tomcatty: I my opinion his safest course is to kill the suspect, bt he failed to do so even after emptying is gun into him, he was lucky he got away intact.
It wasn't a very safe course of action for Jacob Blake.

Jacob Blake didn't get away intact, either.

Since when has 'to serve and protect' become 'self-preservation at any cost'?

I agree JB reaped what he sowed, he is to blame for what happened to him, i am not saying the whole saga had a good out come, but JB is alive when he could be pushing up daisies.

As for your last statement it doesn't say you should lay down your life when under threat.

I think i would make the same decision as the police officer, it'sa good job crooks don't have to face me JMO

Spare us the poorly reasoned, psychopathic, old man bravado. talk to hand

You can't cope with Spitz in the written word without whining that she's being mean to you and telling her to go away. laugh

If you would make the same decision as the police officer, you've just highlighted a perspective that hadn't really crystallised in my mind, perhaps because it's just too appalling to think about.

CS: Like every other unfortunate 'victim', he chose to ignore the police. They'd all be alive today if they weren't purposely hostile...PERIOD!! Obvious ignorance induced them to resist.

peace frustrated peace

Jacob Blake asked his father today "Why did they shoot me so many times"?

His father answered "They weren't supposed to shoot you at all".

JB's question tells me that he was indifferent to the police ordering him to stop. It's interesting that he thought he could just walk away from the police without any consequences.

Blake was handcuffed to his hospital bed because of an outstanding warrant. They took the handcuffs off today.

Instead of hating on the police...why not instead...promote the family unit...so many blacks growing up have stability...stay out of gangs...crime...stop killing each other...stop taking drugs...stop all the thuggery and youth centre could work...give young people something productive to do and keep them off the streets...but the left turn a blind eye to real solutions...cause the don't really want black people to have stability in their lives and they love division...

The police in America can't pansy foot around....when so many carry guns and black crime is rampant...so those who judge police for trying to stop criminals...might not complain...if a family member was murdered by a drugged up black thugroll eyes

It should be obvious to anyone with a brain...that the left are coming after not just the police...but disarming the American people and the American people MUST NOT ALLOW THIS EVER...cause this would be the end of any freedom Americas have left and they would have no way of defending themselves from domestic terrorist mobs...like Antifa and BLM

I think Mickey make's more sense than others on this thread and he understands how dangerous things are for police on the streets.

mikey4691: I've seen another angle on it with sound.. It was a mad house... Ratchets cursing each other... I can't imagine why anyone would want to be a police officer, and deal with the kind of scum they deal with daily..

Now that officer has lost his lively hood, and the criminal, and his family is set up for life..

You better arm yourselves, cause 911 is gonna be extinct soon..
Mikey, if anyone needs a hug it's you dude..comfort hug drink pouring

Morning all,

I've just caught up with this thread again and thank all those that have contributed in a responsible manner

I look at the incident and yes I do agree about the police taking charge of a situation at that moment in time but they didn't. He got up and walked away ending up with 7 bullets in his back .Not 1 or 2 but 7.

Even on this thread you have division of opinion between American posters .

There is so much hate in the U.S and many other parts of the World for whatever reason at this moment in time. You have the 2nd amendment but from what I can see this is abused in so many ways. What country allows a 17 year old to walk the streets with a rifle and shoot people indiscriminately with the Police doing nothing and finally arresting him at home. His life is now in ruins as he probably faces life imprisonment. That is a travesty in itself.

Side stepping away from this case as of June 2020, there were 34 school shootings in the United States. 2018 had the highest number of school shootings since 1970, with 116 shootings. The right to carry arms is being abused in the hands of the wrong people.

I sincerely hope that we can heal all the wrongs in this World of ours and move forward as a united people but don't see it happening whilst the hate rages on.sigh

Hey Mikey... wave

I know it is so frustrating.. Very often I don't say anything but ... people make purely fictional depiction of events particularly coming from those without direct knowledge of what actually occurred is incredibly harmful and provides no benefit to anyone whatsoever, other than to perpetuate a misleading narrative."

I see where you are hanging out (CS) these days... LOL...Take care! wine

My observations such as they are come from American media . Am I to believe that this is incorrectdunno

I've watched several videos of the incident, have actually not formed an opinion as such as the suspect has never been tried or convicted of any crime to my knowledge ,so I am not here to judge the rights and wrongs of him or label him a scumbag or thug.

It is also not about the right to shoot a suspect who walks away from an"arrest"

My post was about the use of brute force to bring a man down and whether it was warranted.
