  1. Thank hod he wasn’t Black or at least he wasn’t Black.

  2. Pigs keep getting away with murder and this is what happens

  3. SEATTLE SEATTLE SEATTLE SEATTLE WHO HAS THE HIGHER VALUED LIVES?

  4. They can make their windows darker on the sides so you can't see in. That wouldn't be expensive.

  5. Sister says he has problems, why did he have access to a gun?

  6. He wasnt any important to justs the rest of the world

  7. Which one of his homies getting the 250k?

  8. Mentally ill people should not be allowed to possess firearms. Why is that difficult to comprehend? Makes no sense.

  9. Now saying “one has mental issues” seems to be the latest “get out of jail” card, that suspects’ families to the suspects themselves, are trying to play to get out of being convicted or convicted w/less punishment, for such heinous crimes as murder.
    This suspect’s family jumps right to that conclusion though they didn’t seem to consider him dangerous or even a threat, to let him live w/them vs reside in a 24/7 mental facility. So why now is his mental status an issue for them to bring up & broadcast to news reporters??
    Interesting eh.. 🤔

  10. 72 is Jesuit order code in gematria

  11. Here in Philly we had several murders…..No SWAt no show of force.
    So why is it that a cops life is any more important than an average citizem ?

  12. Mentally ill my azz. He should get the "Electric Chair." Maybe if we start back punishing idiots like this instead of giving them bullsh*t plea deals we would have less people shooting up innocent people.

  13. But for all the gun nuts – don't take away their guns even if they're mentally ill.!!! ….. 👿

  14. This is so heartbreaking 😢

  15. Isn't this the sheriffs department with multiple gangs? Got what all cops deserve, looked like a skill issue lul

  16. Too bad CA has such lax gun control laws (apologies, my anger tends to turn to sarcasm). My heart goes out to the deputy's family.

  17. I thought we were defunding the police?

  18. The mental illmess excuse in the U.S. is getting old. Yes, mental illness needs addressing, but lets face it, young people in the U.S. are being raised to hate. Especially republicans who seem to be grooming hate in people young and older. Sorry to be so blunt, but the dogwhistling and hate soeech will affect the psyche of some. Its obvious.

  19. OH HERE WE GO AGAIN!! SOOO PREDICTABLE!! OH HE'S GOT PROBLEMS! HE'S SICK! HE NEEDS MENTAL HELP!! NEVER!!! HE'S BEEN GIVEN A GOOD LIFE, STILL LIVING AT HOME, ON & ON!! IT USED TO B CALLED SPOILED, UNTIL IT BECAME A GOOD DEFENSE!! OH! DON'T FORGET TO BLAME THE GUNS!! PROBABLY, THE MOST WITH GUNS, ARE GANG MEMBERS!! I GUESS THEY'RE ALL BLAMELESS TOO!

  20. Put that scum in Prison for life! Greetings from Australia 🇦🇺

  21. Make up your minds NBC. Either you support the police or you don't.

  22. OK, got him, he's mentally ill, his family is defending him. Time to move on.

  23. That’s why we have mental support I told you police triggers us this another static from white men who punished us for centuries and now we are trigger in our blood that we can’t even control our adhd

  24. Cops shoot someone innocent – well sorry, qualified immunity. Brown person shoots cop – cops appalled.

  25. What a shame he was taken alive😡Now he'll get a trial & food &a lawyer.😡

  26. I don't understand why police vehicles are not bulletproof

  27. Salazar? Yea just another SPIC!

  28. THE KILLER IS THE PERFECT PICTURE OF WHAT'S WRONG WITH AMERICA, INDIVIDUALS WITH MENTAL ISSUES OWN GUNS.

  29. Republicans fault ban guns now gop sucks

  30. He play way too much gta

  31. It ain't nothing new take away guns from officers and take away guns from the motherfuking street and how many times have I been saying that s***

  32. And you got so many snitches on the block come on officer

  33. Sory, mental health don't cut it.
