Which BLM protests have you seen involving armed takeovers of Federal buildings?

which armed black protestor in ferguson or Baltimore was shot. Police in Baltimore were told to stand down . Police had to stand there and watch them not only take over buildings in the city but burn them down.

Which is why it's a poor comparison.

People on the streets advocating for their rights (not the looters and smashers, those people were opportunist *****) is a very different scenario than out-of-state armed guys taking over a Federal building.

Illuminating that you condemn the one and (seemingly) champion the other.

.

I was asked for an example where armed blacks took over property and were not killed . I provided such. your argument defining motivation has nothing to do with that point.

No, they were not. He reached for his waistband twice, the second time for about 4 seconds.

No, they were not. He had previously fled from the police and almost killed a LEO by running the blockade.


his hands were up until he started to get shot at.... he's reaching at his wounds, not the waistband... guy behind him finishes him off.... he was unarmed.... CAN'T WAIT FOR THE PERSONAL CAM ON THAT

yea the fact they are white makes them an easy protest group to push around. If they were black or arab the government would be bringing them food and blankets

If this had been a random car full of black guys, the same people who support these idiots would be saying it's their fault any of them got shot because they didn't immediately comply with law enforcement. But it's law enforcement's fault here, right?

Random black guy in the same situation. Do you defend him too or say he should have had his hands way up so as not to cause any confusion or itchy trigger fingers?

Idiot. He was clearly reaching for something in his waistband. They should have shot him the first time he lowered his hands and went for his belt.

First rule of 'hands up, don't shoot', is keep to your hands up.

Fleeing felon, known to be armed, attempted murder on a LEO, and you defend him?

Must really be nice to be white.

Full video is out. Justified, IMO.


Fully justified. They run away from the cops, and then the criminal reaches down to his waist twice, presumably to get to a weapon (he was armed). That's how you get shot by the cops.

Duh. I can hardly wait for the excuses about the martyred patriot.

not needed he is white, the excuse of reaching for something is not needed to shoot him.

????? newfie tieguy, you are making no sense. #grammarmatters

As soon as he fled a lawful stop he was fair game. A known armed felon, attempted vehicular homicide...light him up.

They shot at him the moment he left the vehicle ... his hands were up and was getting shot at... that sh* hurts, you'd prolly reach for it.... he got shot over 15 times.... JEEZ

An armed, anti-government, anti-police white guy participated in an illegal occupation of a government building...ended up shot.

I'm not sure what the punch-line here is.
