America, here we go again: Daunte Wright shooting: Protests near Minneapolis after police killing

[englishman abroad]

What do you think would have happened if a black man was driving the truck
I recall earlier in the thread Bellie commenting that Dante Wright was an idiot for resisting the police
Same polis; same city

Where as if your an unarmed 13 year old black boy
This is incredibly disturbing, this poor bairn didn't resist

Glock 17 gen 4. Reliable. Not too sure why he needs 3 full mags like. Who is he expecting to come across?


In situations like that you rely on muscle memory, partly why AFOs in this country dont carry two drop legs. Its a bad situation and will be seen as negligent however, thats why over here taser is on the vest and sidearm in a drop leg as theyve have risk assessed this happening and the possibility. I believe its happened before. Americans dont learn from mistakes and think what if. Their risk assessments are shocking


When you draw you dont look at the weapon unless you are in an on-ready position and down sights. You dont have time. The yellow helps you see it in peripheral vision. She has panicked here and its been fatal. Mistake but a very costly one.


Not sure of charges in terms of 2nd, 3rd etc over there but needs to be some charge.

It seems a genuine mistake. A very stupid and bad one. She must live with thought that the mistake has ended someones life. Hope she can live with that

It’s because of previous mistakes over there that we do cross draw now for side arm/Taser.

Cops have asked for belt holsters for taser above a drop leg and been refused due to this issue. Over there i thought with their firearms experience this would have been the same. Obviously not.

I didnt actually but it's a pretty simple conclusion to come to

The police as they currently operate are a waste of money and a threat to the lives of the poor, marginalised and minorities.

Well done the Latino witness - thank God his evidence won't taken with a pinch of salt because witnesses and bystanders in these neighbourhoods are nearly always BAME and therefore highly likely to be anti-police.
