    It is called moral decay and it wont' get better under the current government of this country. I would like to use the word leadership, but that just doesn't work here!

    I definitely see that police departments control the flow of information to their benefit. If something's f***y, it's a stone wall of "we can't comment on ongoing investigations". That's bullshit because they comment on ongoing investigations all the time. If there's somebody they want to crucify, it's, "oh here is our suspect and his criminal history and this incriminating photo / video".

    You mean she only intended to commit grievous bodily harm?
    That's justified to shoot too. Deadly force is that force capable of death or GRIEVOUS BODILY HARM.
    Slice and dice, or kill you with one strike doesn't matter.

    A TASER is to force compliance to an arrest not stopping someone from trying to kill someone.

    Girl intended? Is she a surgeon with a reputation for her precision with a scalpel? Or as she just "sliced & diced" enough little girls that the cop should've trusted that she knew what she was doing and wouldn't kill the girl the ws about to stab in the throat?

    Yes and I am sure had a non-force let's talk officer had arrived that person who was stabbed and bleeding out would be comforted by the fact the the officer was talking to the person who had just killed them instead of stopping them cold.

    She was using a lethal weapon and slicing and dicing can kill. Are you REALLY going to assert that the office should have allowed her to stab the other girl? How many times before he used the appropriate force to stop her? I guess the officer should have just let her go home if she didn't want to be arrested and they could have gone to her house later and see if she would allow them to arrest her then?

    After looking at this further, the girls were there to jump her on her property. That sorta makes her an armed home dweller using a knife to fend off her multiple attackers (disparity of force) and then being shot dead by the cops for defending her life against her trespassing attackers.

    Maybe this will go somewhere. If people showed up at my house, trespassing on my property to jump me, it would not be a knife I would come out with; it would be an AR-15. I may be on this dead girl’s side now.

    Except she went inside, called the cops, waited, then came back outside with a knife as the cops showed up and there was zero threat to her at that time. No threat means you can't use deadly force..
    If you escape the danger, you don't have the right to go charging back into it and claim self defense. You become the aggressor in that situation.

    Was deadly force being used against her? Did the officers know that when they arrived? Were they supposed to let her stab the girl and then ask why she did it?

    Wow, quick thinking/action by the LEO. Probably saved the other girls life. On the other hand, the way that leftist politicians and blacks are likely to turn against Officers. I'm wondering if more Officers are just gonna let these ferals wipe one another out, and run the papers on them after the fact. Or quit and go work in Mayberry where people and life make sense.

    Honestly the best way to tell whether police actions are justified or not, just shooting from the hip\rule of thumb style, is based on whether or not they immediately release the body and dash cam footage.

    If they do solid bet its justified and they released the tapes immediately because they have nothing to hide. When they slow walk it, 9/10 times there is something damning in the tape

    Regardless, there was no activity until the officer showed up and then all carnage broke out. They all saw the officer arrive and if your scenario rang true, the person should have let the officer handle the situation. Taking a knife to repel the invaders right when an officer arrives, makes you the assailant as the officer has NO clue to who is who when first arriving. Everyone is the suspect until further investigation but the person attempt to do bodily harm which forced the officer to react with lethal force.

    You can check my posting history, I don't often yell racist at all. His comment has exactly zero merit. Civilized people cheat, lie, steal, rape, murder, maim and assault each other constantly. Why do you think we have police in the first place?

    Why is it you all go right to racist?! Cops are called to situations where many times there are drugs, alcohol, rush of endorphins and generally angry people. That's white, black, brown, yellow, pink and purple. Most times people are out of their minds and cops have to deal with it so calm your racial bullshit yourself!!

    Dont think the cop knew any of that, all he saw was someone trying to stab an unarmed girl. I don’t fault him for the decision he made. I just wish we had a reliable non lethal way to stop someone immediately.
    For the record if you see someone trying to stab me, please shoot them

    if that is true, the guy kicking the girl on the ground and the girl trying to stab the other girl should have stayed inside and waited for the police

    have not read this yet, any links?

    "you all"? "right to"?
    Yeah and those people doing drugs and being *******s are what are known as 'civilized' people. As stated civilized people do god awful ****ed up **** to each other, that's why we have cops and rights to self defense.
    The cop acted rightly in this case, calm down I'm not denigrating your nice blue person.
