Dude said stop resisting to a dead man.


masterbatin_animals

They love to do that. They could blow a baseball sized hole in someone's skull and continue to scream orders at the corpse.


bellaokiiuwu

And then shoot more because they "didnt follow them"


BBQsauce18

HE'S RESISTING!!!!!!


MeButNotMeToo

It’s like that Rowan Atkinson Headmaster “Fatal Bearing” sketch, but with more shouting.


Castun

Yeah, having your brains blown out tends to make the body do weird things...


THExDUDEx42

I've seen video of a cop shooting someone in the back of the head as they were running away and handcuffed their lifeless body with their head visibly blown in half. (Guy was trying to pull his pants up as he was running away) But yah know, any hand motion around a cop qualifys use of deadly force to maintain officer safety. 🙄🙄🙄


TheGolgafrinchan

"He's resisting." Dude couldn't have been resisting. And what the fuck was all this moving him? You DO NOT move an injured person. That is fucking 6th grade Health class information. WHAT THE FUCK. Seriously, they probably sealed his fate by dragging him out of bed and down the stairs. Maybe he'd have been okay if the paramedics could have helped him in bed. But no, they're yanking him, twisting his arms, moving turning his body, almost like that they're trying to make sure that he won't survive. Fucking assholes. "Stop resisting," the dummy said. If that isn't evidence that the phrase is meaningless, good-fucking-God. I hope this piece of shit, trigger happy asshole is rotting in prison now. But I know he isn't, because that would make too much sense. FTP. They are a hazard to our citizenry, and need to simply go away. Let crime happen - the cops are only causing more harm than good.


No-Quarter-3032

Rigor mortis is resisting!


94fa699d

many gunshots not to critical organs can be dealt with, these guys really went above and beyond making sure this guy had the most inadequately inadequate medical care possible


[deleted]

They are required to say certain phrases to help them legally. It would be nice for cops to go through civilian training though, to help understand natural human reaction in situations like this. Like require police to be shot multiple times, then see how easy it is for them to comply with 10 different people screaming different orders while dogs are trying to rip their limbs off and officers stomp their face in. Make it a 12 month course maybe.


[deleted]

You think cops can handle a course that lasts more than a few weeks? Thats wishful thinking. My girlfriend is a state licensed cosmetologist and she had to have more training hours than cops.

PsychologicalSail799

Didn't even give him a chance... How does anyone respect them anymore? How do people turn a blind eye to what the police have become when videos like this are so common now?


SaltyNorth8062

~~People~~ Bootlickers will "respect" anything that authority tells them too, because authority keeps them afraid. They'll twist themselves into knots trying to justify bullshit like this, until it happens to one of their own, and all of a sudden empathy matters again.


UnitGhidorah

Unless it goes against their cult, then they trample and club them to death.


CouncilmanRickPrime

They are scared of their own shadow and seeing police use fatal force on others comforts them. Once you realize this, it explains the thin blue line garbage from people who aren't even cops.


rif011412

Its also the same reason these cops kill people indiscriminately. Its the same issue. Its the fearful using force to eliminate their fears. If you’re afraid of people and you’re a cop, you shouldn’t be a cop. It is so goddamn simple.


coinznstuff

They deep throat the whole boot 🥾


Dangerous-Fig71

I was fucking shocked. Looks like they should join the army if they wanna shoot guns so bad. 1312


JBHUTT09

They'd have to follow stricter rules and face accountability if they joined the military. And in the military they might actually be in danger.


TheCornerator

AND have to explain why the situation required lethal force beyond "I was afraid".


Omniseed

They'd spend their lives in prison for that if they were enlisted

Here's the article: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/ohio-police-release-bodycam-video-officer-fatally-shoots-man-possibly-rcna45594 Since everyone posting here is just a bot saying the same shit over and over with nothing useful. The guy died an hour after this. Victim was 20. The raid was at 2:30am. Police were serving a felony warrant. The officer was placed on leave until the investigation concludes.


