Looks like the shooter clearly instigated violence while carrying a gun. This is pretty standard behavior for armed right-wingers. Rile people up either physically or verbally, then shoot when someone stands up for themselves or tries to intervene.

Because gun nuts really want to live out a fantasy where they get to kill someone.

Because people are incapable of turning and shooting apparently.

Also, tasers are LESS lethal weapons. Theyre meant to subdue subjects but can still prove fatal. But once again, the weapon itself isnt even the main thing; its what that guy could do after discharging it.

If an armed person was running away from your home and you shoot them you would be charged because self defense does not cover shooting a person fleeing.

The same must be applied to the police. Not doing so means we give the police the ability to kill anyone they want.

BERKELEY, Calif. (KGO) -- The City of Berkeley has voted to ban the use of tear gas during protests. Before that decision was made Tuesday night the Berkeley Chief of Police was in discussion about it with council members. Some of what he said is being criticized.

"Firearms, we can shoot people." Berkeley Police Chief Andrew Greenwood said that and was referring to other options that could be used instead of tear gas. Councilmember Susan Wengraf asked the chief about staying safe in a protest situation without tear gas. "Chief does our department have any other tools to protect themselves in a situation like you just described?" she said.

The chief responded, "Firearms, we can shoot people. No I don't mean to be callus but if you don't have less lethal force that can drive it back then we are absent a tool."

Those words have sparked quite a bit of reaction in the community.

Berkeley NAACP chapter president Manseur In-Denn said, "being in Berkeley all of his life should have taught him that's not the right answer for question like that.

Berkeley District 4 Councilwoman Kate Harrison said, "I was saddened because I really think it elicits this fear that some people have about the police."

The city council has voted to prohibit the use of tear gas in Berkeley something that council member Kate Harrison said she was and is in support of. The police chief came back later in the meeting with an emotional apology for what he had said. "I was asked what other tools I have....(pause) I'm tired as are all my people I should be more mindful of that I should have said we have nothing else in that gas and smoke are the last tools we have." Council members tell me that they have been very happy with the Chief's work over the years. In the past 12 years they have not had any officer-involved shootings.

https://www.nj.com/union/2020/06/nj-mayor-criticized-after-saying-hes-pro-good-black-people-at-protest.html

Protesters are criticizing the mayor of a Union County township for saying he was pro-Black for all the good Black people that he knew during a demonstration against social injustice Saturday.

In the video provided to NJ Advance Media by protester Reid Alexander Ranalli, several demonstrators during a protest in Clark Township asked Clark Mayor Sal Bonaccorso if he would declare that he was pro-Black.

I am pro-Black for all the good Black people that I know in my life, Bonaccorso responded.
After hearing the displeasure of the crowd, he continued.

I cant say that I am for anybody if I do not know you," he said. "I am for people. Good people. Law-abiding, hard-working, good family, good friends, and people with good intentions. If youre Black, great. If you are white, great. If you are Hispanic, great. It does not matter. I judge people on how you judge me. If you want to be my friend and stick your hand out, Ill shake your hand, and I will look you in the eye. My family is Italian-American. When my grandfather came to this country, he was discriminated against.

Emails to Bonaccorso, a Republican, and the township office for comment on the pushback were not returned Tuesday.
In a video of his address to the crowd, he also said he was not racist, and that he will treat people always with respect.
The crowd and protest organizers took issue with the mayors comments.

I thought the mayor said whatever he could to avoid committing to that statement, being pro-Black, and all of its implications, protest organizer Hanif Denny told NJ Advance Media.

Ranalli, who grew up in Rahway, said he and many of the other protesters were there Saturday to discuss racial inequities in Clark, and said he didnt think the mayor acknowledged those inequalities.

(The protesters) were talking about growing up, and kids would be afraid to drive through there because they get pulled over, Ranalli said. The elements (of racism) are already there.

Rahway Mayor Raymond A. Giacobbe was in attendance and also addressed the protesters. In another video of the event, the Rahway mayor, a Democrat, told the crowd he had known Bonaccorso for a long time.

I am going to tell you right now, this man is not a racist, Giacobbe, who is also white, told the diverse crowd. But, he could not have an understanding of what the African-Americans are going through in this town because he has not ever had to experience that. Lets have that dialogue to make him understand the hurt that it feels to drive through Clark as an African-American and get pulled over. Make him understand that we want change with those types of actions.
Giacobbe added that he believes in protests, but after they happen, a dialogue has to start to create effective change.

I believe in peaceful protests, and I want to say it right now, Black Lives Matter, Giacobbe said. That should not be a hard thing for any elected official to say. We have to start understanding why people may not have the same views as us.

Parisse Dawkins, a protester who spoke at the event, shared her own experience of racial epithets being used against her while she was playing youth soccer.
I believe those who have a hard time understanding why Black people are fighting to be heard may benefit from a few lessons on racial inequality, she said. Whether you prefer books, movies, songs, or virtual classes, there are free resources available for all, and that is just a beginners guide.

