Black lives matter! Even when they shoot at cops!

The Richmond police chief promised a thorough investigation after a black man was killed in a shootout with a white officer who was wounded in the exchange of gunfire.

Police Chief Alfred Durham faced an angry crowd of about three dozen people, most of them black, at the shooting scene on Wednesday night and urged them to be patient while authorities investigate. The crowd demanded answers and questioned whether police used too much force.

On Wednesday afternoon, officers responded to a report of an armed man in an area west of downtown, police said. Two officers approached the man, who fled. Police chased him, and shots were fired by police and the suspect. Durham could not say who shot first and how many shots were fired.

Poor guy. He never hurt nobody. He was on his way to his first day of college. He had such a nice smile and would make everyone around him laugh.

If you shoot at a cop....black or white you get what you deserve.

Yes...the investigation should be quick in a way.

 

Did the guy shoot first...or raise his weapon at the cops prompting them to fire.

More basic than that, why was he brandishing a weapon in the first place?

It confuses me as to why the protestors would be upset over this. Yes a black guy was killed by a white officer. However, said black guy was shooting at the officer. With all that has gone on with the black lives matter stuff I doubt this officer was just firing at him just for the hell of it. Cops are having to tiptoe the line now. This is a prime example of how this thing has gotten out of hand. The guy could rob a bank, start shooting where innocent civilians are, get killed in the shoot out by police, and still have people claim he did nothing wrong and that the cop was being racist.

Maybe, but do we want police tactics to be shoot anyone with a gun? Even if they are not posing a threat to anyone.

Yahoo changes their articles and keeps the same URL. Notice how my quote now differs from the beginning of the story.

 

They also updated to say that the wounded officer is black, not white.

Read the original yes...or from somewhere else.

Just curious if you have a point or are trying to play "gotcha".

Not at all. Just wondering if you were questioning the legitimacy of the shooting based on the same information I read. I had no idea they were updating the article on the fly. I assume you've read the updated article. Are you comfortable saying the shooting was justified at this point?

From the little I have seen, it appears so...but information may change that.