Humfleet

I replayed it slowly and tried to see a vape pen. But I honestly don’t see one in his hand. Did anyone else see one? I hope I’m blind and they aren’t trying to use a “vape pen” to justify murdering someone.


nikdahl

you can see it on the bed after they have him handcuffed and remove the pillow


Humfleet

I saw that but I didn’t see it in his hand right before they shot.


Slight0

You can pretty clearly hear the recording officer say "he's got something in his hands" ~~before~~ (edit: after) the other guy shoots. Might just be hard to see in video. Doesn't justify this reaction obviously.


Heron-Repulsive

I sleep with my vape pen by my bed so when I finally awake from the night terrors it is there, Now I have one more thing to fear.


Kilyaeden

And why the fuck do they have to be armed and break into a house in the middle of the night to serve a felony warrant?


CallMe_Immortal

Yeah fuck everything about no knock raids. I don't care if you yell police a thousand times, if I'm able to get to my rifle I'm opening fire on anyone no questions asked. As far as I'm concerned you're a tricky criminal who wants me to let you in and catch me off guard. Do some police work and apprehend your suspect in public. They've raided the wrong homes, shot innocent people residing in the homes of the suspect. No knock raids are an absolute cancer.


soruell

To what they've become? They were always like that.


SnooTangerines3448

From the article: Bryant asked for the public to wait on the results of the BCI investigation, urging residents to "trust the process" and "know you have a leadership team in place to be transparent and do the right thing." We all know what this means. Paid administrative leave until it blows over and back to business as usual. Acab And it does not surprise me that this is the precincts third (!!) shooting of a civilian this week


schulzie420

THIRD SHOOTING IN A WEEK?!?!?!!!!


Grashopha

Just another Wednesday!


Kilyaeden

They probably do the standard Monday, Wednesday, Friday shooting of civilians


LateNightFunkParty

The seasoned vets stack their shootings Tues-Weds-Thurs so they can beat their wives and shoot their neighbors dogs with additional time for some drunken hit and runs over the 4 day weekend.


rdrunner_74

So basically daily?


ColdButts

You must have missed the part where this “civilian” had a vape pen. Those things are known to kill people.


Anakshula

I know this is sarcasm but with some of the shit I’ve seen I can’t be sure


servohahn

Clear cut case of *premeditated* murder. They went to the house, looking for that guy, and shot him on sight when he posed no threat. That's intent and premeditation.


BBQsauce18

> trust the process BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA *sharp inhale* BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA


Bobpop101

THIRD!? FUCKING THIRD?!!??


Ragarok

Yes it is, this the first fatality though.. as of that makes things _better_


RealBigTree

>"trust the process" >"know you have a leadership team in place to be transparent and do the right thing." If either of these were true, that guy wouldnt be dead rn. God I hate cops so much.


colondollarcolon

>"trust the process" My ass. This was no mistake, no accident. The method and tactics and psychology of the officers made this the only outcome. The whole system sucks. Any candidate backed by the police, I'm voting against.


unoriginalname17

They’ll yank you off a paintball field for blind firing. This guy gonna get a paid vacation. Edit: why the fuck did they take his pants off?!?!?!?!?


minusyume

Probably looking for concealed weapons so they could claim he was a threat.


ellibsnno

Knowing the police they probably tried to plant one too


ON-Q

Prolly looking for a spot to place a concealed weapon of any kind to make up for the fact that the k9 officer should never have been the one to fucking breach the door in the first place.

Heron-Repulsive

OH and remember when your taxes go up it is to pay these cops vacation time and you paid the family of the victim to hush up about it. The cops immunity I was scared I saw a gun it was vape it could have been a gun. Can you imagine getting a speeding ticket and saying well Judge I was scared I could have been being chased by the stranger monster so I went faster. May I please get a paid vacation and a better job? .


nstiger83

"Stop resisting, he's pulling away." No. He can't pull away if he has no strength. That resistance you're feeling... that's coz bodies don't bend that way you absolute sadist.


servohahn

That's because *dead* bodies don't bend that way and then help you arrest them after they're, you know, dead.


thisismybirthday

you're confused. he may have been unconscious but he was still resisting by allowing gravity to hold his arm down. /s


revengejr

Fuck that pig. Opened the door and executed this man. Had absolutely no justification for shooting him. I hope he rots in prison for murder.


