    Agreed. This incident happened in March. The man was charged with resisting arrest and 'appropriate actions' were taken after the officers were investigated by the sheriff's department.

    The woman filming also says that the officers figured out that they had the wrong man and he didn't have an arrest warrant.

    uhhh, no, do not “storm” any town. Sacramento is a big town and can have their own follow up. People need to stay home right now unless they’re voting, TBH. We have laws to change, people to elect.

    And those deputies will still have jobs in law enforcement. Obviously those tactics haven't worked. Protests definitely should occur over this. It's so blatantly flagrant.

    Not according to the polls I saw this morning. A majority of Americans are with people fighting for justice.
    I think it was Nate Silver.

    It's obvious to the world who cannot deal with reality - and who can. Time to drop the entitlement.

    Oh , the racist card.

    Just like all the black man who say something you don't like are racist KKK supporters as well.

    Far easier to play that then deal with truth. Over 7,600 dispatch calls regarding violent crimes, cops used weapons on less than 0.08% of them. You want a perfect police force, join the cops and show them how it's done.

    If that's too hard, just stop committing violent/sexual crimes over and over again? Why isn't that something you'd say to George Floyd, the child molestor, the drunk passed out guy at the drive through ... 12% commit 60%+ of violent crime and all you want to do is ignore that and talk about police bias? Basically you're lazy mentality just encourages George Floyd to keep doing the same things over and over again, because of slavery I guess, and then in the 10th or 11th interaction with cops something goes down, and you want to play the victim.

    Actually a fairly common weapon these days .... I've been commissioned by several people to make them in damascus.

    They are illegal to carry in Texas (double edged)

    why people keep resisting arrest or not following instructions when they know these cops are trigger happy?

    Yeah, because how dare I call out actual racists who out themselves as racist.

    I realize you're one of them though, so your initial reaction is to defend racists because you are one. Your posting history has made that quite clear.

    Blue Lives Matter supporters arrested with slew of firearms outside Kenosha after police received tip about possible shooting, DOJ says
    The men were in the city for a Trump rally and "to see proof of the rioting."

    Because they are human beings evolved with a million years of 'fight or flight' response.

    People frequently panic. I mean Trump himself just said the other day that LEO panic and shoot people so it makes sense that people panic when arrested. LEO certainly should have the ability to think critically also.

    There are all sorts of reasons for resisting arrests besides just panic, there are people who aren't thinking right because of mental illness or under the influence, there are probably a lot of those who think they can escape, and there are people who do actually fear for their life because they don't trust LE. I think it should be a given that a certain amount of people will resist arrest but resisting arrest shouldn't automatically mean death. Especially when the suspect is already cuffed like in the George Floyd and Prude cases.

    I've never panicked but have felt uneasy before when approached by LE.
