Donald I, emperor of the world.

The BBC showed a blown up, slowed down video, which clearly shows Pretty being disarmed.
Then they shot him.

Republican senators have joined the outcry for a full, independent investigation.
As usual, he’s being as clear in his response as anyone who watched his Davos speech, would expect.
Meanwhile among Trump’s inner circle jerkers, it’s close ranks and keep telling it like it isn’t.

Yes, the BBC Verify short is damning even on a cursory view. But when I saw this still it still brought me up short with the plainness of the image: shot in the back at point-blank range while his hands were basically on the ground.

The outrage on here is pretty selective. It's possible to think both things are awful but some deaths are more palatable than others on naca.

Yes. Some deaths cause more outrage than others. A combination of who the victim is, who the perpetrator was and sometimes timing

Not sure what relevance this has.

Who is Phil Scott? The wording is problematic for me, seems to imply that killing protesters who are not US citizens is OK.

I saw that photo on the right this morning. If it's genuine (which I assume it is), it's pretty irrefutable evidence of murder all by itself.

As the lawyer opined, snapshot doesn't tell the whole story.

There were people screaming, whistles blowing, sirens, a scrum on the ground, weapons found and alleged misfire.

All these are part of the picture to an explanation to why an officer either saw or suspected of seeing a gun and fired his weapon.

Even if the officer was mistaken, he has a almost iron clad self defence position

There are rules to protesting in the USA. Generally you dont get in the way of officers, dont interfere in their duties.

If you do engage directly with officers in a tense heightened situation, and the officers feel threatened in any way-

THEY CAN USE DEADLY FORCE.

That is a valid settled case law defence

Only 9 counties account for nearly all riots against ICE. Democrat counties
