I posted that before I read the article, after reading the article I'm confused as to what his change of mind is. There isn't a single place in either article that quotes him as saying he doesn't think we should have cops.

all the city councilmen and mayoral candidates in fresno are campaigning on who can hire the most cops and how to pay for it. it's just a choice of whose plan to flood the city with cops you like more, there's not a single one saying we're fine as is or we should have less.

jeez, the shooting is terrible but the next minute and a half is just as bad. Do police ever give first aid to people they shoot? I realize it's best interest just to let them die, but man. Tough to watch.

Also, going back to King's "why I never believe what cops say after they shoot someone" piece:

Quote

Crutcher approached the responding officers on foot and failed to put his hands up when the cops ordered him to, police said.

"He refused to follow commands given by the officers," Tulsa police spokeswoman Jeanne MacKenzie told the Associated Press. "They continued to talk to him, he continued not to listen and follow any commands."

*edited to add the part about hands being up

by that police logic, we should be shooting toddlers on a daily basis

This doesn't make any sense and it makes me sad.

I mean, how did the cops arrive in the first place? Looks like dude was broke down on the road and needed help.

I'm thinking this is a classic case shooting someone by accident and then trying to make it seem justified after the fact. This time the shooter is actually a cop and not a moonlighting dentist.

The radio just said this is untrue and she followed police protocol

Related to some people being shocked that a 13 year old kid matched the description of armed robbers:

I think the cops shot another unarmed black man in charlotte yesterday but maybe that is already in another thread. From what I read he was waiting to pick up His son from school or something.

Yeah Keith Lamont Scott. http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/keith-lamont-scott-fatally-shot-n-c-cops-warned-repeatedly-n651846

Police: He had a gun, ignored commands, was a threat.

Family/witnesses: He was disabled and was reading a book.

Not good.

For the record, I'm all for the civil unrest in Charlotte last night, could do without taking crap out of semis and burning it though.
