    should we disregard our justice system because there's a video if not why you keep referencing the video as though it Trump's the justice system?

    Yes

    Kek is a popular word with the Alt-right. What does it mean exactly?

    No and it was never an ALT right thing that was a smear campaign by the SPL.

    It really is a video game thing it comes from a game where you play as one of two factions and the other faction can't talk to you when they type stuff and send it to you it comes up as gibberish and when you type LOL it comes back as kek.

    And that is the origin.

    OK. Thanks for the information. I have visited a few White nationalist and Alt-right message boards in the past. Those boards were the only places I've seen that word.
    They are fond of a few other words and phrases too:
    "Din dus"
    "Nig nogs"
    "We was kangs and sheet"
    They are very entertaining sometimes. :)

    Well I'm sure they do other things that other people do as well but I know who created the whole thing.

    I have probable cause as being in the vehicle and then consciousness of guilt by fleeing. And of course later the empty clip found in his pocket.

    Well I don't believe the police officer has made a statement can you like me to it? And yes the officer of course has a fear of his life having to walk up to a vehicle with armed suspects who have just committed an attempted murder in a drive by shooting shooting form inside the vehicle. Don't ya think?

    The law has been cited OVER AND OVER. And it is not a matter of a penal code.

    Does probable cause give an officer the green light to put 3 slugs in an unarmed teenager.

    There was another young man who ran too. How do you know it wasn't him who did the shooting? How do you know if the one who did the shooting was even still in the car by the time the police stopped them?Maybe he was running because he was scared of the police, not because he was guilty of the drive by shooting.
    There are too many unanswered questions in this case to say Antwon was guilty.

    When you are suspected in having been involved in a shooting (or any other possible crime), and a police officer COMMANDS you to HALT, then you do so, or, you may be made to halt. The lesson that should be learned (as with the case of some many other similar incidents of this kind) is that when the police COMMAND you to do something, then you'd damned well better DO it!

    Are you talking with the benefit of hindsight? Because both Antwon and his friend were involved in a premeditated homicide attempt. They were fleeing because they were in possession of the weapon used in the crime and the only witness was outside of the car in front of the police officer.

    Without hindsight, the cop was directing suspected armed felons to exit a vehicle. One of them made sudden movements that the cop took as threatening and he pulled the trigger. Antwon wasn't in any obvious running motion at that time.

    I seriously doubt the police got the legal right to execute unarmed people who run.

    A drive-by attempted murder on a public street, doesn't get my dangerous to the public than that.

    Probable cause AT THE TIME, not with 20/20 hindsight. This has been REPEATEDLY posted and cited.


    A weapon does not have to be in his hand nor visable. PROBABLE CAUSE to believe he was armed.


    Actually I would last longer than you as you would probably be dead.

    YES they can as already cited.

    Running after don't work especially if the perp pulls a gun out of his waist and turns and fires. Running don't work if he can run faster and get away.

    And now you absurdly claim the police were JUST running around and JUST saw this car and JUST decide to shoot someone maybe because they were bored or something. What utter folly.

    And execution comes after a trial and conviction. This was an apprehension, learn the difference.

    Should the public fear someone who had just engaged in a drive-by shooting on a public street striking one person and endangering others?

    What trial and conviction? The cop just executed a 17 year old.
    You're making up fake news.

    We don't but then that is why you don't run if the other guy was the shooter. They didn't have to know which one, ALL are considered armed and dangerous and just like the driver of the getaway car in a robbery where someone is killed all can be charged.

    What don't you understand that the law does not require 20/20 hindsight, it is what the officer believes and has probable cause at the time he pulls the trigger.
    I would like you to explain to me why you believe people who engage in drive-by shootings trying to kill someone and with reckless disregard endanger the public have a right to escape capture.

    Well you have to submit to capture and arrest first in order to get your trial don't you.

    Now learn the difference between execution and apprehension.

    If they are are fleeing violent criminal who has just committed a drive-by attempted murder endangering the public and trying to escape capture it can.

    Why you you always in engage in these "lies by omission" tactics. Because you know you do not a legal case to make?
