    Love it. Good for that bar owner. I can't wait to see much more follow suit.

    I didn't link it because it's a part of the use of force continuum which can be found pretty easily with google. a knife and a baton are lethal weapons, and there is a 21' rule for how close you can allow a suspect to get without the possibility of being stabbed to death.

    It most certainly does teach that a gun is the next step up from those items. This is taught in the academy.

    Yes, a bigoted narrative reeking of hypocrisy.

    I'm not sure they'll ever figure out who made the 911 call:

    Yes. There needs to be push-back against racist cop-haters like Lebron James.

    Time for Lebron to be cancelled for a while spreading hate lies and conspiracy theories on social media.

    Luckily your opinion is not worth jack facial matter to me. It was not a rant, it was merely stating the facts. LaBron James whined about the police shooting a black girl that was trying to kill another black girl. James post basically said that he did not care about black on black violence. Only the fact that a black girl was killed by police. If Black Lives Matter, then they should be addressing the type of violence that kills far more blacks then the Police. Until they address that issue, they are nothing but a homegrown terrorist group. If you can not see that, then don't bother responding. You have nothing that I want to hear.

    What Poverty and Crime Statistics Look Like in the United States
    • People living in households in the US that have an income level below the Federal poverty threshold have more than double the rates of violent victimization compared to individuals in high-income households.
    • Individuals who live in poverty are more likely to report a crime than those who do not live in poverty, but more than half of all crime is believed to go unreported to local law enforcement.
    • When people live in households that are struggling with poverty, they also have a higher rate of violence that involves a firearm at 3.5 per 1,000 people compared to 0.8-2.5 per 1,000 people in middle-to-high income families.
    • For both whites and blacks/African-Americans in the US, the overall pattern of being in poverty with the highest rates of victimization was consistent. For Hispanics and Latinos, violent victimization is relatively equal across all income levels.

    LOL. A true trump supporter.
    Calling Statistics an opinion. LOL. Ever hear about math?

    Did the girl she was threatening to stab also have a right to life:

    Nicholas Reardon is a hero. The country needs more men like him.

    Amber J. Phillips is really weirdly obsessed with her fatness:

    She managed to take an article headlined "An Offering For Ma’Khia Khi’Riana Ty’lea Bryant Who Deserved To Live" and make it mostly about what a fatass Amber J. Phillips was and is.

    Reardon didn't shoot her because she was a fatass, or black, or female. He shot her because she was trying to stab people. He was right to do it.

    This is a prime example of how stupid some people can really be. There’s a reason why we don’t give every idiots opinion the same weight. If that had been a fat white kid stabbing at a black girl none of these social justice whiners would have raised an eyebrow.
    I also noticed that not one of them mentioned the black on black violence or how to slow that avalanche. One guy wanted to pay them off and let them have free s*** but that never got off the ground for obvious reasons.

    Indeed. Imagine people thinking this is nothing odd. While plenty of them also think killing an handcuffed person faced down on the pavement is also justified... it's like he almost was able to stab somebody.
