The text on the Youtube page indicated the perp shot the officer (I heard six shots I think) and then executed him with a point-blank shot to the back of his head.

Well, if you watch the video it is obvious that that is what happened. She shouts "taser taser taser" and then shoots him with her pistol. Then immediately says "oh shit, I shot him"

Here is the bodycam footage and press statement without Donuts commentary.

Since the start of 2017, US police have killed 4221 people in what is described as fatal police shootings. (1683 were white.) https://www.statista.com/statistics/...olice-by-race/

It seems the USA need more guns. Surely more guns will make it a safer place.

"Disproportionately more men are shot and killed by police than women!"

"Yes, because more men commit crime than women"

The sad thing is that, as tragic as this latest shooting death was, it could have been avoided if the victim simply didn't resist arrest or attempt to flee.
Same with Ashlii Babbit, who persisted with unlawful conduct even after being ordered by the Capitol Police to cease and desist.

Point is, if a cop pulls you over or warns you to stop engaging in unlawful conduct, you comply. End of story. Nothing good has ever come from resisting arrest.

I can already see this being used as an example, "See how relaxed the officer was around a WHITE man with an ASSAULT RIFLE in his car but they treat UNARMED BLACK men way worse in traffic stops. BLM!"

The media said he was White for 3 days. What a surprise.
He was a mexican drug cartel guy who had been deported 4 times. Mexican are not white. I saw the entire dash cam video after shooting him
in the head and he was down he walked over fired 3 shots into his back and 1 more into his head.
