I like how the media always say "Black man" shot but never say "white man" shot

[peezer]

Lets wait to hear all the facts before you all pass judgement.

[caroldennis]

He punched the cop in the head, and had a gun enough said. The police made a good call

[willielumplump]

We don't know what happened yet. Let's wait until we hear what Lebron has to say before we form an opinion.

[robxo]

Why say “Blackman” say a criminal assaulted a officer and had a gun was shot! 😤🤬

[joemomma]

This is like a Netflix series. Season 20...episode 20...

This breaks my heart, all the way around. I wonder what "vehicle code", the man on the bike was violating? If he dropped the clothing bag and gun, shouldn't it have stopped there? I don't know. I'm just sick, at heart. Everyone on all sides are very anxious, fearful, angry. It seems that "normally", the police could handle at least some of these acts in nonlethal ways, but we are way beyond "normal".

So once he dropped his The bag that had a gun in it why would they need to shoot him if his weapons in a bag in the ground

[daltonhampton]

If the gun wasn't in his hands why did they shoot him. This is crazy.

[wesleylawrence]

Can you believe this stopping a man on a bike that just goes to show you that's police harassment and profiling

[aubreyjames]

Lmao A vehicle code for a bike. The cops do it to themselves. They just want attention at this point

[avmail]

It’s a crazy world where you can’t even ride a bike and then punch a cop and not get shot.

[rickhunter]

Yeah make a trip to South Central LA They'll pull your card

Why do they run if they don’t feel they’re guilty?

Every neighborhood they destroy is going to vote for Trump.

This isn’t a race issue like the media tries to make it. This is just a case of terrible police training due to misappropriated funds in police departments. They spend way more money on new squad cars, weapons, and armor than they do on actual training. It’s also way too easy to become a cop. You don’t exactly need a bachelor’s in criminal justice with required psychology courses. Don’t take the bait brothers and sisters. Let’s continue to seek truth in these unsettling times. Only the truth still set America free.

[Pearl]

So he was riding his bike? And now he’s dead.

[TheRebelutionary]

Am I missing something, they shot the guy AFTER he dropped the bag with the gun in it?

[lacygood]

That officer said that the suspect threw the clothes to the ground and the gun was in the clothes, ...so the police fired on an un-armed man? Again!?!

[smuggstewie]

Same as always. Rush to judgement with little or no facts. Hakim Littleton, remember him?
