Surprising thing is so much US public money is spent on stab and bullet proof vests, tasers and batons but the US police still shoot. It's obvious they have a policy of shoot to kill anyone who doesn't look like them. They first f*ck them with drugs and poverty and then put them down like animals.

Black officers do shoot black people and white officers do shoot white people.

..and some almost get killed when holding just a taser...

They are only trigger-happy in high crime areas...usually inner cities or high crime poor towns where troublemakers abound. Go outside these areas and it's a different story. They aren't trigger happy in a suburb where people don't even close their garage doors at night.

A Chinese man in the suburbs can be shot on his own property then framed using Asian kung fu stereotypes. The officers who shot him later went on to be richly rewarded.

Well jumping around drunkenly screaming with a long wooden rod at 2am to the point his neighbors are calling the cops wasn't helping.

Then he does the same thing as Walter Wallace and runs towards the officers with a raised weapon. Same result.

That's what the cop claimed, while 4 witnesses contradicted the claim. yet somehow this is not perjury.

Shooting legs is very hard, and tasers are not guaranteed. In fact in some cases on drugs they will charge through and could kill you.

Really !!! then they should include extensive range practice in police training schedule.

Chaos in Philly | Fatal police shooting of armed black man prompts riots and looting

Riots and looting engulfed Philadelphia on Monday night following the fatal shooting of Walter Wallace Jr, a 27-year-old black man, by two police officers. According to the cops, the man was armed with a knife.

Tensions rose as the night wore on. The initially peaceful protest turned into a full-blown riot the moment police intervened. Rioters took up arms against officers, hurling projectiles, torching patrol vehicles, and even chasing them through city streets. In one incident a speeding truck hit an officer who was holding a line in a riot-hit West Philly neighborhood.

Heavy clashes between BLM activists and local law enforcement resulted in a higher-than-usual number of casualties. Local police reported that 30 of its officers were injured over the course of the night. Several businesses were looted, and more than 30 people were arrested on charges including looting, rioting, and assaulting officers.

They contradicted his claim that Kao got within 3 feet of him while running with the wooden rod over his head to whack him. They said it was more like 10. Kao gets a Darwin Award anyway.

It isn't recommended in dense urban environments to shoot at moving legs. Police do torso shots to minimize stray bullets.

Incompetence or what I don't know but its not difficult to incapacitate a person once you are more than one person and the charging person is carrying a weapon which he cannot use without reaching in physical contact range. Still they chose shoot to kill. Secondly there is hell of difference between a dog and 6 foot male human and off course human provides you a much bigger, thicker and less maneuverable target.

our police don't show up, if they do they will shot and kill depends on who is paying them more

Damn, this is how it is in Nigeria.

But we must remember this saying when it comes to US and its international reputation and its police - "to whom much is given, much is expected"...US is 1st world, with 3rd world mentality..oh well..

In fact in some cases on drugs they will charge through and could kill you.

this sounds like a good excuse for police to waste lives of citizens valued as less worthy.

Socialism is comign to AMerica soon...because the status quo is unsustainable...why u think SO many have come out to vote?? I believe AMericans only come out in this large a number FOR CHANGE...

That's what the cop claimed, while 4 witnesses contradicted the claim. yet somehow this is not perjury.

US police have been lying ALOT...its technology that exposed them, from body cams, to civilian videos....its just harder to hide the truth these days!

Even experienced shooters don't aim for legs, it is much too hard. The goal of shooting in the first place is to end the threat, if you decide to risk the safety of others its on you if you die.

Notice how little Western media is covering this uprising. The West has now realised that they are being challenged internally and externally like never before.
