Question: if the girl that called was the girl with the knife on her own property and was being harassed or physically hit before the camera was on and that's why she called, wouldn't she be justified in protecting herself from her assailants with a knife on her own property in a stand your ground state?
I'm confused, if this was a homeowner with a gun with violent thug trespassers on their property I wouldn't want the police shooting him or her because they were defending themselves.
However, since I don't know what happened before hand it looks like a justified shooting to save pink girls life and either way if the cop was just getting there he wouldn't have known who was who and would still be justified when seeing someone attacked with a knife.
I'm not sure but don't blame the cop here at all. These "neighborhoods" are scummy.
I dont know all the facts but I gleaned from the Twitter comments the girl with the knife called the cops so we have to find out why she had that knife out. What were the others doing before cops got there...I'll bet more footage comes out from locals. Either way I'm not sure we know enough facts yet? Or if what I read is real. Who knows anymore. This is the kind of evil and sickness in the culture around us I'm trying to now tune out as much as possible and it is what drove me back to God 4 years ago.
Ding ding ding, you win. Police are 90% ignorant when approaching a new scene, hence NEW crime scene. They could have about 10 seconds to investigate, maybe less in extreme cases. It is up to the gun owner/knife wielder to be responsible in front of law enforcement. We need to make their job as easy as possible. Make it to where they CANNOT perceive you as a threat.
Step 1 when deploying any weapon, always be one step ahead of everyone around you. Know your surroundings, know your risks.
Step 2 never lose composure. Eliminate emotions.
I. E. Do not lash out at someone with a knife in front of law enforcement, re: emotions.
Unfortunate Fact: You may be perceived as a threat at any moment by anyone or any law enforcement if you have a weapon drawn.
