I like how the world complains about hearing about America all the time...then their media is showing off -our- news instead of local national news.
This. The guy just robbed a store & assaulted the shopkeeper. It's likely he freaked out when the cop drove by, and went at him to save himself jailtime.
Also want to point out that [some] african-americans will play the race card any time a white man kills a black man, even if it's in self-defense, word goes around the streets that it was a cold-blooded murder of racism and evil.
Like the cop who encouraged body cams on all officers. He said he pulled up and people said his men charged in and shot a guy in his bedroom for no reason. Then the videos came out and showed the guy had a knife and was threatening a woman.
My city a couple years ago, cops told a guy to put his hands up once they had him surrounded(forgot what he did to draw such attention), and to get down. He just walks forward and sticks his hand into his pocket, and they shoot him. The people filming it from their front porch go 'omg they killed him, he didn't do nuffinnn'.
