    Why is his race repeatedly mentioned?

    Why are racists taking over your media? It's horrifying.

    The same reason why it's not mentioned every time a black dude is shot and killed downtown...

    Narrative.

    They haven't even released this Black persons name yet, probably because he has a Rap sheet a Mile long. It would be nice to see ONE! thread started about ONE! of the 370 Friggen White People the Police have shot this Year, but NO! the only Race that anyone ever decides to post about is a Black one Killed by Police. So! sick and tired of these Oh! No another Black person shot by Police threads that I could really give a **** anymore. It's a worn out subject just like Racism which has become a modern day version of the Boy who cried Wolf. Blacks at 12% of the Population have shot and murdered almost TWICE! as many White People (514) compared to Whites at 76% killing Black people (234) according to the latest 2018 FBI statistics.

    Yet another Democratic party run city. Yet another abuse of power. When will the citizens wake up to the reality of this? I watched the body cam. This cop gave an order, wasn't followed, and the guy in the garage died. When will folks just start complying with the orders of police? Had dude complied, likely he wouldn't be dead. But, this seems to be a disturbing trend these days in cities run by democrats. It's like a pattern or something......

    My guess is that folks will use this tragedy to convince themselves that looting and burning down the local businesses should commence immediately.

    It's just the left pushing their usual race war to keep blacks voting for them.

    It's so obvious at this point it's laughable.

    Kids will be reading about this in history books in 50 years and asking their teacher if people were really that dumb.

    Completely justified shoot I'm sure. It's the protesters who are the problem.

    The media appears to be a hotbed of racism. You can tell because they constantly decry racism.

    An unarmed man was walking camly out of a garage and the officer shot him, and then let him die without offering first aid. How is that justified?

    Because he smoked weed once 20 years. Remember these are the same extremists who think that terrorist Ashli Babbit was innocent and shouldn't have been been put down.

    Wonder why the sound is muted until after the shooting? All you can see is a guy walking and pointing his phone at the cop. Couldn’t tell what was in his other hand or what was said to make the cop shoot. But looks fairly mundane. Need audio. What did the dude say when he walked out of the garage? Had to be something extreme to cause a shooting?

    I want to hear the officer's side of things although the vid does look bad I grant you.

    Why were the cops at his house in the middle of the night, all ready for bad guys etc? That doesn't happen to normal people.

    You don't have audio until the cop turns his body camera on. It keeps a running minute of video going but only records audio when the on switch is flipped.