Yeah, I do wonder with all the previous police-killings of unarmed Black men, what was it about Floyd that really set people off.

It's easily the pandemic. You have a situation where many people don't have jobs and you have a president who hasn't exactly done much to help keep those people without jobs happy.

Yes, its not safe to group together like that, but some things are more important than others. Its why the Grocery store was still open but not the arcades (or whatever, do we still have arcades?)...I think we can all agree that coming together to protest brutality and fight for the rights of those who can't (because they're dead), something that is actually changing the entire world, not just this country, is more important than gathering to give Trump a blowjob, right?

I'm pretty sure Trump cultist would much rather give Trump a blowjob while being brutalized by the police.

https://www.publicradiotulsa.org/post/tpd-major-police-shoot-black-americans-less-we-probably-ought

Discussing nationwide protests over the killing of George Floyd by police in Minneapolis, a white Tulsa Police Department major said Monday systemic racism in policing "just doesn't exist."

Speaking to talk radio host Pat Campbell on his podcast, TPD Maj. Travis Yates also suggested that, according to his interpretation of crime data, police should actually be shooting black Americans more frequently.

"You get this meme of, 'Blacks are shot two times, two and a half times more,' and everybody just goes, 'Oh, yeah,'" Yates said. "They're not making sense here. You have to come into contact with law enforcement for that to occur.

"If a certain group is committing more crimes, more violent crimes, and law enforcement's having to come into more contact with them, that number is going to be higher. Who in the world in their right mind would think that our shootings should be right along the U.S. Census lines? That's insanity.

"All of the research says we're shooting African-Americans about 24% less than we probably ought to be, based on the crimes being committed."
Yates expressed displeasure with the largely peaceful protests that have been taking place in big cities and small towns all over the country since Floyd's killing on May 25.

"The officer was arrested the next day. They were prosecuted, they were fired. What are you doing? What do you mean, 'justice?' Justice at this point has been done," Yates said. "Well, then it turned into systematic racism, systematic police brutality.

"This is what they're trying to say that all these changes need to come from: this is why we're protesting, this is why we're rioting. Because of systematic abuse of power and racism. That just doesn't exist."

Without evidence, Yates alleged that journalists and a group he declined to name have financial interests in lying about policing.
"Because of this money, because of the marketing, because of the slick steps they've done, they've made regular Americans believe that cops are just hunting blacks down the street and killing them," he said. "It is so mind-boggling to me, that it is so over-the-top. It's not happening, but everyone believes that it is happening."

Yates is no stranger to racial controversy. In 2016, he faced criticism for an essay in which he declared American police were "at war" and implied Black Lives Matter activists should not be allowed to visit the White House, a move that led TPD's then-chief, Chuck Jordan, to transfer Yates and express vocal disapproval and the group We The People Oklahoma to call for his resignation.

In another 2016 essay, titled "Follow Commands or Die," he assigned blame for police violence onto its victims, writing, "Would we even know where Ferguson was if Michael Brown would have simply got out of the street like the officer had asked him to do?"

In 2018, he suggested in an open letter to Tulsa Mayor G.T. Bynum that any disproportionate policing in Tulsa's black neighborhoods was a result of "fatherless homes" and allegations of racism in policing are "dangerous" and a "great scam."

TPD Capt. Richard Meulenberg said Tuesday afternoon Chief Wendell Franklin was not yet aware of Yates' remarks on the show, and Franklin would determine whether TPD condones what Yates said.

"Everybody's got a right to their opinion. Obviously, he being a major with the Tulsa Police Department, it carries some weight that he has his opinion, and we'll have to just kind of go through this. I mean, I can't speak upon the thing that he talked about here because I don't have the data. I can't refute or substantiate what it is that he said here," Meulenberg said.

Meulenberg said under TPD policy, Yates, a division commander, had latitude to communicate with the public in various forms, including through a radio show or podcast.
"Is he speaking for himself? Or is he speaking for the department? The way I interpret what he has said is that he is speaking for himself," Meulenberg said.

The Russian Foreign Ministry urged the U.S. authorities to respect Americans right for peaceful protest amid the wave of demonstrations sparked by George Floyds death.

The ministry spokeswoman, Maria Zakharova, says Moscow has taken note of the use of tear gas to disperse rallies and massive arrests of protesters in the U.S. She also pointed out numerous journalists, including Russian reporters, were hurt while covering the protests.

Moscow long has bristled at Washingtons criticism of its human rights record amid Russia-U.S. tensions. Zakharova sought to turn the tables on the U.S. by pointing to the authorities forceful response to protests.

She says its time for the U.S. to drop the mentors tone and look in the mirror, challenging the U.S. authorities to start respecting peoples rights and observing democratic standards at home.
