Why was he wearing a ski mask in the summer time
Ohio is a red state Duh!
Right call.What do you expect when a person with a face mask and firing a weapon first . Justice was served .
This was a good man a good person ! He had never ever not one other time aimed a loaded gun at a police officer and pulled the trigger . Ever not once before this . Not one time !
Charges? This criminal shot at the officers 😂😂
@3:06 those are section 8 apartments(behind him),aren't they nicer than your apartment you pay for?
These three points must be taught at home, pre-K, and K–12, using age-appropriate language:
1 Let the police come to you—don’t walk towards them or run away from them. As they walk towards you, imagine a sitting duck because that’s what you are at that moment. 🦆😂
2 Do exactly what they tell you to do, no more no less.
3 You have the right to remain silent after you have told them I have the right to an attorney. 💕☮🌎🌌
I hope and pray he gets justice.
Dude could have been having a mental break down or something but there is no reason to shoot someone 40 times that’s wild but I can see why they weren’t charged even if what they did was unnecessary. It’s crazy none of the cops shot each other though to let off almost 100 bullets in less then 10 seconds is crazy.
This is crazy, we have cops killing their wives and families, cops choking out their fellow officers and now shooting people continuously after they know that person is dead or dying. 46 bullets. Couldn't they get a 2 year suspension to reflect on what they did. And I thought you couldn't pull people over for taillights anymore. Maybe that's just certain states idk.
94 shots only 46 bullets Landed How Professional is that? That was reckless others could of been shot….. Akron Police Dept. needs to be held accountable
The only crime committed by the police was their TERRIBLE aim. Less than 1/2 of the rounds hit the target. Send the cops back to the academy.
The MAYOR looks like a pale vampire
Racist always out number the comments on these stories
if it was a white man shot by black cops . the cops would still be in jail .
There are so many injustices in the world. I really am sorry for this guy however he made very poor choices that night, he had many chances to stop, to give up, to not point a gun, to not run. Honor him at his gravesite and then go put your anger and energy into something for the better good.
There will never be a time when a person, woman, man or trans, old or young, black or white or any other nationality who pulls a gun on a cop that won't be shot at, once or multiple times. This should be used as a learning experience.
May he RIP.
HERE WE GO AGAIN
SHOW THE VIDEO WITH HIM HAVING A GUN
Jaylen did not have no gun! They planted that gun on him.
Whites only get once if not afraid
Jesus Christ called people everywhere to repent, so if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe with all your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved and inherit the kingdom of heaven and eternal life. To this, people would accept Jesus Christ in life in their hearts and told other people how good he is, how he saves, heals and frees and gives eternal life for free 132
They weren't charged because they didn't do anything wrong
He had a gun he shot wt the officers first they can assume he will shoot again
I think the officers should face a lot of charges and prison
When did Walker shoot first ? Give an accurate time frame of the shooting ! An ACCURATE TIME FRAME ! How many times shot in the back running away from his PREDATORS ? 107/23
So if a person shot at you first and you had a gun ,would you not empty a mag on them?
I can understand a protest if the shooting was unjustified, but this shooting seems justified, although 40 shots is excessive.
THIS AMERICAN VETERAN HATES AMERICA!! #ThisIsAmerica.💔🇺🇸💔🇺🇸💔🇺🇸
A good man? He committed several felonies including attempted murder of a police officer. So kind if got what he had coming.
One less criminal. Great news! That “community” and its “culture” is toxic. .. no place in a civilized society.
Remember God loves you♥️!
John 3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life.
Please repent, change your life around and live for Him🙏..
He is coming back soon😊………
here comes the riots
We focus so much energy on the wrong things
Always had gun but none when they got to him What kind of cops are these??? & the need for so many rounds Those cops must have thought they were in Afghanistan “Trigger happy cops“ disgusting Shameful It’s good to live in a country where cops don’t have guns (exception of spec cops)
🤣
Protesting the deaths of criminals like this truly damages the protests for true victims of police related deaths.
He shot first… It's either a man doing his job or a guy trying to get away with it. Jury had it right.
1less criminal
I am glad I was born in Australia Americans put up with awful things with police brutality and school shootings I don’t know why Americans don’t want to live in Australia and get a Visa. It’s much safer in Australia then United States in Australia has good health care and it has Centrelink
Was it that important over a traffic stop. Really? They could have waited and gone to his house. Shot 40 times because he ran.
These officers are known. They'll get their comeuppence.
94 shots in less than nine seconds they call that in a military Overkill to the extremes which triggers a mandatory investigation because of a Mafia gangland-style shooting from the back even they had to make a special rule for the special people because they will shoot people in the back the most dishonorable way to confront someone that implies a person is extremely sneaky and more than likely obviously deadly and feels no remorse
Thank God
Well I am never living in Ohio lol.
the stupid ones to the Smart ones and then we all become a little stupider and then because we are stupid we repeat the cycle again and go deeper into the hole
