News No Charges in Wal-Mart BB Gun Shooting - Page 14

Skyy God · 09-24-2014, 01:38 PM

Watch the video. Dude's just shopping for pet food, swinging a BB gun, and minding his own business. Then, BAM.

Apparently the Dayton PD trains their officers to murder people.

Quote:

A special grand jury called to review evidence in the fatal shooting of John Crawford III, killed by police in an Ohio Walmart while carrying a BB gun from store's shelves, decided today that no officers involved in the shooting will be indicted.

Surveillance video from Crawford's shooting—previously unavailable to the public—shows Crawford walking around the store while talking on the phone, with the BB gun at his side or on his shoulder. The disturbing video then shows an officer rushing toward Crawford with his gun drawn before shooting him.

Though the special grand jury reportedly considered charging the officers with murder, reckless homicide, or negligent homicide, WHIO reports the jury ultimately decided not to indict the officers involved in the shooting, finding their actions were justified.

Vince Pope, attorney for the officers involved in the shooting, released a statement following the decision:

"I believe the grand jury's decision, it's absolutely the right decision, that the officers acted well within their training."

Derrick Foward, president of the Dayton Unit NAACP, also released a statement:

"The Special Grand Jury in Greene County made the wrong decision. It's a sad day in the history of Dayton."

Foward added the NAACP will call for a complete investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice.

I wasn't trying to insinuate that your kid was a bad kid or anything. It's just that in my lifetime I've had interaction with police very seldom and only once outside of a traffic stop. I understand that everyone's life experiences are different, but I've never had a reason to fear the police and these recent incidents haven't made me change my thinking very much.

It wasn't civil, but it was accurate.

Ya know, I posted it and deleted it because I'm not trying to stir the pot, but I'm gonna go ahead and say it again because it's bugging me.

You guys really have NO idea what life is like for Arrow. His posting and venting about it may annoy you, but he's earned the ****ing right, and you guys should just ignore him if it bothers you that bad. Certainly talking all this shit to him and then expecting him to just slink away is ****ing ridiculous.

If you can't show some ****ing compassion, at least leave the man alone.

You don't go out to clubs, the hip downtown club scene. Private parties. Chase women at said places? Bet you did when you were 21.

Cope intermingle with the crowd these days. Way different when I was 21 when they kept their distance.

THIS! His experiences are different from yours. Just as mine are. He has a right to voice his opinion on his experiences in a civil manner. You don't like that, the ignore function still works on this site.

By being black and terrified of the police. I know for most of us, if we haven't experienced it personally it doesn't exist, but I'd like to think we're seeing this shit in action these days.

It's just my opinion, it's not some moderator mandate. So I apologize if it sounded like I'm throwing weight around because I'm not. I should've worded it differently. Y'all want to talk shit to him, well, that's this site.

I just think we are ignorant to what life is like for urban, black, Americans. JMO

JFC, I still don't like you.

.....What's scary about those dudes packing in public is that they can just say "self defense" and get off, that has been proven.

Being born black or white doesn't earn anyone anything. Is he terrified of the police because he's been assaulted by the police?

So a man calling in a report of concern to him should be locked away and neutered?

I'm going to go with a huh? here.
