  1. Please, please let this be the moment.

    Let this be the moment we become MORE THAN THE SUM OF OUR PARTS.

    Please.

    1. @John Watt I agree, but she made a mistake based on her reaction. And the gun flew out if her hand which is an indicator she wasn’t prepared for the recoil.

  2. you’re right handed and your firearm is purposely on your dominant hand side of your body. you should have known that if you were accessing your taser, you would have to reach across your body to get it.

    1. I was always nervous mounting handgun on right side because the grip pointed towards my back where someone behind me could grab it. So I mounted pistol on the left with grip facing out towards my front, and was well practiced in reaching across my body with right hand to grab it. The problem is that some macho decided to make and store tasers in the shape of pistols. They should be stored and shaped like cardo pads for car, then no mistakes.

    2. Jack Nicolson’s definition of how he writes as a woman. Take a man, and take away reason and accountability.

    3. @sally forth no excuse… my taser and my service sig felt TOTALLY DIFFERENT… from the shape to the weight…

    1. NONWHITES WOULD STILL BE COMMITTING CRIMES. IT’S IN THEIR BLOOD. IT’S BETTER TO LET LAW ENFORCEMENT KEEP DOING THEIR THING – IT’S A GOOD SYSTEM

    2. @B1ACK DRUGG1ES MUST D1E What about those priests turning boys into homosexuals, they aren’t black.

  3. “Intended to fire a Taser, not a handgun” – If a cop can’t tell the difference between a Taser and a handgun then they are not fit to be a cop or be armed.

    1. @Bow Cray Roblox Read it slowly.
      Start at the top, move right and down.
      You are allowed to move your lips or even say the words out loud if that helps.
      I have not used any long or difficult words.
      I have even broken the paragraphs into short sentences and put each on its own line.

      Which part do you have a problem with? How can I help?

      Apologies if you meant hurt in a different manner, such as exercised it or emotionally stressed it… that is conceivable, I suppose – it is a tough subject.

    2. @Active Belligerence Yes, good point. I takes years of training and education to develop a lot of different skills.

    3. @Bow Cray Roblox they have armoured vehicles with mounted weaponry. And I said Armed Forces, not Military.
      Their First and foremost should not be the weaponry that they are deployed with. They are a Police force, not an Armed force.

    4. @Scott Parr not even years man just consistent repetitive training. Like you can’t train officers for 6 months and throw them out there most officers don’t have enough money or time to continually train and that’s a problem

  4. I’ve been watching the Darin Chauvin trial because George Floyd deserves our witness. But it is hard and will remain hard until it stops.

    1. Oh gosh, I can’t even. I will never forget thier names though, it is like a heartbreaking chant.

    1. This was recorded, in its entirety, their department has had body cameras since may of 2019, the video of the incident is on youtube, labeled body cam footage Captain obvious.

  5. Is it a full moon right now cuz there is to much going on, this, the army lieutenant another school shooting. WTF.

  6. God I don’t know what is happening here in my city. I’m so ashamed and I’ve loved living here my whole life. We are on curfew again due to more riots. May Wright RIP. Love not hate ppl. 💕💕💕

    1. I’m sure you blamed Trump for the first riot even though he had nothing to do with it. Why are you not blaming Biden this time?

    2. The rude responses here are indicative of a) extraordinary entitlement and b) the effectiveness of trolling. Stay safe, stay strong.

    1. The officer said that to the black lieutenant that got pulled over I Virginia as well I don’t know if that is what your referring to cuz I didn’t watch this video yet

    2. @Zayri Lookman The officer said that in the video, He also said he was 80 percent sure that the lieutenant was black… now this is obvious racism because first of all, the officer said that he could not see the lieutenant because of the black tinted windows which shows what kind of man he is (He is Racist). You could also say that the black lieutenant slapped the officers hand like the officer said, but the lieutenant did not in both body cam videos. The other officer said after the confrontation that it was not good that the lieutenant went into the well lit area and the chubby officer threatened the lieutenant that he would detain him and throw him in jail if he were to tell anyone what happened while also saying “nothing will happen to me”. Of course we have seen how the lieutenant had went against there threat and sued them with assault.

    3. @Judi Trotter It’s a general term from the movie,” Green Mile”, ride the lightning means the electric chair.

    4. They didn’t show the video so you can see what happened. They want you to hear what they say happened. The video won’t fit their narrative.

  7. This stinks in so many ways. It starts with a traffic stop for “expired license” or maybe “air freshener”. Then an officer pulls out a firearm and somehow doesn’t know it isn’t a taser. Then shoots the unarmed Black “suspect” at point blank range, a fatal shot. All an “accident”. Never informed the man exactly why he had been stopped nor why he was going to be taken into custody.

    1. Traffic stops drug cases domestic violence and mental health cases. ON THE HEELS OF THE LT. COPS VIOLENCE SEEMS TO MIRROR THEIR LACK OF FEELING FOR FELLOW HUMANS. AND EVEN LAUGHING OR GETTING MAD WHEN PPL SAY THEY ARE SCARED. IE Elijah in Aurora.

    2. IT’S NOT AN ACCIDENT. NONWHITES ARE CRIMINALS, IT’S IN THEIR BLOOD. THEREFORE THEY HAVE TO BE STOPPED WHENEVER THE SITUATION PRESENTS ITSELF

  8. Many police forces hire veterans. They must have PTSD or something. They can’t all be thus incompetent

  9. Now you’re talking about the way I’ve been feeling for so long now, Amiche! Saying I’m sorry is just not enough.

  10. listening to Moms interview she stated she just purchase the car for him a few weeks ago her son says he been pull over for the air fresher maybe the tags wasn’t expired

  11. Amber Guyger, the female officer who killed Bothem Jean by ‘accident’ was convicted of murder. That officer ‘forgot’ where she lived. This female ‘senior’ officer who killed Daunte didnt know her taser from her gun and this ‘accident’ happens a few miles from Chauvin’s trial? I do not believe in coincidences.

  12. Dittzx… exactly what I was thinking. This tragic shooting reminded me of Oscar Grant…the young, black man who was shot in the back by a BART officer in 2009. That officer thought he was using a taser when it was his gun.

    1. kinda different and kinda the same… in 2009 we had just gotten the tasers a couple months before the incident… and the officer involved had less than 5 years experience if i recall correctly… in this case this Minnesota officer is a TWENTY SIX YEAR veteran and their department has had tasers for a lot longer… I get your point tho… but by now if she cant tell the difference after all those years she needs to be fired immediately
