'Relentless': Daunte Wright murder Is Latest In Recurring American Ritual | The Beat With Ari Melber
So sad.
Seditiously wicked title man fr fr.
😏
Police to English translation:
Police say: Taser! Taser! Taser!
Police mean: Get out of the way so I can execute this individual.
We are still on course. Do your bit soon Ari. We will be adding more defendants.
Ok the taser is yellow but yet they are trying to say it was accidental? Wtf. She should also face murder charges.
@Arbeit Macht frei
pretty sure you were not there.
So your opinion is of no interest to i.
I seen what happened.
You are nobody to I.
You could not have known his reason for getting back in vehicle.
Why did he pull over, stop, ect if he wanted to flee?
Bad choice.
@Bass INC just because i wasn’t there doesn’t mean i don’t know his intention of fleeing. what do you think he’s going to do when getting into the car? pay his taxes? ofc he is trying to flee. if you’re a cop you would’ve had several suspects fleeing by now
@Arbeit Macht frei
He chose to go for a joyride with a bad tag and a warrant for his arrest.
What could possibly go wrong?
Why would he not expect to be pulled over?
Careful the environment you choose your energy to become.
@Bass INC wait i’m confused so you agree that he’s a bad person? then why don’t you agree that he is literally about to flee the scene then?
@Arbeit Macht frei
Retrieve a weapon he has stashed.
Maybe he wanted to be BLM martyr?
Why go for joyride in auto with bad regulation with a warrant for arrest out for you?
Why pull over knowing you have a warrant?
Then change your mind.
Don’t flee on foot where you have a chance to escape?
Come to think of it, maybe you do know how he thinks?
You know the news coverage was much different when a male police officer did the same thing years ago. I don’t think she will go to prison like he did either
This can’t keep going on something got to be done about. Bad cop
Ari break the. news today, tonight….they are going to say they lost the baby by tomorrow morning and try to ride on sympathy
Seems like AMURDERCA never learn 😂😂😂
All over an expired tag. So sad.
All over resisting arrest
This one is straight up oppsie doopsie. He should have just chilled out. She should have looked down. to see what she was holding. and made sure it was a taser.
This is not a murder. It is manslaughter “Causing the death of another through negligence.” This was not premeditated. It is not comparable to George Floyd. The officer should be held accountable, but the public loves inflammatory rhetoric. Use the right term in your reporting.
This clip does no show the officer fumbling with the cuffs for more than 5 to 7 seconds like the one I originally saw.
I am not familiar with the procedure, but should he have not cuffed him off the street for both their safety ?
This looks like an accident and her reaction seems genuine. I’m fully aware of the existing systemic issue that works against people of color, but this is an accident. We have to know the difference. We also can’t continue to defend people for resisting arrest unless you’re ready to make that okay for everyone.
The eye rolling of the two cops as this woman is pouring her hart out. The entire reason this type of thing happens
Stats 2005-2020:
Annual mean police shootings 1994-When Congress instructed stats to be gathered – never gathered.
Annual mean ” justifiable homicides, 400 from ’94-2015, when that estimate was raised to 930 to 1240 – due to a high number of nonreporting police departments in 2015 alone.
Washington Post listing police killings is about 1,000 per year. Other research has shown the number to be 10% to 20% higher.
Of these, if we assume a steady yearly number, we find only 42 convicted at all out of near 15000 shootings, 5,000 arrests of the police shooters, and 42 of those convicted.
Pardon my comment attempt at unraveling this poor data.
Murder by this 42 of 5000 resulted in 5 , a nice clean one in one thousand charged.
Manslaughter, another 11 of the 5000 even charged. Remember, 15000 shootings in 15 years. .2%.
Not 2 percent, two tenths of one percent.
Theother 26 were convicted of all that negligent and unlawful discharge crap, as if they shot into the air and it hit someone by chance.
FBI keeps close stats on Police who were shot, but not of citizens shot by police.
Gun murders are always exceeded by gun suicides, last year by over 20%, but due to most of you being under the delusion that possessing a gun will “protect” you, gun ownership and threats to others are not remotely accurately known in the US.
More is known about the number of parking tickets individuals have, than about their bristling with guns and ammo.
Your nation is a random pile of fireworks with constant dropping of matches. And numbers of weapons appears to be about 3 per every living human here, distributed in bunches, with some average of four to over 30 to over 100, depending on the individuals who desire to possess guns.
An increasing subset are semiautos, with the rifles trending to predominabtly semiauto, many easily turned into full automatic.
Assault rifles in full auto fired with short pauses reach 15 to 20 rounds per second. I was invited to fire a popular machine pistol at about 9 to 15 bullets per second, so that large clip empties before overheating.
Now, i strongly desire that firearms be completely outlawed for private possession, and a part of that desire is so that police can normally function without firearms.
But this must become the US norm, enough so that congress and states agree that the second amendment be repealed completely.
Too many individuals gather in violence-oriented groups, stll claiming the ridiculous word “militia,” even though the high court ended up defining a militia as “armed and trained by the state apart from formal military” and including national guard.
This must all go, or else you can expect the death by gun stats to continue to double over a few years as it demonstrably has in the few partial statistics able to be gathered. Public concern has not been able to induce congress and administrations to gauge the actual levels of coercion, violence, threat, or even police agency homicides.
This isn’t accountability, it’s two cops making sure they aren’t fired so they still get their pensions and be able to continue working somewhere else.
Avoidable you should have said he should have been voidable and not doing felony evading arrest he calls his own murder like they say play stupid games Win stupid prizes
why is the national guard there for them more than when all the rioters at the washington capitol.
