The dude punched the cop in the face, stole his taser, resisted arrest, and was clearly a threat to anyone he might come across. Cops had no choice - did what they were trained to do.
If we don't support our police, the murder rates will be unlike anything we've ever witnessed. Bottoms missed the mark on this one.
This idiot would've been in jail for DUI and back on the street. Now he's dead. Bad decision on his part.

South of I-20, west of I-85--inside I-285. Don't go there--it is a replica of chicago, DEADLY!! rr

This is s tough one LB they did everything right even while grappling then the shooting its going to trial just have to see what the DA will charge if anything. I would not like to be on the jury. Reasonable people see this two ways. One way almost guaranteed unrest may see anyway if charges arent viewed as sufficient. Overcharge could get him off. We are seeing many retirements and low recruiting. I hope trumps executive order immediately address some of the worse issues. Its not so much the cops its the cities political will to do the right thing whether reform or support

Its not so much the cops its the cities political will to do the right thing whether reform or support I'll be shocked if this turns out even reasonably well. Guys that can draw a pension will quit. New guys without much time invested will look for other jobs. Recruiting will be down. Older guys who are only a year or two from a pension will be extra careful not to get involved in sticky situations.

Honestly fiddling I have no idea why anyone would want to be a cop in a big city right now. I expect the smaller towns to be able to recruit well at this point. Pay is lower but respect for the law is much higher and the job itself is not nearly as stressful. I admire those willing to serve but I don't see this ending well for any large metro area that isn't willing to prosecute crime and back their police forces. Things could get out of hand quickly once you have enough cops quit. Also, the will to prosecute is fading fast. I'm extremely glad I live out in the sticks but I certainly feel for the good folks who remain that can't get out of town. Very sad situation all the way around.

Even in a small town, it's not a piece of cake. What they say they want is better quality and better trained officers. What they don't realize is they are already getting the cream of the crop among folks who are interested in that type of job. Unless they figure a way to change attitudes of politicians and the general public, quality will go down, not up.

Yeah--all those kiddies at Kent St were peaceful--just like the looters and thugs and burners today. Rocks thrown, anarchist in uproar, buildings burned across college campuses, riots and destruction.
Of the guys I was stationed with at that time--Walter Reed AMC on the border of DC and Silver Spring, Md---90% supported the shootings at that time. Peaceful demonstrations on college campuses were anything but peaceful---the ROTC building was burned at UK.
YEP--had I been there--I would have been part of the shooting.

They gathered about 50 or so of us cops in a big room, supposedly ready to deploy as soon as the orders came through. Gave us a big speech, but they gave us M-16's with NO AMMO. I said, "No bullets-no go." I guess they didn't hear me, because there was no answer or repercussions. The orders never came, so we were never deployed. At least Barney Fife got 1 bullet.

It's strange, there are STILL many people that dont get the fact that we are at war for America. That somehow these are separate events. They are all a sting of attacks by the same global elites (deep state)

When you have a deep state in cahoots with 2 political parties you damn well better believe an event is coming.
Then when one (event) arrives like the chinese sniffles that kills terminally ill people, many of the masses slap on a useless oxygen inhibitor to look like a domestic terrorist group.
People are sheep.
