    Also I'd just like to ask how well exactly can police officers be prepared for this types of situations? What I mean is ofcourse they train for scenarios like this but are they able to properly mimic their bodies response to a high adrenaline situation?

    In boxing in order to use new techniques you have to actually fight (spar) where there are the same consequences on the line as in a fight and it closely mimics your bodies flood of adrenaline. Do police have the ability to do the same because as most people know thinking becomes much more difficult when flooded with adrenaline and the only way to combat that is to get used to the feeling

    As I assumed, the cops were as courteous and professional as they could have been.

    Dude had a rap sheet and didn't want to go back to jail again because THIS time, he was going to face serious time.

    Most suspects who struggle have prior charges and know they're facing jail time so they've got nothing to lose.

    This one was no different. Also, he punched that cop several times.

    **** this guy and anyone "outraged" another piece of **** is off the street. Thankfully he was too tucked up to bother driving home and killing someone.

    And I'm sure the bad guys won't be able to fill out a form about vigilante brutality.....

    This (defund police) is a case study of how its possible in the name of progress to go so far you end up in a worse situation than you started.

    Stuff like this makes good people honestly think "was I an idiot for trying to do the right thing all the time when all this people are treated better for being worse constantly?"

    I also think this stuff started with the death of the family unit too. I'd like to see if this guy had his father constantly in his life.

    Assuming that's the reason this guy was drunk and passed out in the Wendy's drive through and assuming he resisted arrests because he's unemployed and assuming he is even unemployed its democrats dragging their feet on the return to work issue.
    Having said that your assessment of the incident is seriously flawed. It was just another in a long line of black men resisting arrest. It's the way they do and is a dangerous game to play with cops who fear for their own lives.

    It seems that some groups of people think the rules do not apply to them.

    I think its deeper than that imo, its peo ppl e unable in any avenues able to take responsibility for their actions. Everything is always someone else's fault

    That and it has become part of the black culture to resist arrest. Even those black college girls refused to get out of their cars when cops told them to.

    Everything is Trumps fault according to democrats just like it was when Bush was President. He steered hurricane Katrina into a black neighborhood

    I think Ellen Brown has pretty good access to facts.

    Speaking of which:

    https://4thworldmovement.org/povert...74wJnpA9YHDlsfUtpSQ5_h-KcuJF29CxoCfHkQAvD_BwE

    "In fact, the United States has one of the highest poverty rates in the developed world. One study ranked the United States 29 of 31 OECD countries in 2012.[1] When it comes to child poverty, things are even worse. A UNICEF report found that the United States ranked 34 of 35 developed countries – only Romania had a higher child poverty rate.[2]".


    Disgraceful. Get back to me when poverty rates for blacks are the same as for whites AND the overall poverty rate in the US is the lowest of any nation, as it should be in the richest nation on the planet.

    Trump made this black man get drunk, resist arrest, wrestle with police and steal the taster gun followed by pointing it at them. Damn Trump!

    Why is it up to everyone else to get so many blacks out of poverty? When will we accept the fact that they do not prosper at the rate of other groups. It's not just in the US but in every country in the world. Here in the US, we've thrown trillions at battling poverty and it's only gotten worse. You can't force people to work and succeed at life.

    What the heck did this guy order at Wendy's that got him shot?

    Kinda like this:
    Waitress approaches father and two kids in restaurant. She looks at the little boy and asks "what will you have sweetheart?"

    Boy: "I'll have a damned hamburger"

    The father reaches over and smacks the boy upside the head.

    The waitress tries to recover and asks the girl "and what will you have Sweetie"

    The girl replies " you can bet your sweet ass I do not want a damned hamburger!"

    When a child throws a tantrum and holds their breath when you say no to a demand, what do you do?

    So let’s assume he lets the guy get away. The guy takes a stun gun, kidnaps and rapes someone with said stun gun. Are the police liable?

    No it wasn't sarcasm. The US is "the richest country on the planet", with among the highest poverty rates in the OECD. Both black and white rates have to be reduced to similar rates AND the lowest rates in the OECD, if you want the country to stop burning, because a large enough group of whites are sympathetic to the plight of blacks in the US.

    Meanwhile you can fiddle about with granting people freedoms, so they don't get caught up in police action.

    Hmmm. highest poverty rates in the OECD; poverty rates for blacks double that of whites. Any relation to the drug problem?

    Hmmm.... you think cops shoot a suspect without considering it was necessary? Interesting. If a citizen did that it would be called a crime, do you think it any different if a cop does it? If so, why?
