    Someone fleeing isn't posing a threat...

    He was fleeing when shot, not resisting.

    A change to what, precisely? That law enforcement officers can be made subject to physical assault and lawful arrests may be resisted, and law enforcement cannot take any action except to let the individual go?

    Fleeing is resisting and if they could catch him there would be a fight

    And one who has already demonstrated that they pose a threat, is not legally allowed to "take it back" in order to avoid being met with deadly force in turn. Once one has proven they pose a threat, that is the end of the matter as their actions have justified the use of deadly force as being an appropriate response.

    In the united states, one cannot legally commit assault against another, step back and claim they no longer wish to continue, and then claim they are a victim when they are met with force in turn when they were in the act of surrendering. It simply does not work that way.

    Fleeing isn't resisting. Those two cops were never in any danger.

    Of course they do. Criminals surrenders all the time even after resisting or even assaulting, you have to give them the chance to do it and not shoot them in the back.

    Have you any idea what an officer goes through to make an arrest when the lawbreaker has the element of surprise. Do you have any compassion for officers that are routinely assassinated? The killing of George Floyd was murder. He was killed like a dog in the street. His killer will meet his just deserts. You've had your day. You made a Saint out of a man that didn't deserve to die. Your Martyr had Methamphetamine coursing through his body causing him to make some bad decisions.....but you made him out to be a Saint anyway and you take your emotion and misplaced anger out on anyone in blue. You make it an issue of race for your political appetite. It makes me sick.

    The return fire came a split second after his 1st volley. He shot. He lost.

    He'd be alive if he had just gotten in the car.

    I wasn't aware he had a history and was on parole. If he was strong enough to fight two cops, then imagine his poor children and what they went through. And to think the poor cop lost his job for doing his children a favor.

    "O.K. you shot at me once, I'm giving you another chance, don't do it again"!!!! That's why bleeding heart liberals can't be cops. Besides, they think they're too morally superior to deal with the dreggs of life.

    This is sad. This is very very sad. Rayshard Brooks was only defending himself from a so-called crooked cop who shot him dead twice for no reason. Killing George Floyd in Minneapolis was bad enough. Now this! What is this world coming to? I've seen movies like the French Connection and the New Centurions having white cops cutting African Americans. That should not be displayed. White cops gunning down Blacks regardless whether they're guilty or not. It just isn't right.

    Is it right if a white cop shoots a white guy?
    Or a black cop shoots a white guy?
    Or a black cop shoots a black guy?
    How about a black cop shoots a black Nigerian?
    Or a black cop shoots a Japanese American?
    Or a black cop shoots a Muslim woman?

    Let's stop talking about black and white - we have learned nothing
    since Martin Luther King about judging people by their character
    instead of their skin.

    So I just spent some time researching this and you called me a "psychopath"...... we'll see if you get away with that I research it because I wanted to find out for sure why this Rayshar tried so hard to get away. It appears the post about his record is absolutely true. Very hard to find on the internet that is mostly filled with words adoring this angelic father who was about to celebrate the daughters birthday he loved so dearly.This will all eventually be found out but I don't know if the current media with a Marxist agenda will make it public. They sure resist on the internet.

    So for those that are interested in hearing some truth....here is the public record. He beat his kids.https://turtleboysports.com/wcvb-po...mily-member-false-imprisonment-and-much-more/

    Can I assume this is sarcasm ^ The guy relieved a cop of his weapon and attempted to use it on him. What would you expect the outcome to be? Bet he would have done the same with his gun, had he managed to grab it. How the hell was this him "defending himself"?

    So you can only shoot your twin?
    But can your twin REALLY be like you?
    What if you are a white Anglo Saxon guy and your twin converts to Islam? Is he "different"?
    What if your twin has lost an arm or leg, is he the same as you or is now a "disabled person"?
    What if you support Trump and your twin supports Biden, is he "different"?

    And what if someone really is "different" but has a gun and its down to who shoots first?

    There's a real problem with "different." Once people saw themselves as American. Now people
    are taught they belong to some identity group and must pull down everything that America once
    represented - Christian, American, lovers of free speech, Capitalist, Western tradition and Liberal.
    When that is all gone, and we are just a bunch of hating tribes who feel "different" then America
    joins the conga line of failed states - and every American tribe suffers.

    Guns don't solve problems.

    What does a twin have to do with Rayshan Brooks being shot and killed by officer Garret Rolfe? We're talking about a Police officer shooting an innocent man. It has nothing to do with anything else. Get it?

    YOU said you shouldn't shoot someone different.
    And that's why people usually shoot someone - because they are different
    and doing things differently. The problem is worse than someone shooting
    someone "different", the problem is people teaching others that we are all
    different. And that's when the real shooting begins.
