Walter Scott MURDERED in Cold Blood by a Killer Cop

[Matt G]

When I was in high school we got caught whipping donuts in a field. Cop asked if I had any weapons and I hand him my knife. Looking at it now, that was pretty stupid because "what if" I was a threat? He should have shot me by some of y'all reasoning. Anyways, after I handed him my knife, one of the guys that I was with decides to take off running. I panicked and took off as well. Mind you I was an honors student who had never had a run in with the law prior to that, and my family was friends with several people in law enforcement. In short, I respected cops and was taught to always obey an order from an officer. In that one moment, I panicked and all of that preaching went out the window. I didn't make it a few steps before I was caught. I'm glad that cop wasn't allowed to be judge, jury, and executioner just because I MAY HAVE been doing something dangerous......

Then W calls anyone who thinks it an absurd idea that a cop has the right to execute people for running from a cop (a misdemeanor offence RS 14:108.1), a liberal.......... So you think one low level government employee should have that much power? That's mighty liberal of you. Conservatives believe in small limited government with checks and balances, but to H E L L with facts, right? Another liberal trait I may add.

There are justifiable reasons to shoot a person in the back. That person would have to be armed though. One could argue the fact that the armed person was not fleeing, but positioning themselves to reengage. Justifiable reasons for shooting an unarmed person in the back? Snatching my kid and running. That would be the only one I could see. There is another case in Lafayette where someone witnessed a person in their house from across the street, walked over, and shot the person while they were fleeing their house. They were arrested and charged with the homicide. This officer is going to spend a while in prison for his mistake, and rightfully so.

This. As a conservative; a real, small government- follow the constitution conservative, I have to scratch my head when I see or hear people who fancy themselves conservative promoting a police state, advocating for the militarization of police and wanting to forego due process as guaranteed by the constitution.

The guy was stupid for running, the cop is a murderer for shooting him in the back.
