There's like 30 police departments in Los Angeles which one?
Even if it was a gun, I thought Americans have a right to those. These cops should be brought to Justice.
This is why you never trust any cop! People need to start fighting back against the government there not helping you or your family! Shut it all down we all run this country not them look at this! One of many all over the states!
Criminals lie
Hey! Get all the body cameras. He needs to go to jail for firing for no reason. Hold them accountable just like the rest of the population.
Why in the world would they take his word that it wasn't a gun? The stupid fool refused to listen to the officer and he got what he deserved.
You police AS servant servicing could EXCUSE MR Sr or ma'am allow me to tell you I am here just to do my job I promise if you don't got nothing to lose for iT weall be good please allow me as A officer to treat you each with respect literally eventually even in freedom of speech allowing both side feel comfortable to explain their side of the story
cops are murder squads
Don't forget the L.A. police have different gangs in their department it's a whole news report on it that's why he was shot some type of gang Initiation
Isn't it his constitutional right to have a gun?
Imagine the outcome if people stopped acting like idiots and listened to police. Clearly he was not afraid for his life so that BS line needs to go out the window!
Not to justify the police shooting this guy, but he should have simply complied with their requests, instead of running away while shouting that its not a gun.
Tick tock. Tick tock. The BLM movement was kiddy play compared to what will happen one day. We tried to play nice but….
He should of stopped his own fault really
I love how this is the officers idea of protective and serving. He's too lazy and scared to even pursue
Rip 🪦 when they say drop u drop it this dude happy trigger happy. I felt no remorse for you if you can’t follow through a giving order.
Cops think having a weapon, or if they even think you have a weapon, give them the right to lethal force.
Police think all citizens are threats, especially the non white ones.
FtP
Good guys with guns…right.
Play stupid games…. WIN BIG.
We need to pull up on cops at random and shoot them the same way, we are Americans. Whats the difference between a cop killing you and a street punk?
A lot of people around the world do not take a vacation to the USA because of the Domestic terrorism that is not being called Domestic terrorism (Trump supporters), gun violence that is the number 1 cause of unnatural deaths in the USA and the terrorism that is done by the police that leaves thousands dead and wounded every year.
Justification because the color of his skin and perceived threat within a pigs viewed profile
The point is that if the cops are asking you to stop and at least speak with them you should do that otherwise you’re becoming a suggestion of a threat if you do not comply you should at least get tasered but not shot I don’t know all the details of this video but you should at least comply because there is a law in this country
White people – but the cops are scared 😂😂😂
was it a gun?
Yes it looks like a gun, they said it’s not a gun “Bro” but still didn’t use a taser? And gets charged?
At this point if your pulled over by a cop you might as well shoot at them since they will murder you anyways 🤷 Americas Cops are Criminal Gangs
They act like this because they know they could play the race card
The cops that we running didn’t shoot it was the other officer that was in his police car. It looked like a gun from a distance. Police were called because he threatened someone pretending it was a gun. So what do you want the police to do?? He was running away from the officers. I’m pretty sure if he stopped and put his hands up he wouldn’t of gotten shot.
News making it seem like it was the police fault. Post the whole video.
It’s like theDOJ is still running the defund the police movement… Are we supposed to be mad at the cops or what? where’s the rest of the story? You literally put a clip out there for the public to articulate what they want of it…. where is the investigative journalism to bring us the story… it’s almost as if this was arts and crafts time
Why do we have cops?
Man will receive $10 million settlement paid with tax payer money…….police defunding itself.
Does running away, while claiming your innocent, prove your innocence?
NO!
Good shooting, hope you don't loose sleep over this.
Lock the murderers up!!!
Maybe just drop it. Or, no, getting shot sounds better.
Why don't they use the non lethal tools???
