Black cop shoots the black homeless guy, doubt we here much else about it. Like a shooting in the projects here several years ago, black guy was chasing his wife across the parking lot with a knife when the cops rolled up, black cop jumps out and shoots him just as the perp catches up to the wife and stabs her. First words out of everyone's' mouths were "Thank god it was (insert black cop's name) that shot him!" View Quote On that note. Had a cop tell me that the whites try very hard to get black cops to put hands on other blacks. One guy on something was fighting people and ripped off all his clothes. The iPhone's all came out of the projects when the white cops were there and had to wait till a black cop showed. Me, phones come out and they give me any shit. I get back in the car and let them deal with their problem the way they feel fit. |

Pretty fucking hard to just "back up" when someone has a firm grip on your gun/ duty belt....

It's a part of Los Angeles everybody who has never been in a big city should see, but most avoid like the plague, which is not a bad idea. The residents are almost all poly-substance abusers, added to that are probably several levels of mental illness. All the residents are armed and dangerous, when you are at the bottom of every food chain, socio-economic chain imaginable, every possible vermin with two legs or more consider them their rightful prey. |

Do homeless people refer to their cell as their "home phone"? lol We had a Captain come to roll call and asked if we knew the addresses of any homeless people. He also said he would like to "condemn" us for doing a fine job. He eventually made assistant chief. Oh, almost forgot, he climbed up on his desk and stuck his head in a ceiling fan once. |

It looked liked the black cop thought he took his gun. He said he has my gun then just after the shooting he looks like he's trying to find it.

Wtf is going on in here? I have no idea why people think this is funny or controversial. And fights here get started over stuff. It's as bad here as some of the places I've worked with mostly middle aged women.

It happened pretty quick but all I saw was an escalation of reactionary force. Fighting with a cop is one thing, grabbing ANYBODY'S gun will get you deaded. ETA: Not only good shoot but the cop needs a raise and his own personal parking space by the front door of the precinct. |

I saw the gun grab, and that black cop could have shot, it looks like his first shot would have been 1 handed.
I think the white guy holstering his gun might have shot as well. When the camera swings around after the shots you can see him holstering his gun. |

Witnesses at the scene identified the victim by his street name, "Africa”, and gave conflicting accounts of what they saw.
Dennis Horne, 29, said Africa had been fighting with someone else in his tent when police arrived. When Africa refused to comply with a police order to come out of the tent, officers used the Taser on him and dragged him out, Horne said. The officers tackled Africa to the ground, where he continued to fight, which led to the fatal shooting, according to Horne. "It's sad ,” Horne said. "There's no justification to take somebody's life.” Africa wins aga...wait, not this time. |

What I saw was a couple of assholes looking to scrap with the cops. Shithead #1 (male) swings wildly with his fist and then shithead #2 (female?) grabbed an officer's unsecured nightstick off the sidewalk and postured/moved like there was intent to use it against the police. Two cops secure the nightstick and the woman, meanwhile roundhouse punch guy is fighting on the ground with the other cops. Shithead #1 grabbed a cop's gun. "Drop the gun! Drop the gun! He's got my gun!" *Bang*....*Bang Bang Bang*. Shithead #1 is no longer a threat to anybody and shithead #2 is cuffed. Then Samuel Jackson begins his commentary.....
Of course, this video is just one angle and one slice of the incident time wise, but what else could the cops do? The guy obviously wasn't stable and had already assaulted and battered people...can't have that shithead risking or taking lives with a firearm. Grappling, punching and using a TASER had all failed to stop the shithead. What's left? I'm no fan of the police state or the trampling of the law and of people's rights we're dealing with theses days, but damn, it's a shitty time to be a cop in America. |
