I remember Chris Cornell being upset he got pulled into Rock The Vote when it became clear it was strictly to get democrats elected.

Small town Wisconsin burned last night after yet another heinous police shooting all caught on tape...

What was it? 7 bullets in an unarmed black mans back?

Even still I’m sure there’ll be a large group of people defending this police officer and assert that ‘nothing should change.’

That shootings pretty hard to believe. Then again so was sitting on George Floyds neck for 9 minutes while he suffocated, as was Ahmaud Avery. Others as well.

Still, shooting someone in the back, at close range, who didn't seem violent or attacking the officers?   I mean, I guess wait for the police bodycam video. Fortunately, he did survive it seems.

Your kidding, right?  Cops have guns drawn and aimed at him.  He walked towards his car ignoring all commands, opened the door and reached in and you're surprised he got shot?  If that's your stance, then clearly you believe the cops have to wait until one of them gets shot to fire back.

Well that's why I said 'wait for the body cam'.  If the guy was any form of a threat, that's one thing.  However reports are he helped break up a fight among 2 women.  Now, if he broke it up, and the cops soon arrive shortly thereafter, ask him to be a witness, detain him, try to pat him down etc etc all after all he 'might have done' is break up a fight, and he gets upset and says 'Fuck this I'm out'.


Then yeah, I probably would think the cops need to be charged and are at fault. Hence, let's wait and see.

Remember, George Floyd was 'rumored to be' resisting and assaulting officers. Wasn't true.
Ahmaud Avery was 'rumored' to be a thief going thru the empty home stealing contractors equipment.  Also wasn't true.
Trevon Martin was, according to nimrod George Zimmerman, going thru a residential neighborhood stealing from cars and homes. Also not true.


The list goes on.  Just calm down francis.
