So what?  Blake admitted that he had a knife to the cops.

If so, why did the officer, not observe the infamous 21ft rule, when confronting someone armed with a knife?   Video, of the shooting, clearly shows that officer walked right behind Blake, to this car.  Did he forget his training or did he have the intent, to unload his service pistol, into Blake, at point blank range?

The 21 foot rule is for an unaware person with a gun in the holster.  The cops had their guns out and were ready so they could be closer .  The justification for the shooting is going to depend on if Blake had a knife in his hands outside the car or if it was a set of keys.

If Blake didn't have a knife in his hands, the cops should've rushed him.  They had enough cops there to bring him down.  This would've prevented the shooting later.

"Infamous 21 foot rule"?  So many misconceptions or misunderstandings of that "rule".  IMO it's taken out of context more often than not.  I'm not saying that I'm an expert, but I've had discussions and training with folks that were around when folks like Sgt Tueller's principle and "danger zone" started becoming popular.

That's the point Zippz.

The cops did have their weapons drawn and the officer, who shot Blake, willfully moved, into knife wielding range.

My question, is to do what?  Pull Blake out, of his car, knowing the risks of being potentially stabbed or did he accepted those risks, to unload his pistol, into Blake's back?

The siege ended only after Queen Liliuokalani was compelled by a marine officer to tell the people to go home.  She did so because she did not want to see further bloodshed and believed...

Sounds like a lot of Democratic governors at the moment who also refuse to put down violent insurrections are following a well-worn historical path of failure and defeat.

Cop probably thought Blake had a gun in the cab.  7 rounds in the back sounds excessive.

His actions will only put a negative light on firearms owners and militias in general.

To be fair, any action puts a negative light.

So guy who got shot in the head is seen throwing what looks like something lit on fire at Kyle as Kyle was running away from him.  He than still chased Kyle.  Guy is a convicted pedophile.

Skateboarder has multiple domestic violence history.  So he is no saint either

Bicep blown half off guy is a felon for burglary and a bunch of other misdemeanors.  So he wasn't supposed to have that Glock he had.

While Kyle was on the ground, there was another guy who had his hands up about 3 feet away from him.  Kyle did not shoot. This will help his defense case because he only engaged the threats (getting hit with a skate board and guy with a Glock)

Nick Sandmans attorney is offering his services (that's the MAGA hat kid who sued the fake news and they settled for X amount)

There is a vid of Kyle giving an interview prior to the shootings. He stated he was there to protect the businesses and showed his med bag and stated also render medical aid to anyone who requires it

So in all, charges were very quick to be pressed against Kyle. 100% political reasons.  How long did charges take for any of the Chaz killings? Go Fund Me has taken down the account for him. But Fundly has 1 going. But that too was taken down.  DNC trying to screw him.

People posted his families address as well and threats are being made against his mother.  The fake news by the next morning painted Kyle as a vigilante and militia.

Unfortunately for the cop, Blake possessed no firearm, in his car.

So, we have a cop, who put himself and potentially his fellow officers, at risk, by following too closely, as Blake was attempting, to enter his vehicle, and then unloading 7 shots, of his service pistol, into Blake's back, at point blank range.

I fail to see what other circumstance could explain the officer moving that close to Blake and then justify his shooting of Blake, in front, of his own kids, who were in the backseat, of his car.

Kid got really close to dying

Like most good cops, who are not murderous psychopaths he probably was risking his life because the last thing he wanted to do was kill that dude. If you watch he was grabbing the guys shirt, clearly to prevent him from getting in the car. The cop has no idea What he’s reaching for in the car. I think it’s safe to assume that when someone has guns drawn on them by cops they probably should not be reaching into anything. Doesn’t matter if no gun was found.

Also it’s funny you bring up the children as if it’s the police responsibility and not the dumbass fathers responsibility to not walk towards his kids when guns are drawn on him.

You can blame the usual anti-Hawaiians and the permatroll for that.

"anti-Hawaiian" ?

Kyle Rittenhouse and Jake Blake were not Hawaiians...or were they?

When I saw the bicep memes, first thing that came to mind is "He's not going to be doing that again". . .

I forget which movie that came from, but best I recall context was a snipes were shooting at a group and got "dealt with". 

I finally watched the video and the guy is screaming "MEDIC!".  I'm not sure what I would be saying in that moment, but I'm pretty sure it would be a LOT of swearing.

Interesting how he screamed medic. Like there is 1 on site because they planned on needing one.  Also guess his hat that said "paramedic" on it was like those FBI hats (From Big Island).

Not sure which side the guy who came with the TQ is on. But if he wasn't with Antifa, I would not have given up my TQ.  Possible he didn't see what happened too.

Risking his life for what again?

I agree.  But the shoot first and ask questions later defense does not jive in this case.

Also it’s funny you bring up the children as if it’s the police responsibility and not the dumbass fathers responsibility to not walk towards his kids when guns are drawn on him.

Based on what you said, the shooting cop had a right to discharge his weapon, point blank into Blake, rooted in conjecture, while knowing he could accidently shoot one of Blake's kids in the backseat.

"anti-Hawaiian" ?

Does that describe you? 

 

 😳 

😳 

This is the most meme's i've seen about a shooting.  And they're damn funny as hell.  Good guy took out 3 bad guys.

U old guys might not understand this one.

That video of his interview was actually very good and showed how level headed he was. There to protect businesses and offer aid to anyone on either side if needed.

If the other cheek, of the same buttock, did not push the Republicans out of power, there would have been a probability that Hawaii would have still been a White's dominated island, for many years more.

Do you think such racism disappears over time?

You really think that way?

Pathetic.

I assume that "they" have organized support.  Like that video where the guy was screaming for a TQ after he got shot with a rubber ball (non/less lethal).  I mean, good on them actually to have med folks there.  You only have one TQ?  Rookie. . .