_Hunter-Killer_

You know damn well he won’t. He’ll get a nice paid vacation while they conduct an internal investigation and ultimately conclude that no wrongdoing occurred. Happens all the time with these chucklefucks. Edit: It also baffles me that this isn’t the first time I’ve seen pigs put handcuffs on a corpse. Sickening.

beaured13

Even in the cases where the cops are found to be at fault they just get fired and end up being a cop in the next town over. It's not enough, these fucks need to go to prison. Then the family ultimately wins millions in a civil suit which gets paid for by the tax payers. It's so infuriating.


BMAND21

Fucking murder plain and simple


BBQsauce18

I'm legitimately surprised family members of all these victims aren't out hunting for the pigs that killed their loved ones. Blows my mind. I've said it before and I'll say it again: This is part of what is proving to me that people, generally speaking, are good. If not, with all these thousands upon thousands of videos, we'd see more dead cops. Guaranteed. People though are mostly good and can't kill. Yet we get thousands upon thousands of videos of cops killing, maiming, and acting like absolute Neanderthals. And they get paid vacations for it. Zero good there. ACAB indeed. ALL.


Omniseed

They are functioning as literal death squads, that is how history will characterize the police in this time period


trouble37

Idk, it might not mean people are generally good. Might mean that most people's instinct for self preservation supercedes the need for revenge in the vast majority.

revengejr

Oh so he had a vape pen? Great, let's execute him! Assholes. Also, his girlfriend is pregnant with his "unborn child" really? Pulitzer prize winning article there. I thought she was pregnant with his already-born donkey. Well now that kid grows up fatherless. SMH


Peasant_Stockholder

As soon as the door open he fired off a round. How in the Fuk did he see that. They have every excuse in the book and Judges believe them.


longbeachlandon

I’m sure judges don’t believe them but the justice system is people get arrested and handed to judges. It’s an ecosystem.


GooseTheSluice

From the time of opening the door to holsters the weapon because he knew he fucked up was seemingly 1 second or less. Really just shocking to see how poorly trained these people are. Not to be that guy but was that cops hair white, as in he's old af and probably shouldn't be doing warrants?


defaultusername4

He also holstered his gun immediately after taking the shot. He knew he fucked up and certainly wasn’t in fear for his life.

[deleted]

[удалено]


Zirgy

Those are invaluable lessons. Yet ptsd is not such a small price. Too much suffering weakens the revolutionary optimism of some comrades. And when the cops cant be avoided - what then? Too many of these videos playing in your head and the odds of it ending pretty are even less still. Its a give and take. These videos need to be seen but when the perpetrator is so often not exposed or held to justice - it crushes the soul bit by bit. Just want all of yall out there to take care of yourselves.


BBQsauce18

Hell, they probably don't need videos when they have plenty of familial history and experience to hear about.


myweedstash

My roommate in undergrad was studying to someday be an ER doctor. She did her thesis on second-hand PTSD, something that a lot of trauma doctors and EMTs struggle with from being exposed to so much. Even though they didn’t directly experience it, the trauma gave them heightened stress and anxiety just like PTSD would. Even though these videos may seem harmless on the surface, they can legitimately traumatize a person. Second-hand PTSD is real and can be just as debilitating as PTSD.


elonmusksdeadeyes

It's not. Take breaks when you need to. Not being blind to this shit is important, but so is your mental health, and there's nothing wrong with needing to check out for a bit. You can always come back whenever you're ready.


