Killed for illegally camping

Recommended Posts

when uniformed, armed police tell you to drop your weapon and get on the ground, you do just that.

otherwise this may happen.

it's not rocket science

Na.. by weapon you mean a kitchen knife? the cops where armed in a way that put rambo to shame.

They don't even know to use the dog, Once they shoot a nice amount of rounds to kill the Kraken, they release the dog just to make sure he's no threat? Or just for the fun of it. Hey look at Bobby, he's eating his leg while it's still warm.

The homeless guy clearly is not well in his thoughts, he belongs to a psychiatric.

But there it goes, if you are planing to camp somewhere in the mountains, think twice.

there it goes,

There are enough ex military who are not wrapped that tight who are now on police forces,

not saying they should be carrying guns around in charge of civil order. But they are,

and many more like them in different capacities.

In some ways you need these cowboys in certain situations, somebody has to be half crazy to do certain jobs.

My point on this one is the same as it was on George Zimmerman,

IF, someone with a gun, in any sort of authoritative capacity tells you, for whatever reason to drop what you are holding, or to get on the ground, or leave an area,

or any other kind of order, that may even at the time seem unreasonable to you, just do it. You can ask questions later, report him to a higher authority, get a lawyer, even kick his "unarmed" ass at another time if that's what pleases you.

But there's nothing more dangerous than adrenalin and guns, live to tell the story.

So, if you are suffering some kind of autism that means you are dead in this kind of situation.

hey I'm not justifying this, or anything like this in any way shape or form.

that was unnecessary and wrong on all levels, I think it was obvious they could have taken him down without killing him, there was like 4 of them, and a dog.

But look at the press conference afterwards, they will get away with it, and they'll shoot your ass and get away with it too, don't think they won't.

If you know someone sick and is out there fending for themselves, maybe try to bring them in and get them some help.

Very sad..

Idk if he already had the knife out the whole time but looks to me when that German Shepard runs up on him the man gets scared and bucks up for a fight with it (shit who wouldn't) then bang bang.. Police said the guy who was calling off the dog was I'm danger? It looked The homeless man never took one step forward

Shiit picked the wrong time to butter his sandwhiches. After re-watching, this is a sad case of the police working within the law to the very extent, but that doesn't mean there actions were morally right.

The second guy fires, purely because the first guy did. Just instict. Sort of like when you see someone yawn, you yawn yourself.

The guy with the shotgun rounds should be diciplined, no need for the last 3 shots at all.

I just think these guys are acting as if this is a suicide bomber, they have obviously seen to many hollywood movies, typical 9-11/everyones a terrorist fear factor here.

American police do not take any chances - if you do not comply and they perceive you to be a potential threat then they will use lethal force and they are trained to all shoot, not just one or two of them. The saddest part is that if the dog had been injured they would get it treatment way before they got the homeless guy any.

As Shades says though - if somebody has a gun pointed at you you do as they say, no matter how in the wrong they are. The time to fight battles is through a lawyer and when you are safe, not when you have weapons pointed at you.

What a fuckin' disgrace.

yeah this is utterly disgusting, this is how police in america are going though, they will shoot you over nothing. they had flash bangs, a dog, bean bags loaded in shotguns and tazers. their is no excuse for lethal force here.

They shot him because a dead homeless man is never going to cause outcry in such a glutonous, uninvolved society like the USA. Why protect the sanctity of life when you can grease your fat fingers in chicken wings, or waddle your way into a basketball stadium?

It has a tone of eugenics to it: 'Yeah it's just a weird homeless guy with a dog and a knife so that he doesn't get raped while sleeping at night; shoot em.'

The guy shouldn't of been shot and killed...there is no justification for the police's actions in this situation, imo. The guy wasn't even facing them when they shot him. This standstill went on for 3 hours and all the police could do after 3 hours is shoot the guy? Like others have said, what a fucking disgrace.

plus this guy had a history of mental illness, he needed help(which cops are supposed to help provide) the guy screaming "booya" after he shot him is also disgusting.

Except that it's doing exactly that.

Not all Americans are fat, self-centered assholes.

Another prime example of after a person has been shot or tazed the police are yelling "stop struggling" or "put your hands out". After you've been shot half a dozen times you are not exactly in the best condition to stop wriggling around.

yeah, instead of sicking the dog on him or bean bagging him when he was alive they wait until he is dead, and then keep yelling drop the knife when the guy didnt respond to bean bag shots at point blank range, and didnt flinch when an attack dog was biting the shit out of him. i think these cops played way to much call of duty or something.

Seemingly so...they seemed way too pumped up about shooting and killing. They should be held accountable...at the very least, institutionalized.
