This will conflict liberals, as the cops shot a black man but the black man also had a firearms related warrant. So what do they love more, minorities or common sense gun laws?Annddddd there it is:
"records show Wright was being sought for fleeing from law enforcement officers and for possessing a gun without a permit during an encounter with Minneapolis police in June. In that case, a statement of probable cause said police got a call about a man waving a gun who was later identified as Wright"
I've said the entire time this is not a race problem... it is a police problem. Police are shooting the s#^t out of white folks, too. And POC cops are just as bad as non-POC. It has far more to do with the culture and the training... and maybe even with the personality traits of the individuals that are drawn to that line of work.Saying "PoLiCez are BaDand RaCIsTaND WaNT 2 KiLLZthE BLacKpEOplE" doesn't cut it (and no i am not saying this is your stance)
Imagine if cops jobs were like Chips and they never had to worry about being shot at or maybe the cops were like sledgehammer and they could cuff the cops to the door jam and drag them to jail.
If only the idiots in the media could comprehend that but no its only blacks that get noticed by themI've said the entire time this is not a race problem... it is a police problem.

The dude had an active warrant and chose to drive away, resulting in a pursuit.
Why is it so damn hard to follow simple procedures from police officers?
If he would have just gave himself up, this wouldn’t even be a story.
Again i disagree in the numbers you state...there are no more "bad" police as there are "bad" lawyers, doctors, teachers, truck drivers, etc.I've said the entire time this is not a race problem... it is a police problem.

A female cop shot him. She thought she had her taser out but it was her gun. Just saw the video.
She shouts "taser, taser, taser!" fires her gun and then says "oh **** I shot him"
Wow
Typically tasers are worn on the opposite side of sidearms for that reason. But if things happen fast and the muscle memory is draw right there can be serious consequences.That right there seems to happen more often than police officers like to have happen .... it's a grave mistake.
Tasers are worn too close to their fire arms on their uniforms ..... that needs to change somehow.
