They also heard testimony from the dude who left the room like 3 minutes earlier. He said he knew exactly why the cops were there; Shaver was being a tool with a pellet gun that looked like a sniper rifle.

Being a tool could be a descriptor of his behavior with the air rifle.
That's not a justification for his execution of course.
I hope that officer eats ramen and ketchup for the rest of his life.

When I was 19, I was dumb and went shooting in the woods with a friend in suburban New England rather than go to a range.

Someone heard our shots, called the police and said they heard machine gun fire (we were shooting K-98's :lol:). Cops showed up, snuck up behind us and then told us to put our rifles on the ground and then to sit down with our hands on our head.

We were fortunate in that we took our ear pro off as we heard rustling and just stood there rather than investigate the noise with rifles in hand. No one got hurt but had they lit either of us up, it'd likely have been ruled justifiable because we were both holding rifles.

This dude was on the ground, unarmed, and they still loving shot him. Yeah, he made a mistake pulling out his pellet gun, but he didn't deserve to die over it. That cop hosed up and I hope the family gets justice in a civil suit at the very least.

Since there was a paragraph break and Shake was not the lethal one (nor fat) here I thought the second paragraph was about the cop who was described as fat a few posts up.

WAR CRIME SYNDICAT posted:

Just imagine being a juror if that's the case. You go based off of the defense that he appeared to reach for a weapon, and you reach a not guilty verdict, then the video is released online and holy poo poo you just let a murderer walk.

Again, they're putting people who are deeply sympathetic to cops on the jury. They won't lose any sleep over it.

Hate to interrupt the copchat, but there's trouble a brewin' in Gaza

quote:

Hundreds of Palestinians clashed with Israeli forces in the West Bank and Gaza on Friday in protests which were part of a so-called "Day of Rage" over U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. Dozens were wounded in skirmishes, and at least one Palestinian was killed in Gaza, according to the French news agency AFP.

Demonstrators were furious with the United States for, in their view, unilaterally siding with Israel, CBS News correspondent Seth Doane reports.

Bracing for violence, hundreds of additional Israeli security forces were deployed early Friday morning, while the faithful of all ages, including young men, were allowed into the al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem's Old City. One of the holiest sites for Muslims, the mosque is at the heart of the controversy over President Trump's decision, Doane reports.

Peacekeepers attached to the MONUSCO mission, which is the largest peacekeeping force in the world. The dead were mostly Tanzanian.

It’s been a bad year to be a peacekeeper. In Central African Republic, a bunch of them have gotten killed in recent months, then there was the disaster in South Sudan last year...
