Well guys that have records wasn't threatening them and brandishing knives either. This fugger isn't exactly innocent you know. They send a dog and he stabs and kills a dog he's on murder charges anyways. Don't give a shit where my tax payer money goes but DEFINITELY don't want it on this fugger getting 3 hots and a cot for the next 20 years all over his own stupidity.

Because he is a reerun maybe? Based upon what you said they know it too.

Sorry, I thought you were serious.

I am serious... Sick of people's bullshit. Just because he's mentally ill don't make it right for him to do the shit he did. There are real people out there that have actually been brutalized by police unnecessarily.

This fugger had a knife and told them to send the dog after him so he can kill it. reeruned or not it may have been excessive but he was the instigator and deserved all 30 bullets and 46 shots.

He literally brought a knife to a gun fight and he's the victim?
GTFOH!

when this happens, what is the recourse?

THIS IS without a doubt, most obviously police brutality.The officers should have had a different method ready to go besides going the fatal route. Embarrassing.

Dang. That was like a firing squad.

Executed on the spot for being a bit unstable. What are we coming to?

tyranny-

arbitrary or unrestrained exercise of power

Wow, can't believe that guy wound up getting shot.

I actually had this come up a few months ago. My wife, her brother, and his girlfriend decided to go for a walk around 1am in the small town we lived in at the time.

They were stopped by a police officer for no reason other than it was late. My wife did not have ID on her. She was placed in the back of the cruiser. My brother in law called me, and I flew down there with her ID.

I started running my mouth about why they were stopped in the first place as they were just walking down the road. The cop told me I didn't need to have attitude about it. I told him my attitude wasn't relevant to the situation, and I had just asked a question.

He puffed his chest out. I knew immediately I could go one of two ways with this. Even though it's HIS job to deescalate situations, and treat law abiding citizens with respect, I knew I better take the lead here.

We all left within 2 minutes after I shook his hand and thanked him for his time. Regardless of anything, someone, sometime has to choose to be the adult. If a guy has a gun, tazer, nightstick, pepper spray, radio, and a badge, you better choose wisely.

I never filed a report against the guy, or anything. 4 hours of possible sensitivity training wasn't worth me being harassed by every cop in town. That was my first run in with a law enforcement officer in probably 10 years. Boy, they sure have changed...

Yep, sounds like a good reason to shoot them over 30 times.

hurr

what the ****... sick the ****in dog on him.. shoot him once or twice. 30 shots? this just proves the police can do whatever the **** they want. the town should get together and hang these cops with an audience.

the dude was definitely being a ****in moron and was waving around a knife. But we need to take action against this type of thing. If we continue to allow things liek this to happen with little more than a slap on the wrist of the officers who committed this CRIME, things will only get worse. the people of that city should have all came together and marched up to the officers homes and carried out justice. people wonder why the government shits all over us.. its cuz we let them

That's almost certainly an unlawful arrest. Unless they suspect you of committing or are about to commit a crime, the cops can't even make you divulge your name.

What state was this?

Gotta disagree. When cops tell you to 'drop the knife' it's probably a good idea to drop the knife.

The reason so many bullets were put in him is because there were 5? (don't remember) cops and someone shot and everyone followed like their training teaches. Cops are trained to act as a team and yes, it did look bad, don't disagree but I could understand why it went down the way it did.

Pack Mentality + dumbass = bad outcome
