She made an accusation he touched her inappropriately or something. Not nothing but also not confirmed or rape by any standards.

was there a warrant for his arrest?

and man oh man, NOW we see you play the “innocent until proven guilty” card. whenever the accused is sympathetic to liberalism, they are presumed innocent. is that how it works?

I've not read that is what occurred. Not arguing he's a great guy but not worthy of 7 shots in the back.

that’s what i saw, on CNN actually. that’s not why he got shot. he got shot for repeatedly and violently resisting the non-lethal ways the cops tried to subdue him.

the cops didn’t pull up
and shoot him without warning.

spence, do you have any doubt that he’s be alive if he just complied?

Well, he's not dead for one thing. It's most likely he wouldn't have been shot but given widespread mistrust of the police within black communities and recent events like George Floyd I can see where he could have been concerned about his safety.

Sorry, good correction. Of course he would not have been shot.

The mistrust of police is based on a false narrative, on the wildly distorted way the left reports this. Look at the data, it could not be more clear.

George Floyd was completely out of his mind, one of the medical examiners ruled he had (or may have had?) a fatal dose of fentanyl in him.

Breanna Taylor (is that her name?), that was a horrible horrible mistake by the cops. But it happens. Poice work is, by nature, occasionally life-and-death. Mistakes will happen. Not every mistake, is rooted in racism.

Most of the country disagrees with you.
