bullets13 Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 It's amazing to me how many people are legitimately upset that a police officer shot a person who was actively trying to murder two other people.

tvc184 Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 Looking at the Facebook comments are either hilarious or sad according to how you look at it. Comments such as, the officer should have tried to talk her down. In the middle of a knife swing? Or, she called 911 so you can’t shoot her. I could list about 100 more examples but that is stupidity at its finest. But I know that people like to play the what if game. So what if it was a white female try to stab A black female? If the officer did nothing, what would the narrative be? Here is my opinion only going to Texas law. 1. it does not matter who called 911. 2. There is no way for the officer to know who made the call or any other circumstances such as bullying (which doesn’t justify stabbing) before his arrival. 3. Presented with these circumstances, there is simply no time for de-escalation or talking anyone down as has been suggested. The person is in the middle of an attack. 4. Under Texas law, any person could have shot and killed the girl with the knife in her hand. All that is required to protect another person, even a person that is not known to you, is a reasonable belief that had you been in the same situation, deadly force would have been justified. So a person can put themselves in the position of the girl against the car who is trying to fend off the knife attack. 5. Age has no relevance in the justified use of deadly force. 6. I see no way anyone can say the officer made a mistake looking at the facts that he saw however, even if the officer might have been technically wrong if some people‘s opinion, it would still be justified under the law. The Texas law on self-defense (for anyone) or the use of force by police officer, is a reasonable belief. 7. The United States Supreme Court in Graham v. Connor said that in viewing force by a police officer, you must place yourself in the position of that officer having to make a split second decision. In Graham the officers used force against a guy who they believe may have just committed an armed robbery and was resisting. As it turned out the person was completely innocent and was having a diabetic crisis. A UNANIMOUS Supreme Court found that the officers use of force was justified even against the innocent person because they had a reason to believe that he was resisting arrest from an armed robbery. They had no way of knowing that he was going into insulin shock and actually needed treatment. In that ruling the Supreme Court said that you have to look through the eyes of the officer who had to make a split second decision and not one made several months later in a judge’s chambers when there is time to look at all the facts. That is why if a person shoots a man in self defense coming at him with a gun and it later turns out that the gun was a toy, it is still justified. The facts are that the person using self-defense was in no danger but there was a reasonable belief of danger when presented with the situation. 8. Also under Texas law, if you claim self-defense or defense of another person, you do not have to prove that self-defense was needed. The state has to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the self-defense or defense of another was not needed.

Hagar Posted April 22, 2021 Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 I’ve watched the body cam video several times. I wonder about the girl getting kicked by the man right at the start. Ironically (or not), no News Media has mentioned it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The officer made the right decision. I am impressed with his accuracy and precision. Most people that I have encountered that are mad do not know the full story. They think she was in her yard holding the knife in her hand, and the cop jumped out and killed her. When they see the video, most understand. I am glad that the cop had his dashcam on. The deceased family was telling a different version of events. SmashMouth, Hagar, Ty Cobb and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hagar Posted April 22, 2021 Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 You have to wonder, if it had been a white girl going to stab a black girl & the Police killed her - would that be okay with Lebron? The guy has an IQ of a gnat. And no reaction by Twitter. That outfit is run by people with communist mentality. I’d like to shove the “hammer & sickle” where the sun don’t shine.

Put a knife in your and come at someone aggressively and “you ll be next.” He s a product of his upbringing. he s been put upon a pedistool and worshiped because he can put a ball into a basket. Someone with as big of a following could influence others to do good (a more worthy cause)but he decides to use racism for evil. What an indoctrinated pawn.

This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up Sixteen year old kid with an airsoft gun shot and killed by the police in Maryland. Why is there no coverage, outrage and protests? Both of these shootings happened during the last month. No outcry, no protest, nothing. The powers that be in the media and on the left don't want blacks and whites to get along, period. I guess the only question is whether or not the coming race war will be worth the votes, views, and likes for which they're pimping themselves.

I'm sure that he, like most, had bad information when they started assassinating the character of this policeman. But, given the time and opportunity to make a correction, Lebron neither apologized to the officer he'd wronged or admitted that he'd made a mistake at all. Instead he gave this garbage... What's he still so angry about? What does he mean by "may justice prevail?" Instead of admitting that he messed up, he whines about "i was just angry and everybody else "used my words to create more racism." No Lebron, your words come from a place of racism. It's a good thing he can dribble a basketball... because otherwise he's just a piece of crap. ANGER does any of us any good and that includes myself!
