its at ~12:50 if embedding doesnt work right

[Truth]

oya they kill the dog that was unleashed on him too

[Truth]

88 bullets jesus fuck overkill !~

[Diggles]

GOD DAMN IT GOD FUCKING DAMN IT HOLD

[Darwoth]

to bad the dog got hit =/

as for the shitbag fuck him.

[Truth]

yea it was justified, an aggressive movement right after he made threats of shooting the cops

[Nuk3Afr1ca]

They told him to drop the gun like 100 times. He responds with "Fuck it, come get me, fuck ya'll", "Suck my dick", "Ya'll think I'm playin", "I'd rather die right here", and said he was going to try and shoot the cops. It took them an entire 12 minutes before they shot him.

He's lucky he didn't get shot 4000 times within 30 seconds of the video opening.

[Truth]

tho 88 bullets is like 6+ cops unloading their entire magazines, it actually really is a bit excessive

[Nuk3Afr1ca]

Then it turns out he's on parole for murder already.

[Slathar]

white trash detected

[Korisek]

That wasn't even a gun in his hand, was it?

[Truth]

No it was like a sandal or something

[Nuk3Afr1ca]

white trash detected

Lol, he beat up some girl, plus he's on parole for murder already, the cops come, he tells the cops he's going to shoot them, it's obviously everyone else's fault except himself!

[Truth]

The final move doesn't look like suicide to me just stupidity.

for the most part cops are the worst marksmen around, particularly in urban areas where their experience with firearms amounts to nothing more than qualifying at 15 feet with 2 mags every year.

between that and the shoot till it stops moving training that any worth a shit tactical instruction course hammers in the average cop will blow his entire mag in a volley once the shooting starts (which is why most of the cops in the north hollywood shootout ran out of ammo within minutes of the shooting beginning)

if they fire 88 times thats typical, if they actually hit him 88 times they are probably the straightest shooting cops within 300 miles.

[MrSparkle001]

I feel bad for the dog, but not for that idiot. He flat out told them he was gonna shoot.

[Odonk]

another one bites the dust.. poor dog tho

[Mouse]

I would swap out that guy on the porch for any of you Gung Ho Killem All Middle American trash in a minute. Get fucked you racists shit dickers.

[relapsee69]

so many non lethal weapons in the inventory these days shit could of been handled with a bit of common sense.

yeah i suppose the cops could have closed to within 20 feet across open ground so they could mace,taze or beanbag a guy they thought was armed instead of staying behind cover so as to avoid potentially getting their head blown off by a lowlife.

[Diggles]

why doesnt the police force have rubber sniper rounds? one shot to the crotch and gg

[Klath]

Beanbag rounds are plenty effective up to 50-60 feet. All the more so when you've got more than one person firing them.

It looks to me like this was a fuck-up due to incompetence and poor training. They wouldn't have sent the dog in if they planned to open fire. Someone was a bit too jumpy and got trigger-happy.

[Darwoth]

because rubber wont grip the lans and grooves in the barrel, which means rubber rounds have to be shot out of a shotgun and have a short range.

course even if they had some kind of incapacitating laser that was accirate from 3 miles it is better to shoot him 88 times so that the taxpayers do not have to waste 70 grand a year storing him for the next 50.

[Darwoth]

effective yeah, accurate no.

50 - 60 feet is approximately 20 yards.

a typical handgun is accurate to anyone trying to hit what their shooting to 50 yards, i can hit paper plates all day long at 100 with my glock 17, i sure as fuck would not risk getting shot and walk across a wide open space to get within range of my beanbag vs someone that purporetdly has the ability to kill me at twice the range.

real life is not call of duty, you dont respawn 15 seconds later.

no, instead i would sit behind the car for 12 minutes until he made a move then shoot him like everybody in the video did.

[bonehand]

Made me sick when they shot the dog....the dude? I don't give a shit about him, he's some crackhead just like my neighbors. The dog was just doing what it was trained to do, and they shot anyway.

[Diggles]

yeah, idc what it means to me but I actually cared for the dog

when the black guy was kinda squirming around after the volley I say just pop a cap in his head and end it, at least

[Klath]

effective yeah, accurate no.
Generally, the longer the barrel the better the accuracy. A 12 gauge with an 18 inch barrel firing beanbags is very accurate at 50 feet and effective up to about 75.

