Not listed on the warranty, doesn't live there, totally zero involvement, and they refer to him as a "suspect" when they talked about how they murdered him in the press conference. Sickening.
When will they make electric stunning rubber bullets?
You could be sleeping and armed thugs will wake you up at 7am to point guns at you, never mind the fact that itβs hard to understand them because you just woke up mid sentence.
Dam less then 3 secs of buddy waking up they shot him. They had to slow it in slow motion just so you can see it. He had no record so people can't say he was a pedo or something and it was the wrong house but I love to see how folks will try to criminalize this one. I also hope Candace owens Brandon and many other conservatives show support for him and keep that same kyle rittenhouse energy they had…
How are no knock warrants constitutional. Rights in this country are an illusion. We have the illusion of being free.
When will black folks realize we are better segregated. We owned ourselves business, controlled & maintained an economy & were at peace with each other as soon as we integrated we had hell to pay.
He started raising a gun to the copsβ¦
Amir Locke defended his home and property by using the 2nd and 4th ammendment but is a criminal to you people, but Kyle Rittenhouse driving 3 hours from his hometown to kill people in the street on public property makes him a hero?
Maybe not pulling a gun out??
That's why we do black lives matter couse cops want to keep messing with black people leave us alone yo
He was holding a gun, give him a few more seconds and he shoots a cop. The cop may not have done the right thing, but he did use his only realistic option. For anyone who disagrees, picture yourself in his shoes, you have been told that you are arresting someone suspected for homicide, you enter the apartment and see him waking up with a gun in his hand. What would you do? Stand there and get shot or shoot. The choice is yours.
Hope those cops get dragged in the streets
The fact the police chief tried to tell us that they yelled Police before entering the room is ludicrous. Like wtf do you think we can't see what happened for ourselves or do you just think we're dumb.
Don't pause the video… show us the full video.
Who's the nimrod who decided no knock warrants were a good thing
There is no reason for no knock warrants. If you have the place surrounded and are capable of establishing proper surveillance, I don't see how they're even needed in modern times. We're capable of breeching second floor walls, using thermal optics, and more than capable of using audio and video surveillance, so why are officers still using this tactic? I'm not stating the person involved is or isn't a criminal, just my opinion on no knock warrants.
Can we ask
What did he do to get the police to go to his house
Nigga get killed by a cop and they give the cop a paid vacation. How long we gone let this go on?
Cops need to stop preforming "no knock warrants". Many of these people live in neighborhoods where armed burglars routinely break in and rob them. Some even pretend to be police officers as well. This guy was asleep and still confused. Just break in the door and announce yourself before crossing the threshold. Its just as good as a no knock warrant and gives the suspect time to understand police are coming so he better not shoot unless he wants to get lit up. Rather than barging in while a man is sleeping with a gun and giving him a few seconds to figure out if you truly are police or armed burglars

Paid administrative leave? WTF!!!
Sad thing is the cops may beat this. They all should at least be fired if not charged
I hope Amir's family wins BIG!! π°π€
So sad for the lost…
This is sick honestly No knock warrants need to be ban for the safety of everyone they put peoples life at risk this no knock need to ban just like they have been ban in the whole state of Virginia
Here's your answer. He was sleeping on the couch WITH a gun in his hand!!!!! If you are a cop, do you wait until he jumps up and takes you and your partner out and maybe a couple more cops? Why was he sleeping with a gun? I hope his family can answer that. I wouldn't want to be walking to the bathroom at night in that house!
Paid administrative leave is standard when any police officer kills anyone in general. This gotta stop the free world looks up to the US but people here are just getting worse causing not working for a common goal like liberty and happiness
a hunting we shall go. a hunting we shall go.
They police use any excuse to murder us.
End no knock warrants! They are totally unnecessary. Just grab whoever it is when they come out. There are alternatives but the police want to murder.
I can't believe they hide the suspects face. That's BS. And they didn't identify themselves when the victim woke up. They kicked the couch and all you hear as he gets startled awake is "get on the fuckwn ground. " a common thing burglars would say during a home invasion.
No Knock makes No Sense.
I need a new iPhone, several Louis Vuitton bags (for my princesses), a pair of Timberlands and three pairs of LeBrons and what else….?
Itβs throwing me off how the parents are kinda casual about it, moms all smirking..idk
They be thinking Dey going at war w Afghanistan

Here's how these no knock warrants should play out. You pull a no knock
warrant and the homeowner or occupant kills all of the officers
involved, it should be treated as a stand your ground.

IF YOUR REALLY TIRED OF THIS BULLSHIT STOP WALKING THE STREETS CRYING "NO JUSTICE NO PEACE!" THAT DON'T WORK. START EXECUTING THESE FUCKING PIGS AND THOSE THEY LOVE….THEN AND ONLY THEN WILL THERE BE CHANGE!
Let's silently break in first, AND THEN announce that we're police. Police create these situations, never concerning themselves with the actions a reasonable person might take in response. Who among us wouldn't immediately get prepared to defend yourself if you see or hear someone actively messing with your door lock? Either they really are too stupid to think critically, or they are so identified with their ego they are incapable of seeing the role they continually play in these cases. I swear, they're all just mindless drones with a license and desire to kill.
Hello? And yet police STILL, refuse to Out the "source", of the so-called information that led them there in the first place..hmm
Here we go again. Killed for BLACK WITH A PHONE or SUBWAY SANDWICH or JAY WALKING. Thank God I'm not American!
