Kenosha Is Burning - Topic

Shot 7 times at close range. Wasn't the original call request. Had no weapon (that i'm aware of).

Both parties should have done things differently. Only one side shot the other 7 times in the back while entering a vehicle with children.

Should have the guy complied better? of course. Could he have been going into his car for a deadly weapon - possibly but not probable.

Maybe the police should have used non lethal force - taser, pepper spray, etc.

No one deserved to die that day.

I'm generally on the side of the police in most instances.

Not really sure how you could see it differently, but i'm open to you explaining yourself..... if you can.

Do you know how laws work?
Do you know what a statute is?
No one gives a fuck about your useless opinion you clown.

it's so typical that the right is more concerned with the riots than the cause of it.

'write me a rage essay' says the kid who got so triggered by a tweet, they had to type not one but two rage replies, full of insults and idiotic narratives that have nothing to do with the truth, lol. hypocrisy at its finest...

Oh yes. More. Come on more buzz words.

dude did a dumb, copper did a dumb. comply, dont die, sue and watch ur funds multiply.

its like people think they'll get some bonus points on some imaginary scoreboard when they refuse to comply a police order. even if you're live streaming it and you get millions of views on youtube u just put your life at risk for what? 40$ of ad revenue and 15 mins of fame?

although it should be said this follows a pattern of "few cars burned, lets report the situation as a violent riot". kenosha will be fine, the property damage will cost almost nothing. its just a few right place right time photos to make it looks like Ferguson, Minneapolis, LA, etc.

Absolute chaos in Kenosha right now. Lots of fires, explosions, gunshots. One series of rapid gunfire on a stream and one person on the ground with a bullet in their head, so looks like at least one dead already.
we're only a matter of seconds/minutes removed so no confirmation on what happened or if he survived somehow ('en route to er') but witnesses said he was one of the looters at an auto shop, some young white male

multiple shootings on video in the past few minutes let alone all the gunshots being heard without knowing if its hitting anyone. Wont link graphic vids. But another shooting was a mob chasing and jumping on someone carrying a rifle (who? why?) he falls down as someone jumps him, shoots the guy on top of him, video goes wild as cameraman runs so after that all you hear is more gunshots

I cant tell from audio but either of these could be multiple people shooting at each other as gunshots are erratic and echoed

Maybe the message they're sending is not about the cause. Maybe the message being sent is: "Hey, we're destroying your town".
