Changed it for your ass

Warning shots???

This guy literally said it was a matter of inches and seconds, even says she was winding up & he says take the time to send off warning shots lol

I’m with everybody else in here. That was just a dumb idea lol

Cop did nothing wrong and it’s been f*** 12 my entire life. We gotta stop acting on emotion with these hashtags and trends. Ole girl was .2 seconds away from being a murderer and she clearly ran up on the girl so no I don’t have sympathy. I only have sympathy for the black people falling for white liberal media traps that sensationalize these deaths for ratings which causes more tribalism amongst Americans. I mean at this point we can’t be defending ANYTHING just because a police officer is involved.

Warning shots? Tasers? Lmao y’all niggas are delusional man none of that s*** is standard training in that situation, and neither had a good chance of preventing ole girl from being stabbed. When does personal responsibility come into play for the adults outside? For the teen? Nah we gotta move with logic and not emotions this time.

I meant a regular warning wouldn't of seemed to work. The girl saw red & wasn't listening to any voice of reason at that very moment. possibly firing a warning shot would snap her out of it, but then again maybe nothing would. yeah I know cops dont actually practice that s*** in the us so the only option really is some type of use of force unfortunately.

That’s wild man. Why couldn’t they just use a taser? These cops are way too trigger happy and it makes me sick.

By accounts of witnesses that were there the girl in pink was attacking her

id trust them over cops 100% of the time

Why are you bringing up the “blue lives matter” chants? That is completely immaterial if the officer who fired the shots was not saying it lol. It’s heinous and the PD as a whole is a piece of s***, but why even bring that up in your post?

If it was your younger sister or mother about to be stabbed to death, you’d have a different reaction. You wouldn’t be happy, you wouldn’t defend cops, but you’d acknowledge the incredibly sad situation that resulted in the loss of life while still being grateful that your loved one was still alive to hold onto.

😂😂😂

I’m dead. I see the media is working as intended. Yeah let’s upend society for something that is not even remotely close to black America’s biggest problem.

Surely the bigger question you'd ask is why your sister or mother went to the girl that was murdered's house, and attacked that girl in the first place?

Now imagine your mother/sister was at home, had someone else come to her home and attack her.... then she called the police for help and in the meantime picked up a knife to defend herself, then later the cop murders her as she was defending herself (which shes legally obliged to do)..... that sounds a hell of a lot worse than the story you tried to suggest

Bro we literally have no idea how the girl in pink was attacking Mak’hia

What was said during the 911 call

What happened before the bodycam footage

If Mak’hia was attacked, with fear for her life, that changes the story. But the girl in pink was chilling before she came at her with the knife.

You’re not legally obliged to kill someone in “self-defense” if you’re in a common/minor squabble that teens or people often get into. I’m thinking back to school fights before breakfast in the cafeteria.

Did y’all keep this energy for the POS rittenhouse? We’re on a very slippery slope here

body cams arent bias towards anyside, witnesses said that she threw the knife away but you can clearly see the girl had the knife about 2 inches from the other girls neck. but continue you pick and choose what happened in this incident here if you want to

Also I do not disagree with you. A couple pages back, I even mentioned whether it should even be up to a cop to make the judgement and kill someone based on who he thinks is “good” or “bad” guy in any situation. Like a robbery where he has no idea who is the robber and who is a hostage.

Chasing someone with a knife isn’t self defense

facebook has eliminated the concept of people having an actual thought about something

A warning or even letting shots off in the air wasn't gonna do anything in that situation she was inches away from stabbing the girl man

Only other thing in this situation that may have stopped her was using the taser

If cop working under the assumption that if pink was stabbed, she’d die — he would still use the gun rather than the taser?

This is why America hasn’t discovered fire yet

This is what you guys be doing over there smh

This situation was really grey. Would a taser have stopped her and saved the life of the other girl? Who knows. I ain’t proclaiming myself to be a taser expert like most people seem to be. Best case scenario it does work. Worst case scenario it doesn’t and now the cops get blamed for letting a girl get stabbed right in front of them.

This is why they need more education and more training. It’s situations like this where no matter what option you pick you might be in the wrong. They gotta learn how to handle these.

Obviously if it’s me about to get stabbed I’m hoping they shoot the assailant. I ain’t tryna die. But from the outside looking in we see all the other options yet still can’t say for sure what the right thing to do is

We have the technology to invent non lethal weapons that are more effective than guns at stopping people

He shot into a group of people fighting
WTF he could have hit multiple people

Grown man can't handle a 15 year old with a knife
