SUCK IT!
It was a foregone conclusion. I told you a week ago it would not guilty. Have I EVER steered you wrong?
Just remember, "not guilty" is not a declaration of innocence.
What is the difference between these cases?
(2012) George Zimmerman followed an unarmed young man for no valid reason,
started a fight with him, and ended up shooting him dead. Acquitted.
Was the victims given unlawful instructions by the vigilante that were not followed?
Post by Tim Norfolk(2014) Tamir Rice was playing with a toy gun in a park, and was shot dead by a police officer less than
2 seconds after he arrived on the scene. The officer was fired, but suffered no legal consequences.
Was the victim given instructions by the police officer that were not followed?
Post by Tim Norfolk(2014) John Crawford was holding a pellet gun at a display in Walmart. Police arrived, and shot him
dead immediately. No charges filed.
Was the victim given instructions by the police officer that were not followed?
Post by Tim Norfolk(2020) Kyle Rittenhouse took a gun illegally across state lines to counter protesters.
He ended up shooting three people. Two were unarmed, and died. Acquitted of all charges.
Were the victims given unlawful instructions by the vigilante that were not followed?

Post by Tim NorfolkI have seen the recordings in the Tamir Rice case. One officer shouted an command, and shot
before the kid had time to respond.
Yea, I vaguely remember this. I also remember that videos and descriptions were from a, “Cops
are always killing black people and are always wrong,” perspective, like this one; omitting
extenuating circumstance.
When I finally got the full story; I seem to remember the cops were called for an “Active
Shooter;” or “Man with a gun,” call. So the cops didn’t just wander upon a situation where a
kid or young adult was holding something that could be considered a real gun and might be
playing. The cops were called. In these types of calls we’re always on alert and always watching
for a Cop Ambush.
Post by Tim NorfolkThat officer was judged too emotionally unstable to serve in another department.
I hadn’t heard that; but don’t trust it, considering the source. Who ‘judged him too emotionally
unstable?’ And if he was, how could he still be on the force; because whenever we were evaluated
by a shrink; a diagnosis like this was immediately followed by, “You are no longer an officer.” (It
happened to two of my friends after shootings).
And I don’t remember what was noted about when the officers arrived as to what they said and
what the person with the gun did.

From all these recent shooting, it appears the vast majority of ‘Resisting Arrest’ and ‘Not following
the instructions of the authorities’ (police officer); seem to indicate a need for school curriculum
to include additional education and training.
Along with, “Looking both ways before crossing the streets,” should be; “The police officer is the
authority in any situation and his instructions are to be followed to the letter.” Plus the reasons
a police officer would request a person to show their hands, et cetera.
