Video shows moments before North Miami Police shot unarmed man - GMDino - 07-20-2016 He's alive...and there's a video...so this should be pretty simple. http://wsvn.com/news/local/video-shows-moments-before-north-miami-police-shot-unarmed-man/ Quote:NORTH MIAMI, FLA. (WSVN) - A therapist who works with people with disabilities is telling his story after he said police shot him while he was trying to help his patient with autism. Video at the link. .... http://usuncut.com/news/unarmed-therapist-shot-by-police/ Quote:Kinsey was eventually taken to Jackson Memorial Hospital to be treated for his injury. RE: Video shows moments before North Miami Police shot unarmed man - Tiger Teeth - 07-20-2016 Smooth move in a serious time among LEO's and the public. It's honestly getting to the point where I, (as a white man), wouldn't want to be pulled over for a traffic stop. I understand the stress of the job, but for christ's sake the man had his arms in the air.

Being stunned by watching this video is not a feeling I ever want again. Take a step back people, get a grip on what's truly important in having a good life, and proceed only from there. RE: Video shows moments before North Miami Police shot unarmed man - NATI BENGALS - 07-21-2016 Wow. Yea killing all those cops has worked wonders. Got em totally calmed down and ready to cut every black guy they see a break. Perfect protest method to acheive these types of results. On another note... Train these. F'n cops. Were they shooting at the mentally handicap guy? And/or why in the hell are you shooting the totally cooperative non-threat in the leg?

Got em totally calmed down and ready to cut every black guy they see a break. I don't think that has anything to do with this. I can't read a cops mind, but to be jumpy there you'd think "no, that's fake" if you didn't know better. It's very sad and pathetic (fortunately the LEO was no sharp shooter!). I'm wondering if it wasn't an accidental discharge (which begs the question why your finger is on a hair trigger with the guy on the ground with his hands up). Seems like a really good guy. Going to be well compensated. RE: Video shows moments before North Miami Police shot unarmed man - michaelsean - 07-21-2016 Jesus. Thank God he lived. RE: Video shows moments before North Miami Police shot unarmed man - Millhouse - 07-21-2016 Of all the shootings by cops that have made the media rounds, this is the worst one imo and the most unjustified of them all. Just imo. Glad it was just a wound, and if I was him I would be sue the hell outta of em.

RE: Video shows moments before North Miami Police shot unarmed man - yellowxdiscipline - 07-21-2016 This is pretty cut and dry, excessive force all the way. I hope the cop who shot gets some jail time.

It was the one who shattered the one bad apple" myth by proving that not only did the shooter lie, but 5 other cops on the scene lied to protect him. And then the DA who knew they were all lying refused to prosecute or release the video that proved how the "Blue wall" works. The most common defense I read about all these bad shootings (not the ones that are justified) is that "most cops are not like that". But apparently EVERY cop will lie to protect a murderer in their ranks and many times the DA's office goes along with them.

RE: Video shows moments before North Miami Police shot unarmed man - Yojimbo - 07-22-2016 Well we can all rest easy. The police union rep has said the officer shot him to protect him from the autistic guy. So, the officer was doing his job, to protect and to serve.

Quote:The most common defense I read about all these bad shootings (not the ones that are justified) is that "most cops are not like that". But apparently EVERY cop will lie to protect a murderer in their ranks and many times the DA's office goes along with them. Because of one example? Quite the sweeping generalization counselor. I just supervised a case in which the private attorney contacted every victim and informed them that if they dropped the charges they would immediately be reimbursed financially for their losses. However, if the case went to trial they were informed they'd likely never see a dime. Based on your notably stringent standards of proof I can now logically infer that all defense attorneys are unethical human garbage right? RE: Video shows moments before North Miami Police shot unarmed man - Bengalholic - 07-22-2016 While the actions/conduct of the officer were very disturbing, his response (if accurate) was even more so... ‘Sir, why did you shoot me?’ and his words to me were, ‘I don’t know.' ![]() RE: Video shows moments before North Miami Police shot unarmed man - RICHMONDBENGAL_07 - 07-22-2016 (07-22-2016, 12:46 AM)Sociopathicsteelerfan Wrote: Wait, did you just say that one example, "shattered", an entire preconception? Do you have any idea how absurd that sounds? I have a huge amount of respect for what you do. That being said, what is your opinion on why so much of this seems to be happening? For lack of a better word it seems to me some (lEO's) are a bit more gung ho than is needed. I don't know you personally, but I do know you through these boards and you seem like the kind of officer that I preferred pulled me over. That also being said, I've encountered some real D-bag officers. If I remember correctly you were in the military, so was I. And I remember a lot of guys that were idiots that I wouldn't trust with a potato gun (I think that was a movie quote but can't remember which one) Any way my point is I understand your defensive position for LEO's, but something has to give. What is a good start?

Actually, that's why I think it was an accidental discharge. Goes back to proper procedure, which likely wasn't followed.

And don't get me wrong, I get that the situation can create variables which I have never had to deal with, but I think that this is why having someone take a shot like that where it is their primary function might be good. But second of all, they were going to shoot an autistic person with a toy. Now, yeah, I get that they can think it's a weapon. I was just talking to a cop the other day that almost shot a suspect for pulling out a cell phone because the call was someone threatening people with a gun and it was dark. Things can be mistaken for a weapon. But the guy is trying to shout that it is a toy truck, the person is autistic, and he is a caregiver. Bad decisions all around. And I know you aren't necessarily condoning what happened, I had just avoided posting until now and needed to rant a little. I'm not going to sit here and say charges need to be pressed because there is more to that then we have the information on, but there needs to be disciplinary action. Maybe not even towards the shooter, but to whoever gave that order.

Neither of these people were a threat to shoot or kill an officer. The use of a weapon was wrong. Discipline should be passed on from the shooter up to the person who signed off on the shooters training. It won't be. It will be an "accident" and we'll go right back to nothing ever happened.
