quote:

Charles Kinsey, a group therapist at a Miami-area health center, went to retrieve an autistic patient who had left the premises and wandered into the street.
He did not expect to get shot.

he survived lol

quote:

Kinsey had no reason to believe the incident would turn violent as long as he complied. “I was really more worried about him [Rinaldo] than myself,” he said.

“I was thinking as long as I have my hands up… they’re not going to shoot me.

This is what I’m thinking, they’re not going to shoot me. Wow, was I wrong.” Kinsey’s account suggests compliance would not have helped.

lol

quote:

“I’m like this right here, and when he shot me, it was so surprising,” he continued.

“I thought it was a mosquito bite, and when it hit me I had my hands in the air, and I’m thinking I just got shot!

And I’m saying, ‘Sir, why did you shoot me?’ and his words to me were, ‘I don’t know.’

Cuevas said he does not yet know who the officer who shot Kinsey is. The officer has not been identified and is on administrative leave.

"Yeah, I have no idea who this officer is, but I know he's been placed on leave!" :downs:

That picture is pre-shooting, and in the moments of the shooting the only video anyone can find is edited out.

Video is pretty sfw. There's just some cops yelling and the dude being like hey I work at a group home I'm complying please don't shoot, and then it cuts to when they're arresting him.

This is probably on the cops, but why the hell did the idiots filming not show the whole thing? Now the talking point will be "Oh yeah I bet he stopped complying during the cut and reached in his pocket".

The CEO of KFC is probably in a separate loving state, as opposed to the same city.

Also, ya know one's a subsidiary of a multinational corporations and the other is a much smaller organization more akin to a small business.

Do, or Do Not.
There is no 'Try'.
To be fair; when the black guy laid down on the ground "with his hands up" he did resemble the shape of a gun.

Maybe the cop thought he was going all Transformers [Robots in Disguise] on him.

the answer is they don't have big enough guns yet, if we keep giving them bigger guns eventually it will be too inconvenient for them to shoot people

That doesn't look very scary. More like a six-foot penguin

A penguin huh? OK, try to imagine yourself in the Miami. You get your first look at this "six foot penguin" as you enter the streets. He moves like a slob, heavily, swaying from side to side. And you keep still, your arms held up, because you think that maybe he won't consider you a threat - he'll let you live if you don't move. But no, not the Miami Metro. You stare at him, and he just stares right back. And that's when the attack comes. Not from the front, but from the side,

[makes 'whoshing' sound]

from the other two cops you didn't even know were there. Because a law enforcement officer is a pack hunter, you see, he uses coordinated attack patterns and he is out in force today. And he shoots at you with this...

[he produces Glock from his pocket]

A nine millimeter standard size pistol, like a gunslinger, on his right hip. He doesn't bother to shoot you in the extremities like an Euro Cop, say... no no. He shoots you here, or here

[he lightly pushes at the kid's chest with the pistol muzzle]

Or maybe maybe on your forehead, spilling your brains. The point is, you are dead before you drop. So you know, try to show a little respect.

OK.

They're cowards who are armed and they don't know how to admit when they're wrong. So we'll never have reform.
