Dashcam Video Released In Fatal Police Shooting Of Two Black Teens In Florida | NBC Nightly News
The boys were turning away from the cops.
Great work officers!!! You did all of us a service. Cheers
After seeing two cops get mowed down from a previous video then seeing a fully tinted window car. You NEVER know in the streets people are people.
What cop will do shoot me? Guess so
Simple, cause and effect, you play You pay… the police would had never shot if they complied, specially knowing the dash cam was recording.
Good education starts at home, not even in school.
Don’t fucjin try and ram a cop with his gun drawn
01:09 – “I don’t think that it’s implausible to think that they were afraid…†what?
here’s a tip to everyone: comply. do exactly what law enforcement officers tell you to do, especially when they have a firearm drawn on you, regardless of your opinion on police affairs.
these were senseless deaths of kids. yes; 18 year old people are classified as adults, but 18 year old human beings are still kids to me. these kids should still be alive, but a critical mistake was made.
Everyone who is foolish enough to defend the actions of the teen are stupid if you were about to get runner would you shoot your gun? I like how the officer didn't shoot until he was in danger and not before it really shows how tough this job can be
If someone try to run me over…better believe ima shoot
IF YOU PLAY STUPID GAMES, YOU GET STUPID PRIZES
Well they didn’t comply sooo
sickle cell blood everywhere
Smfh horrible
Appears to stop the vehicle? Bro was lining up the car at the cop like a pool shot media and criminals getting shot is so over blown
I tell you this they keep on killing our people and you think we're going to sit back and just continue this slaughter!?! Is this a race war or what is it because we're getting an elated! I tell you one more thing keep it up it's not going to turn out the way you think it will
I only know of one incident where a man complied but got killed but black folks will never use it as an example
cop wanted some action. Thats all. He wanted a taste of blood. Just like a predator.
DYING IS FOR STUPID PEOPLE.
STAYING ALIVE IS NOT A WHITE SECRET.
ALL ANYBODY HAS TO DO IS FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS 🤣
All you have to do is comply
lol, nice. 2 less.
He didn’t accelerate towards the deputy it’s called trying to drive away 🤣
if they had stopped and not try to run over the cop the would still be alive today.
Of course, cops think all nice cars driven by black people are stolen
Definitely self defense
L bozos 😹😹😹😹👎👎👎👎
Play stupid games win stupid prizes
I have a question, forget black or white, how come people give excuses for cops to fire whenever they feel threatened or think their life is in danger but don’t give any leniency to the person being aimed at? Maybe they feared for their lives also and made some bad decisions just like cops do. It works both ways. Nobody wants really wants to die and none of us know how we’ll react in that moment, even if you say you would’ve stopped or done this or that, you don’t know how your brain will react when adrenaline and fear is pumping. Not defending these guys but speaking for others that may have been in similar circumstances.
🤣
Both sides are wrong. These abominations are endless.
They are abominations. Nothing has stemmed the murderous tide. Nothing has suppressed the murder inclinations. Murderers!!!
Justice served
I've seen people complying and not get shot . Your odds are way better than if you don't comply
Disrespectful teenagers
Hate Crime
Crazy people comment on here and lie because they are GUILTY and continue to lie because of guilt.
Hopefully the officers responsible for this face charges somehow because this is very ignorant and careless.
Comply to what?? They were following them without sirens on and blocked the road without reason as well. The kids weren’t suspects of anything, obviously avoiding confrontation when they knew they weren’t at fault of anything. It appears to me, watching this video, that the police were after someone other than the kids, the reason they (the kids) drove in the direction of the uniformed people standing in the street. They were supposed to move out of the way as uniformed employees of some organization.
I love how the ignorant love to take the cops side nomatter if there wrong or not. You clearly see they did not try to hit the cop. He tried to get away swerving around the cop. No reason to shoot
Justified killing. He’s driving at the police officer after he yelled to stop 6-7 times. Maybe he was trying to go around the cop, or maybe go straight at him. The cop has every right to assume that possibly he’s going to get run over and to neutralize the driver. You crazies believe the cop should get run over first then start shooting. I will tell you, shut the F up.
You said the vehicle accelerated toward the officer if an officer has his gun out he is A threat. In the video you can clearly see the officer sthe officer stepped in front of the vehicle speeding off speeding off the vehicle was not going toward an officer the officer stepped in front of the vehicle he put his life in danger himself.
All he had to do is to stop
it is very unfortunate situation. That kid got scared but the deputy made what he was trained for. Ofc he will look for his life first
Great jobðŸ‘ÂÂðŸÂ¿
BS that's what you get for teaching kids to not comply with policw
You have the police with their gun out telling you to stop and you don't stop?? Stupidity can be fatal
This is stupid , teach your kids not to run from police . If he got away he could have killed someone with the car . He wasn't going to stop .
Imagine giving birth and being happy that you had àhealthy little child then they GET KILLED
