What difference does it make that Blake had an outstanding warrant? Even had they known, seven bullets to the back wasn't required in order to arrest him on that warrant.

Neither George Floyd nor Rayshard Brooks was "violently resisting arrest." Jacob Blake wasn't, either. Please cite your source.

What I still want to know is..........why did the officer shoot him in the back? What made this officer do that?

Wasn't George Floyd resisting? From the video, it sure looked like it. The other dude wouldn't listen to officers orders and walked away from them. What was his problem? He wasn't physically resisting, but was resisting by walking away.

Rockr, your arguments use specious reasoning at best, foolish ignorance at worst.

No. George Floyd was NOT resisting. Go back and watch the videos with the sound ON. And Blake may have been walking away. Seven shots to the back weren't required to stop him.

I give up. Trying to reason with you is like trying to reason with a 4-year-old.

I'm done.

Ok, GeorgiaXplant, I've got the perfect solution: No matter what a black person does, police should leave them alone. Let them spit on officers, cuss at officers, throw bottles, etc., etc.. Let them shoot/kill someone and never get arrested.

IOW, absolutely no laws for blacks! That would solve the problem!

And, even though there are many, many whites in poverty also, have the government give money to the black neighborhoods. As much money as they want.

Actually, that sounds like just what they want .

It seems most folks want the police to take a 'softer' approach ? I say, take an even tougher approach, maybe then they will learn to behave ?

If they see their fellow street thugs [yes I'm talking white as well] being shot dead in the street , and / or heading to old sparky in 30 days after undisputed conviction ......... maybe that'll do the trick ?
