Phoenix police shoot ANOTHER man 6/12/18

Posted 06-13-2018 at 07:05 AM by AndyDwyer480


It seems as if it is happening more and more frequent. Yesterday there was a homeless man being chased off of a hotel property for trespassing because he was visibly homeless. No shirt no shoes and just walking around in the Arizona desert heat.

There’s a video of a police officer walking behind him and probably telling him to stop but we can’t hear that. But we can see is the police officer just decides to shoot him because he’s tired of chasing him on foot at a slow pace.


What’s the excuse for this one? Because the man was homeless? Because he was so mentally to ranged that he didn’t understand what was being said to him? What’s the excuse for shooting him with a gun?

The police say they use the Taser but it did not work. My concern is if the man was an armed why couldn’t five of them jump on him to take him to the ground instead of shooting him with a gun? Our Police Department has prove that they don’t mind beating people up I would rather see someone get tackled than shot, wouldn’t you?

Maybe it’s the heat. Maybe the cops that signed up to be cops in the desert can’t really take being cops in the desert. And that’s OK. They should find other lines of work.

If anyone wonders why I am so adamant about these police shootings, it’s because you and I cannot do these things to people and get away with them.

You know the law states if someone breaks in your house, you can only shoot them if they are posing a threat to you in your home. They can’t run out of the house and you chased him down the street and shoot them and it still justified. So what’s the difference?[/quote]
