?

this occuring right after the baton rouge stuff... i hope this goes worldwide. put these cops on front street. something has to change.
 
Didn't know Facebook had this sort of live option..not a member. I'm guessing they'll be squashing that shit real quick. Good luck to the man if he's still with us..

RIP to the young man. Once again, the fucking thugs in this country are running rampant.
 
"It's okay, Mommy. It's okay, I'm right here with you"

From the mouth of a babe with his handcuffed mother just after their father was killed for no apparent reason.

I am in no way shape or form condoning his actions. I am just stating what I heard in the video.

I feel like throwing up right now. This needs to stop.
Ah, sorry about that then. It's so hard to tell sometimes given how lots of people will actually side with them.

I just feel so disgusted. This keeps happening over and over and it's utterly terrifying.

Man, posting to Facebook Live is going to have to be the go-to for these unfortunate circumstances. No way police can have the phone "mysteriously" disappear by doing that.

"It's okay, I'm right here with you" by the kid...

Truly horrible.

I think I want a type of dash cam, and body cam that I can activate by a foot button or something. For body cam when walking around, activate it by puckering my butt cheeks or something. I doubt I'd be able to take out my phone, unlock the camera and get it recording safely. I don't know how she wasn't shot, maybe it's a white, or bright phone.
 
I don't understand what the point of parading the woman out at gunpoint of the car then arresting her was either. That is supposed to be standard protocol?

Foreword: this post is not defending the cop. It's trying to state he should never have been a cop to begin with and that the system is fucked.

You know, not defending him or anything, but if I was that cop I probably would have ended up shooting someone too. I can't imagine being in a situation where you're told everyone is packing, you know you could be shot at any time, and you're taught to fear everyone.

If it was my first day, I would have likely panicked and shot the dude too regardless of his race or colour. But then, that's the reason if I was in the USA I should never be allowed to be an officer. Ever.

Entire system is fucked.

Edit: don't take this the wrong way. The cop killed an innocent man. It's upsetting, depressing. I'm trying to point out that the entire system is fucked, and built on a horrible culture of fear, racism and mistrust.
 
I'm done with reform. Law enforcement have had decades to do just that. So many unrecorded murders, so many recorded murders like this one. No true reform.

Shut it down. Make something better.

He sounds freaked out and frazzled as hell. Sounds like he's in tears.

He could be crying for his mother, no shits still given. Fuck that pig.

Edit:

In fact, I feel sick. I feel like throwing up. This needs to stop.

fuck off. You don't have common fucking sense or a backbone to do your fucking job. Don't do the fucking job then. Cops aren't dying at some astronomical rate. Because you're murdered on the street or in jail for killing a cop.

There ain't shit to justify how police are fucking cowards.

Yeah. It's horrific. This seems to happen on a daily basis and frankly, I have no idea what to do. I wish I knew. The only thing I know I can do at this point is stand in solidarity with the black community.

Don't you dare be rude to me. The cop shouldn't have shot him and he's killed an innocent man. I'm not defending anyone, I'm just trying to explain that the entire system is fucked and that cop should never, ever have been able to handle a firearm.

The system and YOU are fucked.

Just fuck off

This poster pulses with an appeal so broad the typical restraints of our societies fall by the wayside.
FB video is gone, or at least inaccessible temporarily.

Fucking disgusting

Did you know Halo invented the FPS?

Supersonic, idiotic, disconnecting, not respecting, who would really ever wanna go and top that
So I'm sure Trump and the NRA are going to go to rally for these people if he really was licensed to carry. Right? Right...
 
You shouldn't be numb. You should be angry. Each one of these should make your angrier. If you're a white guy watching these videos daily, you should be real fucking angry, at the tragic loss of life and the fact these continued murders are going to break down our society.

There are going to be more justifiably angry black people who are going to take matters into their own hands because they have no other recourse and black people, asian people, and white people are going to be caught in the crossfire. The point is coming where no fucks will be given.

Just don't block traffic!

This is important. There are good cops and evil cops but none of that matters if the system is evil too.

Entire system is fucked.

theoretically, if you were the officer you should have been trained to handle these situations. and people are supposed to tell the cop if they are carrying and licensed.

so your point is kinda.... ughh...

Yes. training is part of the issue. he should never have been given a firearm. I posted an edit to my above post. Here:

wtf, why would the video go down
it violates TOS for graphic violence unfortunately
i think they could make exceptions sometimes though but whatever facebook
, I'm sure someone downloaded it and it'll be up on youtube shortly.

You will not post content that: is hate speech, threatening, or pornographic; incites violence; or contains nudity or graphic or gratuitous violence.
