SHOW ME THE MONEY!
I don't understand. There is an entire generation of black and brown parents who have instructed their kids to simply comply with the police whenever they are stopped whether walking or driving for the simple fact that they could be killed over something minor if they don't. That single story was national news for weeks in bringing all nationalities, races and creeds of Americans into the awareness of that. Nonetheless, contrary to that a good deal of people are dying over some level of resisting arrest. And I am not excusing or condoning what happened and that is not to say he would not have been killed if he complied but it just seems to me that running as well as resisting arrest substantially raises the probability of death. Not to mention, the laws across the nation in regards to marijuana are going to be changed. That said, is it really worth the risk of being killed over a little bit of weed?
3:27 This attorney is spot on here. It is clearly evident the man is trying to go around the blockade, not through it.
Look, “backing the blue†doesn’t mean supporting anything the cops do. A lot of cops toe the edge of their SOP’s in these sorts of situations and claim they were in danger to justify being scared. It’s ok to be scared but you need guys that can stay focused and accurately assess the situation. Half these guys act like they’re trying to earn combat action ribbons. Enemy combatants in designated combat zones are regularly treated with higher regard than US citizens.
Just think what would have happened if the Cop wasnt so gung ho to bust him for something? American Cops seem to want a reason to harass and kill you
oh come on now. he drove at the police with a thousand plus pound hunk of metal. 100% justified.
dude woke up thinking he was in a gta game = WASTED
He shouldn't have driven off that was silly especially given the climate however you can clearly hear the cops say 'motherfucker' soon as he pulled off they were waiting on this confrontation I guarantee you they've ran into each other before
In the full video… THEY went after him to kill him. He was trying to get away. They have a habit of killing people who are trying to get away and it needs to stop.
Scary cowards is more like it come on he didn’t even drive into the police and they had no reason to confront him in the first place
"he was able to swerve and maneuver through them" but why? lmao comply that simple.
He is Rotting in hell for all eternity
Sleeping in your car is not a crime. There are millions of homeless people sleeping in cars right now. I’ll never understand why people think they’re going to outrun the police. It’s the dumbest thing in the world. Your going to jail. Just go and see if someone can bail you out. Trying to get a way in a car will always cost you your life and more time. I don’t get it and I am a Black man. Don’t fight with police. Go to jail to live another day. Sadly the police did the right thing. He used the car as a weapon.
and we dont know yet if that car was stolen
He drove his car at the police officer. I suppose you can split hairs and say he didn't hit anyone but the cops have to make a split second decision.
I was there when this happend. Now I am not trusting any police department on america ever again.
He could've just complied with the officers and step out the car. Idk why he ran, he could've just listened to the officers and his death could've been avoided. I don't think it was race realated or harassment. I think the cops did what they had to do, anyway, R.I.P
On point
Lol they weren’t In harms way? Ok
The car can be used as a weapon
she just talk talk ..was not there she do not know what happen..black man and any.. colores need to listen to the police ..this lawer. not even know what is going on ..pls even if he was good he just to listen to the police..he is the one how made him self get kill..
There was know probabul cause
bro woke up thinking this was a dream or a nightmare, its no way he thought he woke up in the real world
You run you get shot period he could kill innocent people while running from police…you get what you deserve
So what happens if they didn’t shoot him? He would have kept going, high speed chase & potentially endanger/kill other people??? Come on… I normally stand against these police shootings, but this is a case of play stupid games win stupid prizes. Stop creating false narratives
It’s a good shoot. Unfortunately this gentleman got himself killed…..I hope they conduct a thorough investigation into this. Very unfortunate.
Sorry ,but she doesn't have a foot to stand on regarding this sad situation!
He gets what he deserves nothing to do with race. Guy use the car was used as a weapon. He wasn’t harassed. He should’ve just done what he was told. His actions what got him killed not the cops.
Totally love to see something like this. Natural selection at its finest 🙂
Us Police are the worst and most racist of the world.
that dud was an idiot
He was a special kind of stupid … and stupid should hurt
this is murder not cops fearing for their lives. that man was not driving at the cops they are LIARS but this is AMERIKKKA
I'm just glad that the family chose a different lawyer .
I get so tired seeing Benjamin crump
Estos cabrones guardias tienen un abuso! Aquàlos de Puerto Rico nos respetan y alos que no se les dan plomo! No se dejen engañar del sistema! Se ve de primera instancia que querÃÂÂan hacerle daño y tenÃÂÂan algo planeado! El no tenÃÂÂa intenciones de hacerle daño a ninguno de ustedes men 🤧
Nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah
Hey hey hey
Goodbye
Why is it whenever a scumbag criminal gets smoked all of a sudden he was good
If his dumb ass would have just stepped out of his car
Would you bet your life on oh this nice man doesn't want to hit cops
Here's the problem. I am white if I was attempting to drive around them I wouldn't be dead cause they wouldn't shoot. Thats the problem..
There’s no swerve thru lol this is not a video game…
Poster children for zero accountability. FOH
And she’s already at the law firm Maybe if people did what they’re told this wouldn’t happen. I tell my son if you get pulled over keep your hands on the steering wheel so the officer can see them. They are protecting themselves. I’m the daughter of an NYPD officer shot in the line of duty. They are people too.
should cops start by disabling car so can not drive, wheel clamp is heavy to drive with always could it be built into other like the jack or part of cop car parts, or use rope in stead how loop around tire and around next tree pole, stone under wheel or what , let air out of front tire deflate it then wake him up , plug in exhaust but then engine head gasket blows . ok plug with remote control open till activated.
THERE WERE 3 COPS!!!…NOT 2…Nice job ABC!!!…Now show the body cam footage of the 3rd officer that almost got cut in half between the 2 cars….seem to have left that part out.
My people it is time to stop being pushed over. The Bible says ,it is a time for all things, it's time
