Agree, but try to think of it from a black persons point of view, their kin have been abused for generations by police.This is unfortunate but not the hill for BLM to die on.
I’ll stop short of calling the cop a hero because that implies that lethal force was the only solution. And I don’t think we should ever celebrate the death a 15yr old. But from what I’ve seen of the video there isn’t much to protest.
it’s amazing how Rittenhouse was arrested, without incident, while carrying a semiautomatic rifle.Agree, but try to think of it from a black persons point of view, their kin have been abused for generations by police.
I don't know how you stop someone from stabbing someone right at the moment of slashing without a gun.it’s amazing how Rittenhouse was arrested, without incident, while carrying a semiautomatic rifle.
yes, I obviously understand the difference, I was being hyperbolic. but one would be intellectually dishonest to ignore the various other examples of heavily armed assailants being arrested instead of shot on the spot.I don't know how you stop someone from stabbing someone right at the moment of slashing without a gun.
I don't think the two events are comparable.
The girl was in the act of stabbing.
A comparable event would be Rittenhouse didn't get shot while he was in the act of shooting people.
Not at that point.yes, I obviously understand the difference, I was being hyperbolic. but one would be intellectually dishonest to ignore the various other examples of heavily armed assailants being arrested instead of shot on the spot.
and we still need to develop more non-lethal weapons that also have stopping power.
this girl needed mental help not bullets.
You should really change your handle to Hyperbolic Whataboutism.I was being hyperbolic.
Warrior cop training and a country awash in gunz are the main culprits IMHONot at that point.
It's pretty hard to fix what that girl has.
Unarmed white people get shot too.
It's not a black problem.
It's an excessive use of force problem.
That problem has lots of variables.
I see too much emotion.
That won't mitigate the problem.
It will make it worse.
I think the cops have a lack of training.Warrior cop training and a country awash in gunz are the main culprits IMHO
Knife girl was about to use excessive force on the girl in pink. Had the cop hesitated for 0.5 seconds the pink one may have ended up dead, the knife girl would have probably been shot anyway, and the cop would be in trouble for not stopping the stabbing.It's an excessive use of force problem.

Exactly, cops are F'd either way.Knife girl was about to use excessive force on the girl in pink. Had the cop hesitated for 0.5 seconds the pink one may have ended up dead, the knife girl would have probably been shot anyway, and the cop would be in trouble for not stopping the stabbing.
Exactly, cops are F'd either way.
Might as well go out in a blaze of glory.
I don't think the cop used excessive force in that instance.
It's okay to shoot black people right before they are about stab other black people.
Lots of mentally ill people need help instead of bullets; however, when another life is in mortal danger there is no longer time to get helpand we still need to develop more non-lethal weapons that also have stopping power.
this girl needed mental help not bullets.
i guess. we need phasers so we can set them to stun.Lots of mentally ill people need help instead of bullets; however, when another life is in mortal danger there is no longer time to get help
You're better at biology than me, doesn't more stopping power automatically increase the possibility of lethality?
With the dumb bitch that thinks teenagers have knife-dance fights like West Side Story?I don't think any reasonable person agrees with this person.
