  1. So nobody’s gonna question if that was a negligent discharge or not..? Other than that this was hilarious 🤣

  2. Clearly the officer must learn that anyone you pull over and that starts talking with the high pitched female tone is going to resist and run!

  3. Hmm not sure how I feel about this one. Definitely looked like an accidental discharge. Plus, I am not even sure why he had his gun out anyway. From what I could see and hear, there was no indication of deadly threat… not yet at least.

  4. remedial behavior when faced with actionable command means perp’s mentally preparing for deadly fight. black men using high pitched voice of confusion is also a pre-attack indicator.

  5. This is the first time I've ever heard the "parked on and facing the wrong direction" reason for a traffic stop. Is that a real thing?

  6. Really is every person for themselves with these idiots… Just abandon your buddy to make your getaway after he got shot…. only worried bout yourself…

  7. Guys you why those guys are doing what they doing? coz they know the law and they know that it's so fragile… human right! yeah right.. those who cross the line shall be punished no matter what will happen in the media.. you misbehave, you get what you deserve! simple!
