19 Year Old college athlete killed by Arlington Police Officer

[Mark Antony]

Damn. Goes back to our police are completely untrained to address any sort of mental issues. It's like dudes are completely incapable of communication, and have tasers for no reason. Please have a talk with your kids when they head off to college man to be careful who they hang out with, and to keep it contained. Son was tripping that hard, no way anyone around should have let him leave.

Yeah after looking at the video I really think a taser would be sufficient in apprehending him. There were also a bunch of officers at the scene so it's not even like it was a one on one situation where using a gun would be more acceptable

Cops in this country are just trigger happy and ready to kill someone the instant they have an excuse they can use to get away with it, no inner remorse or resistive feelings towards taking a life whatsoever

Dude had a bad trip off of something....Personally can't knock a cop for shooting in that situation because them dudes be strong as ****. Also tasers barely work in those situations...

If he came from some type of social function I don't see why his friends would even let him leave alone 

 

[Chopper]

See absolutely no reason for using deadly force. Police state is ridiculous.

 

[mr marcus]

Dude could've charged the police.....who knows because it's not shown

but this is yet another case where the BLM crew jumped the gun AGAIN

twitter/media giving these people too much power

 

[Nawzlew]

all these should haves, could haves.



man they shoulda just shot him in the big toe, woulda made him stumble. and then they could have easily apprehended him.

They so thirsty to get hashtags popping that they start giving them to undeserving cases and taking away from real causes.

This is unfortunate, but I really don't think this is worse than Sandra Bland dying because massa thought she didn't put out her cigarette fast enough...we need to be focusing on that ******** arrest.

I agree but even they went at that wrong...they started pushing that "the police killed her" "she was dead in her mugshot" instead of focusing on that bs arrest 

so when it was shown that she was alive before her mugshot it killed the whole movement 

It's like BLM be point shaving and rigging **** now 

 ......they're very suspect 

 

[Mark Antony]

They are starting to look like plants sent to divert the movement, or have a very small, short term view that accomplishes nothing. Seems very "get your hands outta my pocket".

Dudes first argued that the reports were wrong and after listening to the call the dude didn't drive through the gate or the glass. After watching the vid and seeing dude is obviously on some crazy drug they claim he has mental health issues. Now people are saying a tazer would have been effective after seeing the video as if we can see what happened in the altercation or like we don't know how ineffective tazers are on people on crazy drugs. Cops will NEVER have a justified killing in aome of your guys' eyes.

The cops can recognize a mentally unstable person when they see one, but they don't exactly have time to run some tests and get a diagnosis.

Here's an example of one that's pretty inarguable. Happened in Seattle last month. A guy rammed a police car on I-5 (you see the cop car spin out at the beginning of the video), then took the next exit and led police on a chase. Officer approached him, gave him a heads up that he was being audio and video recorded. The guy pulls out a knife, the cop yells at him to drop it, but he keeps lunging towards him, cop shoots him (end of the video). It's pretty intense, but 100% justified.
