Cops shoot and kill Hebrew in Baton Rouge.

[youandme]

Phil is wrong. The dindu had a gun in his pocket and the officers apparently had advanced knowledge of this after the 911 call if I recall. He was wrestling with them. He would have shot them if they did not act. This has happened before and resulted in a dead cop.

Shame on Phil for his mindless rant.

Can't help he's stupid.

Emotions.

Someone was going to die, in this case it was the criminal.

I seriosuly don't understand why people would resist arrest.

[The Ugly]

This. That dude's right hand was clearly free and moving.

Afraid that's not quite Tapeworm's "this."

Read it again, dummy.

[240 is Back]

Phil is quite the activist. 

What other causes has he championed?

[Royalty]

I would like to see Phil Heath punch George Zimmeran in his gullet

[woodman]

How much child support did the crying 15 year old get. Oh that's right the dindu was 25,000 behind in child support. I guess that's why he took up the stellar career of selling pirated CDs/DVDs. Living in a homeless shelter so why was Bertha saying he was the provider. Rap sheet including previous gun possesion. Bottom line, carry an illegal firearm,resist arrest'disobey police orders bad things are going to happen.

Just happened to watch the second HD video of the ‪#‎AltonSterling‬ Murder. I cannot begin to start on this topic, but I am simply going to say this. This man never pulled out a gun and was murdered in cold blood. We have literally all witnessed a true crime and these police officers need to be held accountable. I have tons of family in Baton Rouge and I cannot help but to be worried about their well being. This man simply asked the officers a question and was tackled and later killed and I couldn't help but to be emotional after watching both videos.

I also watched the video of his son breaking down, crying uncontrollably made me so angry and frustrated that this young 15 year old has lost his father due to a real act of violence.

When will this stop!!!! Its an issue of HUMAN RIGHTS and it is time that we all see this as this was a human being minding his own damn business, selling CDs at a grocery store who's owner allowed these sales to persist, only for him to be harassed and quickly killed by police officers.

Just for the record, I have met many police officers throughout my life and will not target those whom are not breaking the law, but these two guys are straight up criminals. I appreciate the real police officers do to help PROTECT AND SERVE OUR COMMUNITIES!

The list of these acts of violence are mindblowing from Sean Bell to Eric Garner to Trayvon Martin to Sandra Bland to Mike Brown and the list goes on for their being ANY CONVICTIONS for these deaths. I pray that Justice is served and that the Sterling Family can stay strong during the horrible time, draw closer to God and pray for strength and peace.

I refused to post up these videos as they were simply too graphic and honestly, made me too upset and even sick!

I am not going to go back and forth with anyone who is disrespectful about this subject matter so just save it for another person.

What Happened Is That Alton Sterling Was A Worthless Piece Of Shit Criminal. He Got What He Deserved. Karma's A Bitch!

[calfzilla]

The disgusting thing is all these social justice warriors are focusing on this filt, while 4 completely innocent black children were murdered with a knife and no one seems to care.

Mike Brown.....Bwahahahahaha

Mr. Heath should stick to being a professional drug addict, and leave it to The Revs Jesse and Al to be spokesmen for "da camoonity"

[Vince G, CSN MFT]

2nd Video is out and much clearer to see what happenned.  Officer pulled the gun out of his pocket after he was dying meaning that they had no reason to discharge their weapons.  Bad shoot as there was no just cause to discharge weapons

Cool then, case closed.

When will you be sentencing the yet-to-be-accused, your honor?

What sentencing....no prosecutor would file charges as he still had a firearm and it could be argued that he was reaching for it.  In any event, he's a fucking pedo....I don't feel sorry for him

[hardgainerj]

I don't understand the thought process where one comes to the conclusion that resisting arrest would be a better decision than not doing so.

'muh dick'

I believe he removed this from his FB.

[Dr.J]

Can't tell everyone's hand positions from this. He doesn't need to be waving the thing around, there just needs to be a fear that the gun was going to be brought into play.

Here are the 911 tapes for the call that brought them there - http://wgno.com/2016/07/06/police-release-911-calls-that-led-to-alton-sterlings-death/ .

1) Cops roll on a gun call.

2) They have prior knowledge that the suspect has the gun in pants pocket.

3) At the scene they engage suspect, suspect is combative.

4) It goes to ground, cops are on top of him, but they don't have control of his hands. Pistol is in his right pants pocket.

How quickly can you get to your pants pocket lying down? It's not that hard even if you're tussling with someone.

This was a good shoot.

It does appear this way.

[bigmc]

yeah they should have fought the three hundred pound man

in fair hand to hand combat

 

[Dr.J]

Not smart for Phil to chime in....

[Dr.J]

We were not there..  Bottom line is we do not know what the officers felt.  The suspects right arm was not controlled from what I observed.   As it was stated here before, this is not the movies, the weapon does not have to be in the suspects hand and pointed at the officers before it is declared a "clean shoot." 

Trust me, officers don't come to work and think..."boy I wanna kill someone today"  in fact quite the opposite is the truth.

Split second reaction times come to play here.  If I was that officer and I felt that suspect was going for his gun, and i feared for my life, I would of shot him before he got to it.  Rather be tried by 12 then be buried by 6.

police do not have the authority to be the judge and executioner.  

yeah they should have fought the three hundred pound man

lots of 300 pound white guys out there.  police are able to arrest them without killing them.

Anyway, this is yesterday's news.  Now we have another one in Minnesota.  Live streamed on Facebook!

https://www.buzzfeed.com/mbvd/facebook-video-appears-to-show-aftermath-of-mans-shooting-by

by the way, there aren't really any more police shootings than in years past.  Just now with cell phones, we get to see them live.  There have always been bad cops, incompetent cops, and racist cops.  And good cops have always protected them.

[goku]

He is lucky that the father of the under-aged child didn't murder him years ago.

I say that for any sex offender: white, black, yellow, brown, red

100% this.
Deserved to die, race has nothing to do with it in my eyes. paedophiles are the scum of the earth regardless of their colour.
and since he was a repeat offender the cop who killed him might just have saved another child from that scumbag.
Cop's reaction was severe but it might be completely unrelated to his race, could be that he did a quick check on him and saw his history and reacted severely because of that.
Or another crazy idea...cop might have feared for his safety when Sterling's right arm apparently got free and reached for his gun in his right pocket.
But it's hard to say, can only speculate.

[Yamcha]

His mixtape was too lit fam!

[Kwon]

Good shoot.

[drkaje]

Dude, did you watch the video? That was straight up murder. Regardless of how many kids he has, or his criminal record, he didn't deserve to be shot like that. He was under control. It was unnecessary and causes an escalation of an already sensitive issue. Plus the added negative attention by the media that profits off of this.

Don't waste the effort, Parker.

No one will care until this routinely happens to white people.

Bearing in mind cops are so bad remember not to call them when you need them.

I've already had a bad enough experience that I have concerns for my safety when I have to interact with them.  I know not all cops are bad.  But I also know any one that I meet could be.

[USMC 1371]

Well the video already shows that he was slammed on the car and down on the ground in a prone position with the officer's knee on his back.  At that point and time, he was of no threat and even with a weapon, he was definitely not in a position to shoot it.  It looks bad.


Officers won't be charged most likely as I'm sure there will be a "self defense" argument but it will go down the line with other shootings

No, he his a threat until he is handcuffed and disarmed.
