This is for the young brothers and sisters in their teens and twenties who are reading this and are trying to make sense of it all.
If Wendy's called 911 because a stray dog was running around the lot scaring customers and trying to bite children, the two same police officers would have shown up.
When the police were to arrive and see the dog, if they tried to grab the dog... the dog probably would have snapped at them.
After that if the dog ran away, the police would not have shot the dog as it ran away.
Let me say it again to be clear
: the police would not have shot the dog in the back if it was running away.
God forbid a cop did shoot a fleeing dog, the media and the racist cacs would rain down hell on the cop until his fired, charged with animal cruelty and his life is ruined.
Yet These same folks are defending Garrett Rolfe shooting Rayshard Brooks in the back 3 times for falling asleep in his own car.
A working man, with a fully black family, now has "fatherless" daughters and a stepson thanks to a murderous cops and there are people defending them shooting down an unarmed man in cold blood.
Chapelle was right... rat a tat tat is all these bytches understand
Dapped.
But also looking into it further, in Georgia they also have something called a "parked car DUI" and the precedent for this is Lewis v. State, 149 Ga. App. 181, 254 S.E.2d 142.
Apparently you can be arrested for a DUI under "circumstantial reasons". Even just having your key in the ignition can get your arrested if you are under the influence.
For the record: I do not agree with the police officer killing a young black man in cold blood.
Where do you live where this is the norm?
Exactly
There was absolutely nothing illegal about the arrest
The police themselves have determined that the arrest and shooting were both illegal and unwarranted and fired the officers involved and forced the police chief Erika Shields to step down.
Rayshard died with no charges filed on him. The DA has indicated that they would have declined to pursue the case if a DUI against Rayshard brought before the court.
Rayshard died with no warrants, open cases or crimes committed. He worked 6 days a week and took care of his wife, 3 daughters and a step-son.
A working man, father of 3, was killed for falling asleep in his car. The man fell asleep in a drive thru, had good enough sense of self to realize he shouldn't drive home, parked up and tried to sleep it off.
He was under no obligation to take field sobriety test or a breathalyzer. It is optional. The cops pressured him for 20 minutes to get him to voluntarily take that piece of shyt test.
To shoot down your angle
@sportscribe to get parked DUI you have to be in control of the vehicle. With him being asleep with the car parked on a private lot, they would have had a hard time establishing control of the vehicle. That's why it is heavily stressed that it is circumstantial charge.
Rayshard was parked and sleep and they realized he was not a belligerent drunk, so they proceed to antagonize him for a half hour to find a reason to arrest him. From the gate he saw them attempting to railroad him, and let the officer know that he wanted avoid any issues.
It is not a matter of opinion. The police officer's own department, the Atlanta Police Department, reviewed the body cam and surveillance videos and determined in 1 day that the officer acted unlawfully and terminated him.
They said we think you're under the influence put your hands behind your back at 29 minutes:
All this could have avoided if he just let them put the cuffs on at 29 minutes.
he failed the breathalyzer.
why did he resist arrest?
IN THE STATE OF GEORGIA, BY LAW YOU CAN RESIST AN UNLAWFUL ARREST WITH FORCE.
Ewumi v. State, 315 Ga. App. 656 (2012).
In 2012 The State of Georgia ruled that during an unlawful arrest, a man “was justified in resisting the attempted arrest with all force that was reasonably necessary to do so.”
you are not placed under arrest until you are read your miranda rights. Rayshard was never placed under arrest.
That officer is no longer employed by the Atlanta Police Department due to his behavior during this incident.
They have already determined that he was in the wrong. The same police department you guys are worshiping has determined that he was in the wrong for shooting an unarmed man in 1 business day.
The cops in Breonna Taylor's case have yet to be charged or fired, and this guy was fired in one day. And you really want to argue against us who are angry? when the fukking police agree with our assessment?
So yes this is the fukking hill for us to die on.
All Nap trolling aside
@śïñe•qúå_nøn is spreading dangerous misinformation.
First claiming Rayshard was shot while fighting the police on the ground, hence spreading a false self-defense angle, already debunked by the police themselves, and now disproved with the release of more surveillance videos. He was shot in the back and the buttocks according to the EMS on the scene.
They waited over two minutes before they provided any life saving techniques to help him. The lack of humanity is enough of a reason to bush those pigs.
Now he is saying they told him that he was under arrest when he was never placed under arrest. The police have to notify you that you are being placed under arrest and read you your Miranda rights before you are arrested.
Neither of those things occurred in any of the videos that we have been provided.
