What a clusterfuck.
It can go either way quite easily as to whether or not lethal force was required in this case from what I've seen.
 
But, please, let me be explicitly clear. This, more than anything else, is a result of the criminal refusing to follow even the most simplistic of directions that were given to him from the officers. I wouldn't say he deserved to die, because I truly do believe life is a very precious thing that we've been gifted with, but I fail to see what he was expecting to happen.
He outright ignored their commands, and walked around to the driver side and tried to grab something inside his car. All while they had their guns aimed at him and yelling for him to stop. He seemingly didn't give a shit, and wanted to act tough in front of his hood rat friends.
I've heard people say they should have tazed or pepper sprayed, and if it were an option, I would agree, but after watching the video it seems it wasn't. It all happened rather quickly, but I don't see how people were expecting the officers to put their guns in the holster, secure it, remove a different method of control from their belts and then use it.
This could have all been avoided had the dude who was shot not acted like a fucking asshole and just listened. To me, everything after is a direct result of that.
 
You want black lives to matter? Teach them some common sense and simple courtesy; literally almost all of their problems would vanish with the police if they did.
Now innocent people are going to have to suffer from looting, arson, violence, and stupidity because one guy wanted to pretend he was tough.

It doesn't matter if it's justified or not. From now on every time police use force against a black person, a city will burn. This will continue until it is made to stop.

The only way it will stop is when the mainstream media no longer openly support, advocate, and make excuses for it. Once it's no longer normalized as an acceptable response it will stop.
We can also say with a high amount of certainty that it will end after the election if Biden wins. The Democrats and Biden are using these people as useful idiots in order to attempt to make Trump look bad and gain votes from minority groups. If they accomplish their goal and he gets elected President then the Democrats will put an end to this shit almost immediately in order to make the claim that it was all because a Republican was in office. In addition, since they would have achieved their main goal they would no longer have a use for these protests riots and won't allow them to be used as ammo against them.

It won't stop if Biden wins: it will be put on pause while any police chiefs or officers on the ground who aren't on-board with being defunded or standing around while antifa destroys cities either are pushed out or retire and replaced with people who don't have a problem with these things.

Then if by some miracle we elect Trump 2.0 at some later date (which if Trump doesn't win I don't know how that would be possible, but let's say for the sake of argument), the burning starts up again with even stronger institutional support the next go-around.

Again, if you cannot follow the simplest instructions that a dog is expected to understand and obey, how much of a "person" are you, really ... how are you not just an ape. The word "person" has nothing to do with species membership, no matter how much the human supremacists want it to.

If that was any other species acting like that, it would have been shot, too. Fuck that ignorant nigger.
