96 shots. It’s astounding they didn’t kill a bystander.

Here's the thing! They fired 96 times! There absolutely could have been bystanders killed!
you know who else might wear bulletproof west and yell while aiming guns at you? other criminals trying to assasinate you. And if that is the case the only slim chance you have to survive is to shoot back. So if the cops wanted to “stop and look” under the pretext of a unused seatbelt then maybe they should have used…
Either way, cops have repeatedly proven that they don’t deserve any benefit of the doubt. Until there’s absolutely clear footage of Reed firing first, I’m gonna assume that the cops are lying.
This is gross, and you should feel bad for even attempting to justify this execution.
I’m a firm believer that cops empty clips and keep reloading and then claim that a bad guy fired first.
With all of that known information one would think these supposedly trained, professional LEOs could have come up with a better way to take this guy in other than trying to swarm his car in plain clothes and guns drawn.
“any officer approaching the car or by the car would have to be in fight or flight mode.”
I’m a firm believer that if the bad guy fires at the Police first or tries or attempt to injure while fleeing, then the response should be to empty clips and keep reloading.
“Plain clothes or not, I know an unmarked Police Ford Explorer when I see one.”
Cops managed to take that Florida woman in without firing a shot, and she was actively shooting up cars on the highway!
I suspect we’ll learn more about what went down and why in the coming days.
None of that justifies 5 cops firing 96 times. The criminal penalty for everything you described is not summary execution. Cops aren’t supposed to be executioners.
Sit in the quiet for 41 seconds. Do nothing. Feel how long 41 seconds is.
Chicago police claim…
Don’t defund the police. Just disarm them. Take those guns away and see how they treat strangers who may or may not be armed.
I cant watch the video at work, but unmarked car and police in street clothes (which is what it sounds like these cops were from the article) cannot expect to be treated like cops when they run up on people.
I also like the Switzerland model where they factor in your earnings when calculating the fine. If this influencer shithead wants to make millions and be a public menace, fine him according to his most recent year’s earnings.
Because he hasn’t run over any innocent people yet. Gotta give him a chance to really prove how dangerous he is, apparently.
I am 100% down for this, also you KNOW he is a massive douche canoe by those dumb AF boots alone. Also how about we implement a law like they have in, I think Sweden, when it comes to speeding. If you are caught going double the speed limit the fine is, your car. Doesn’t matter if you own it, you rented it, you…
