CNN hypocrisy and biased over the Wisconsin shooting accident

I won't play into the conservative story about the shooting of Jacob Blake in Kenosha, Wisconsin, a small city by the lake of Michigan. They claimed that Jacob Blake, in a stable condition at the ICU, was known by the local law enforcement as domestic violence, a woman abuser and a violent criminal. They never produce one document to prove their claims. I won't believe it. However, I will accept what I saw in the video. A man resisting arrest made a run to his car with the possibility to pull a gun or weapon. He had all the reasons in the world to avoid that. He had his three kids in the car.


Now this will lead us to how the media like CNN handle the incident. Jacob Blake was walking to his car. He entered the car, then the police officer shot him seven times in the back. CNN ignored the facts that the video revealed, Jacob Blake wasn't cooperating with police officers, and he walked to his car against their orders.


I won't make false claims that police officers are angels. They are humans subjected to make mistakes. Meanwhile, some police officers are looking for a reason to shoot. They carry loaded weapons. When they find the slightest reasons to shoot, they will do it. I know that some police officers are ignorant of limited training and education. I notice many incidents of mentally challenged becoming victims as they interact with police on different occasions. But when you are a mentally healthy citizen, listen to the instructions of the police even if it was silly or stupid, and don't lose your life over what, nothing.


America is experiencing a dangerous trend, glorifying criminals, and wrongdoing in not popular media but in mainstream media. I will be curious to know what CNN will report if Jacob Blake shot one of the police officers, and the officer died or seriously injured. What they will tell his family and loved ones. CNN describes the criminal involved in a five years old boy killed execution-style in Wilson, North Carolina as a suspect. Darius Sessoms shot the boy in front of his family house in broad daylight, and he was called a suspect. Now, this is media hypocrisy.


End

 

I had not read that he was known as "a woman abuser and a violent criminal" The police were however investigating a domestic violence complaint... He never got in the car, but did open the door...he was not violently resisting... he was out numbered by the police who did have tasers...he was shot in the back with his children in the car...no one was glorifying a violent criminal it has not been shown he was a criminal. Last night Fox news last night reported of "riots in Kenoshia, but only said "over the wounding of a black man" Here is how Reuters reported the incident:

KENOSHA, Wis. (Reuters) - Wisconsin's governor called out the National Guard on Monday, and police in the city of Kenosha skirmished with protesters during a second night of unrest over the wounding of a Black man shot in the back by police as his three children looked on.

Ordering Guard troops deployed to Kenosha, on the shore of Lake Michigan 40 miles (65 km) south of Milwaukee, Governor Tony Evers also decried what he branded excessive force in the shooting of Jacob Blake, and called for a special legislative session to consider police reforms...

Evers, a Democrat, said he ordered Guard troops to Kenosha at the request of local officials to help maintain order after activists said they were organizing further demonstrations for Monday night.

He also said police had shown a pattern of "excessive use of force and immediate escalation when engaging with Black Wisconsinites."

Let's tell the whole story so people can fairly judge for themselves.

 

At some point, people are actually going to put all the dots together here. Democratic mayor, Democratic city council... Police shootings. Not that hard to connect these dots.

 

Why is your poll calling this a shooting accident?
Typo?

Edit: Also news outlets use the terms suspect and accused prior to conviction. It’s a pretty standard practice.

 

"CNN hypocrisy and biased...". CNN REVELS in it's hypocrisy and bias!

 

There was absolutely no need for the cop to shoot the man who was walking away from him. There were three cops there couldn't they have restrained the guy without shooting him SEVEN TIMES??? The guy had his three kids in the SUV which looked like a late model Honda. The cop is very lucky none of the bullets were deflected and injured one of the kids.

 

End? Where's the beginning? For all I know this was a dream you had last night. Got a link?

 

CNN: Dangerous garbage

 

If I were a cop today I would let any suspect walk away, run away, drive away. I would then radio his description and tag number, then I would head for Dunkin. Anyone resisting arrest I would radio for backup, set in my car and wait for backup. When backup arrived I would give all info to officer in charge and then drive off to Dunkin. Should I be fired from my job I would find a job where I had respect from the leftist public and the media.

 

Multiple choice question on my police academy entrance exam: (scale 3 points for the best answer, 2 for the second best etc)
A suspect has been detained by four officers. He has verbally but not physically resisted arrest. He has walked away from the officers and begins to open his car door the officers should
A. Let him go, they know who he is and can find and arrest him any time:
B. Use physical force to detain him if necessary
C, Use a tazer
D. shoot him in the back at close range 7 times

scoring: B 3 points, C 2 points, A 1 point, D. don't bother finishing the exam

 

Here's what we got -- cop shoots man; people retaliate by burning down other people's businesses. Who supports that? Cop may have reacted in haste, still to be determined what the man was reaching for, and clearly he was reaching into his car. Let the court decide the fate of the cop. That's what civilized people support. But the rioters -- Insanity and savagery on display.

 

Once again justification for shooting an unarmed civilian...He deserved to be shot...there are other things that could have been done to avoid the shooting they were ignored. Shooting a person should be the last recourse, not the first option. The reaction of the people in the street does not in any way justify the shooting as the man would have remained shot even if the people had ignored the shooting. Don't change thee subject.

 

It was not a matter of deserving to be shot. He failed to follow directions of law enforcement. That invariably leads to confrontation and a fight. The black leadership all but advises black men to resist or hate the police. That attitude is responsible for more killing black men than law enforcement.

 

I dare ANY white person here to try and run for their car when getting arrested. I got 5 bucks that says you will get shot too.

 

The video of the man walking away with the cops following with their guns in hand is a must see for eveyone of what not to do when cops give you an order. All mothers need to teach their babies to obey all cops. That's what a civilized society does.

 

Speaking of media bias and hypocrisy....

Civilized people don't kill unarmed civilians.

 

And I BET they call themselves CHRISTIANS !!!!! Which they clearly ARE NOT !!!

 

What is needed is leadership from the president.

That is not happening. He continues to foment anger, resentment, and hatred in the nation.

Even if Blake isn't a choir boy, I don't see evidence that several shots in the back were justified. They could have called for back up, and forcibly removed him and handcuffed him.

If it turns out that Blake prior to the video, had a gun or was visibly violent to the point of injuring someone, then the officer's shooting will be mitigated. But, do we hae all the facts?

the larger dots being failure of leadership from a President that foment anger, resentment, and hatred in AMerica,

the fish rots from the head down.

 

Our actions cause reactions. I bet if someone pulled a gun on you and told you to hand over your wallet you wouldn't turn and walk away.

 

Was lethal force justified? Could he have not been tazed?

 

And yet, all of these conditions happened, oft actually during the Obama years. So, your analysis here seems perhaps a little stunted given this. The realization that is occurring to folks, lots of folks actually, is that this cycle of violence moves wherever democrats lead. You cannot ignore that any longer. Blaming Trump, or for that matter Obama for their existence seems at least a bit disingenuous here. I might make an exception for Obama given he did say stupid things like "trayvon could be my son"... or other egregious BS.

 

No that is what a police state does. They could have solved the problem without shooting. Shooting should be the last resort.

 

There were THREE cops there, he was not a particularly large man, they should have been easily able to subdue him without shooting him seven times in the back.

 

I have no idea. The details are not available whether he had a taser available or not or whether he thought he had enough time to react with a taser.

Back to my original point. Just follow the orders of law enforcement to start with.