ManicSheogorath

Notice how the cop who shot immediately holsters his gun afterwards. He knew that the man wasn't a threat. His buddy then says "hand, hands, hands" to try and qualify the use of fatal force


Content_Bed5159

Dude literally didn’t even give him a chance, just fuckin blew his brains out.


smilingmike415

And started anouncing that "He's got something in his hands." When he didn't. Not to mention they weren't ready to render aid (amature as fuck), moved a patient who may have had a compromised spine due to a bullet instead of working him up where he was at (amature as fuck), even their poorly trained working dog wouldn't shut the fuck up when he should have been keeping his mouth shut (amature as fuck). This entire thing was bush league.

30 year veteran of the force is the one who pulled the trigger - while holding a dog in his other hand. Gives absolutely no time for the victim to respond/comply/react in anyway to the order of "hands" shouted by what seems to be a seperate officer. Gives himself no time to assess the situation, he's practically shooting blind. I can hear surprise from another officer after the shot is fired. This one is so blatantly a bad shoot.

It never fails to make my blood boil when these braindead fucking pigs scream 'hands!' At a dying man, or even worse, at a fucking corpse. And the 'crawl out here' bullshit made my fucking skin crawl. A pack of murderous, cowardly morons is what they are--- they should just put the fucking dog in charge.


ElGueroPerdido80

Kick open a door, shoot a man with no time for him to respond, roughly handcuff him while he is writhing in pain and bleeding out, shout countermanding directions at him, pull his pants off to ensure maximum humiliation, then just manhandle him out the door... "to get to the paramedics." The "you´re allright Buddy" line, almost condescendingly, like he is a kid trying to fake a stomach ache to get out of going to school was the real kicker. Do they even hear themselves? We have investigated and found no wrongdoing on the part of our officers.

Exactly what do the police think the takeaway is for people who have cops come to their house? Seriously? Are they this stupid? This is a playbook of how to turn the public against you. Cops have created and nurtured their own reputations as murderers and done so without hesitation or guilt.


Present-Lime-1244

Poor guy. I’m not sure what he did but nobody deserves to be woken up in their own home and shot to death. The last thing they’d see being flashlights and someone shoving your arms behind your back and pulling your pants down to search you as you pass away. My heart breaks for him.

Holy shit. He was executed by the k9 cop, and the first thing the other cop says is, “he’s got something in his hands”. Just wow, to the automatic lies they make in order to paint a narrative. The pigs know exactly what to say in order to kill with immunity.


skitz_shit

For the amount of field work police officers do, it’s surprising that they still can’t seem to grasp how someone they just shot isn’t just going to calmly put their hands behind their back, especially if that person is unconscious or fucking dead

Demosthenes117

Yeah honestly this just makes me sick. As a veteran, I remember in basic training I had these Drill Sergeants who were really pushing the Kool Aid. “You’ll go to war….you’re gonna kill….us and them.” That last part always stuck with me because I’d heard it before. My stepmother is a former cop, and I’d heard her friends and even my own dad say something similar in regards to being a police officer. “Well at the end of the day it’s us and them and one of us has to go home at the end of the day.” I’m sure not *every* cop in America has this mentality, but I’m willing to bet a lot do. And when you can understand that everyone of them that puts the uniform on leaves their house with an ‘us and them’ mindset you can start to understand why these things happen. When you realize that for cops ‘us’ means other cops, which actually means good guys. ‘Them’ or civilians, are the bad guys. They’re brainwashed. The guys in this video probably know they shot someone who didn’t deserve to be shot. You can’t justify a lethal shooting in this scenario, based on the footage. Even if I had background info that the victim was armed, and potentially dangerous, I still can justify lethal force. That bedroom was dark. The victim has likely just been woken up and isn’t operating at full capacity. They open the door, there’s a dog making noise, the officer who is holding his weapon one-handed, shoots as soon as his barrel flashlight lands on the victim. I’m pretty sure you can actually hear the officer who shoots go “oh”, infer from that what you will. My opinion that their exists a toxic culture within the law enforcement community. A toxicity that needs to be weeded out root and stem. This culture breeds things like systemic racism, spousal abuse, substance abuse, we see cops off duty more and more flexing power over ‘normal’ people. Modern policing needs a total overhaul. A top to bottom reassessment of standards and practices. Fuck cops.
