How else is his family supposed to become millionaires?

Strange thing about sudden millionaires , they end up broke again real quickly.

Only a racist white supremacist would believe blacks aren’t helpless and should be expected to follow an officer’s orders. /s

For sure, the word not to resist arrest hasn't gotten out.

She was training the new officers who were with her.
Ironically, she appears to have needed someone training her.

Ironically her marksmanship skill training is spot on.

Well, Wright's family are showing all the proper moves to get their big payoff too.

No doubt they will get one --if Mpls has any money left over from all the other lawsuits they have been paying out. I can't imagine what their law suit insurance premiums will be after all this or even if any company will insure them.

Why, didn't happen in Minneapolis?

OOPS-----as you can probably tell I don't give much of a crap about all this stuff going on. If it was up to me I would put up a wall around the whole Twin Cities area, give EVERYBODY a gun and let mother nature take its course. Turn it back into Murderapolis like it was know as a few summers ago. Carry On

Not sure what you said there

 

[Box Ox]

Not sure what you said there

I responded to your post #38 by sarcastically ("/s") suggesting you must be a racist if you believe blacks aren't helpless and should be expected to follow an officer's orders.

I don't believe that a cop was unable to tell the difference between a taser and a loaded pistol. Aside from that, I expect we'll find out what the results of the investigation are. There is no question that she caused his death, now it's a matter of determining whether it was justified or not.

26 years of experience does not negate the stress of those situations and the fact that people makes mistakes when the adrenaline is pumping.

I just don't see the weights and feel of the weapons being close. That would set off alarms in my brain that would cause me to hesitate, and at least glance at what's in my hand.

You are suggesting that the shooting was justified? No one else is saying that it was justified. Except for a few neo Nazis that want all minorities to be gassed.

That's for the people whose job it is to investigate it to determine, and possibly a jury. I don't really understand this mentality of just believing CNN when they tell you that the shooting was criminal. That's why it is almost impossible to get an impartial jury for high profile cases. We still supposedly have a presumption of innocence as a legal standard. The arrogance of people who think they have enough information to condemn someone based on fake news reporting just doesn't jibe with my view of justice.

You were on here yesterday parroting some silly lie about an air freshener.

Pretty sure you were one of the people who bought into the lie that Jacob Blake was unarmed....

 

[DriveInDriveOut]

A person who causes the death of another...
(1) by the person's culpable negligence whereby the person creates an unreasonable risk, and consciously takes chances of causing death or great bodily harm to another

Good luck getting a conviction for that.

You Neo Nazis didn't have the same presumption of innocence for Daunte Wright.

His arrest warrant is a matter of public record.

I speak neo Nazis?
Does that make sense in your head homie?
Lay off the weed, you've gotta get up early and move boxes for massa Fred.
