LAPD Shooting – “THE NEW MICHAEL BROWN”? (Graphic Video)
Can’t wait for this to be hyped for months. The shooting happens a little after the 20 second mark, just a heads up. To me, it seemed like the “perp” was reaching for the officers guns while wrestling on the ground. The officers physically reacted in a way that confirms this and if you listen closely you can almost fully hear an officer saying that “he’s going for my gun”.
I certainly don’t think it was appropriate for them to shoot the man 5 times. If these P.O.’s were better trained, that probably could have been avoided.
However, all that matters is what’s to come. The media will soon engage in a campaign of psychological warfare with the hopes of dividing the country in every way possible.
LAPD SHOOTING: THE NEW ‘MICHAEL BROWN’?
Social justice warriors pounce on incident before facts are in
by PAUL JOSEPH WATSON | MARCH 2, 2015
Despite circumstances surrounding the incident remaining unclear, the shooting of a homeless man by LAPD officers yesterday has been seized upon by some as the latest Michael Brown-style social justice campaign.
The victim, know only by his nickname ‘Africa’, was shot and killed on the city’s Skid Row after officers say he tried to grab their weapons. The incident was captured on a low quality video recording.
Witnesses said the man punched and kicked officers as they tried to arrest him, before reaching for one of their firearms.
This appears to be backed up by the audio of the incident, with officers heard to say, “drop the gun” and “he has my gun” before the fatal shots are fired.
However, just as in the Michael Brown case, other eyewitnesses contradicted this account, claiming that the officers merely chose to execute the man because he was struggling.
“He didn’t have no weapon, they just shot him,” Yolanda Young, told KTTV. “They could have just wrestled him down and took him to jail, but they shot him five times.”
