  • Oh my god this is insanity.

    The police claim he had a gun, they claim he pointed it and that was the impetus.

    The family has not refuted this claim. Maybe they will, they haven’t yet.

    As it stands this is what we KNOW.

    Making claims one way or the other without any credible evidence is called making shit up.

    I’m not making anything up by pointing out that your claim is pulled out of the air, that’s all it is. The family hasn’t said he didn’t have a gun, the cops say he did. People in this thread do not know one way or the other so making claims is ridiculous.

  • I’m smart enough to know that there is body camera footage of the incident and the family has already seen it and I similarly know that with the climate in the USA if the footage showed no gun and nothing to support the officers beliefs then we’d already be fucking rioting.

    Making shit up without having evidence is tantamount to lying. It’s disinformation regardless of if it fits your world view.

  • I got it, you’re outraged and speculating and don’t care about knowing what happened.

    You just want to push your narrative and fit the story to that.

    You won’t find an ally of the police in me but people who project misinformation just to fit their world view are awful too

  • … so if my son was murdered by police who claimed that he was pointing a gun at them and then I saw footage that proves that u would use my words and tell the whole fucking world.

    You’re speculating that maybe they planted a gun.

    There is body camera footage that shows the event and notably family members who have watched it have not made that claim.

    Only you are making that claim.

  • For clarities sake, there is body cam footage where it alleges he points the gun at the officer while fleeing.

    Now I haven’t seen the footage that corroborates this and the footage I did see doesn’t back this statement up (nor does it exclude it, it’s from the POV of another officer)

    However the dad apparently left viewing the body cam footage with their lawyer and then went and did this.

    I’d expect the body cam footage to show anyone who isn’t a cop that he was running and had a gun in his possession and it likely doesn’t matter from the perspective of the cops if it was actually pointed at him or not.

    Basically my bet is the body cam footage corroborates whichever side of the story your want it to.

    The outcome of guns is shots fired and folks dead, unfortunately.
