Re: Here We Go Again (Columbus, OH).
I've seen that as well. I don't own any guns, nor shoot, but even I know how stupid and dangerous that is. A bullet comes down SOMEWHERE.BDKJMU wrote: ↑Fri Apr 23, 2021 9:09 am Joy Behar: officer could have just shot the gun in the air.

Re: Here We Go Again (Columbus, OH).
I don't think that's really the stupid part. Somebody swinging a knife is going to be deterred by a loud noise. Everyone there was yelling already.dbackjon wrote: ↑Fri Apr 23, 2021 9:38 amI've seen that as well. I don't own any guns, nor shoot, but even I know how stupid and dangerous that is.

I heard someone say warning shots are pretty much prohibited by ever police agency in the US.dbackjon wrote: ↑Fri Apr 23, 2021 9:38 amI've seen that as well.

Re: Here We Go Again (Columbus, OH).
That was an accurate report. They did show the scene where you could see the knife in the girl's hand. They had a crawler underneath saying "Police fatally shoot 16-year old Black girl holding a knife." They clearly reported that she had a knife. They showed the knife laying on the ground after the incident. The idea that they were trying to hide or underplay that fact is ridiculous.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

Re: Here We Go Again (Columbus, OH).
A screen shot from the NBC news story is below. It shows the shot with the young lady lunging at the other one with a knife with the crawler saying "Police fatally shoot 16-year old Black girl holding a knife." How does that translate into "They didn't say she had a knife?"

Re: Here We Go Again (Columbus, OH).
Now I'll make the post I came here to make:
I never thought I'd see the day when I'd say this but I am actually starting to feel sorry for the police. This is getting really ridiculous.

You hold a knife when you're buttering your toast. If they were actually trying to be accurate, they would say (not put it on the crawler at the bottom of the screen) police shoot attacker attempting to stab someone.
Jeezus, you make this too easy sometimes. There is no way you can be this dumb in real life. It just isn't possible.

Do you see a knife in that screen shot? You are the most blind partisan on this board John.JohnStOnge wrote: ↑Fri Apr 23, 2021 4:42 pm A screen shot from the NBC news story is below.

Not a good look. Even worse when you’re using years old Laura Ingraham bits.
And yes, LeBron’s comments weren’t a good look either but I’d prefer my cops to rise above. I expect less of professional athletes.

I agree. Kalm was just taking it a little too seriously.

Its a predictable outcome of being so easily triggered by anything even slightly out of step with the lefty orthodoxy
