    Remember cops have way more to lose than to gain if justice starts being meted out on the streets, instead of in courtrooms. Plain and simple, cops are outnumbered.

    Don't celebrate his rap sheet as after-the-fact grounds for shooting him.
    As a person of color, one can see why you have these observations Togey. Do you realize that blacks kill more blacks then whites do? This is a reality observation, not a racist observation.

      When did it become an execution? I though he was shot while doing bad things and created a life threatening situation.
      Are you privy to the investigation? Is that where its going? Perhaps you were there as a witness? Have you offered your testimony to the investigators?

      Hmmmm...now it sounds as though he was restrained, forced to his knees and shot through the head at point blank range. Maybe I have the wrong impression. He could have been tied to a pole in front of a police firing squad.
      Pinned down and given a lethal injection....or electrocuted in a metal lawn chair...or

      Executed. Really? C'mon now.

          JB, reread my posts, and Ray's

          I'm saying we really should see the video, to see if it was necessary.

          Ray's saying he was a scumbag, so justice was done.

          Neither of us has seen the video yet, but one has already jumped to conclusions, on the basis of his rap sheet, after the fact.

            There has been body cam released. I didn't click on anything so they may have been stills. Either way most of the vids aren't going to be released until scrutinized/investigated/determination by those who actually know the law and understand any extenuating circumstances.

            Demands for vids to be released to those who are not educated in such matters can only lead to trouble. And we've seen enough proof of that already.

              Togie is just a bit obsessed with it I guess...I don't know why as the man was a criminal by his own doing.

                Ray you're the OP on this thread. You start a thread presumably to invite discussion, right?

                And there's nothing wrong with keeping an eye on the police. Is there?

                    Follow the money this is what it is all about. That big payday that will set his "kin" on easy street with more easy money then dealing drugs. The families lawyer will collect a huge chunk of it and we are talking millions of tax bucks!

                        If the cops aren't allowed to take out ***holes who can? Well, there used to be an organization whose job it was to keep folks in line.
                        If I should die before I wake...great,a little more sleep.

                          Anyone who thinks cops should be held to less scrutiny as opposed to more scrutiny needs to watch this.



                          These vids pile up by the day.

                            I thought he handled it pretty well.

                              RE the video of the arrest of the woman I wonder what she was wanted for? It must have been something bad!

                                and , NC has a law about releasing vids from 'Cop Cams' so meanwhile they have reviewed, and ruled,


                                if you or anyone want trial by media, that may not happen there,


                                and needs to not happen here,