[Klath]

Here's a link to the Wikipedia entry for the incident.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deandre_Brunston

[Diggles]

Adding to the controversy of this shooting is the disparity in medical treatment -- the wounded police dog received an emergency helicopter airlift from the scene to a veterinary center (where it died later) -- while Brunston, who was alive and moving after being shot 22 times, was left bleeding to death on the concrete steps, leading to allegations of Brunston receiving sub-par treatment as compared to the dog

[Doors]

Thats a damn shame that dog died.

[dcapotos]

Why would they send the dog like that, just a dumb move, or is that protocol?

[GETINMYVAN]

If a situation escalates to the point where lethal force is involved police are trained to completely empty their magazines. The guy is a shit head, and got what he deserved. If you were a cop and someone pulled a gun on you, are you going to shoot him once and hope he decides to give it up, or are you going to unload everything you've got in the interest of self preservation?

[Diggles]

The wiki said that they had a K-9 unit who refused to release the dog because it was against protocol, so they sent him away and brought in a rookie who just followed orders.

he didn't have a gun and the police knew it

That's pretty fucked up, but then again so is our society in general.

[XgrimX]

Yeah they could have handled the situation a little differently but what the fuck do you expect when he throws out a gun and starts to shoot.

People want to go home to see their wife and kids- This dumbass bit the bullet literally and really? who gives a fuck. Sounds harsh but I work in a hospital and see people die on a daily basis who want to live.- This idiot didn't care about his own life. He said it multiple times "shoot me" "shoot me".
This is natural selection at it's finest.- Horray
Some of you may troll me but I guess im a cold-hearted bastard

[Klath]

It wasn't a gun it was a sandal (and it definitely wasn't shooting) and he dropped it when the dog came for him. If they hadn't been so trigger-happy, that would have been the end of it.

[XgrimX]

If you were the police- would you take that type of chance? I think not. Given the same situation you would have done the same thing.

[dcapotos]

Nah, just a little jaded; goes with the job I hear. It's how you cope.

[Klath]

If you were the police- would you take that type of chance? I think not. Given the same situation you would have done the same thing.

If you're going to send in the dog then let the dog do what it was trained to do. It did. Hell, it even worked -- the guy dropped his sandal. Up to this point they had a win on their hands. Sadly, some pants-pisser couldn't control himself and opened fire and killed the only competent one on the scene -- the dog.

Listen to them talk after the shooting -- they know damn well they fucked up. I have no pity for police who are incompetent. If they don't have the balls to be professional and do the job right then they shouldn't have joined the force. I expect criminals to be dumb-asses. I expect the police to be better and given the settlement it appears the courts expect them to be better as well.

[Truth]

He had been holed up claiming he had a gun, was wanted for murder, and would go down by suicide by cop. Then when they released the dog he jerkily and hastily pulls his hand out toward the cops and threw the sandal. They didn't know it wasn't a gun.

After threatening to shoot at the cops for 12 straight minutes, the guy deserves a Darwin award for doing something so stupid.

[Bazia]

Shouldn't have challenged and threatened the police who had guns drawn.

They made a mistake but it's his fault for pretending to be armed and making threats.

They are negligent but in reality he caused his death by being a fucking retard.

[Kassel]

Thats what you get for telling the police you will shoot them. Does not get much dummer than that

[Tiggles]

ITT two animals being shot.

[Kruel]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deandre_Brunston

The family got nearly half a million. Fuck that kid, put yourself in those officers shoes.. they are there to do a job.. protect people from dumbasses like this kid. That kid made his own problems in life, the officers want to live to go home to there families. That town is known for being gang ridden retards like this kid. If this is the best that inner city people have as police brutality then they are all retarded.

If someone came into my house and was hungry practically starving to death, in middle of the night. I am getting my gun. Then if this person made a threat against me i would shoot no hesitation. That was suicide by police imo.

[Truth]

someone make animated gif of this video

[Matador]

Just because the guy was scum/retarded doesn't make the small-man-syndrome suffering cop a better person.

The incident is unfortunate, but there is no excuse for the guy's standoff. The lesson should be - expect cops to shoot you if you tell them you have a gun, whether or not its a shoe, and especially if you're black

The cops looked like a quad kiter on double xp weekend, but, it was only single xp weekend, obviously, based on the judges' ruling to reward money for overkill.

[Truth]

I literally never side with authority, but this was blatantly retarded

[EnnoiaII]

It wasn't 88 bullets. The moron who made the video said it was '88' because the number 88 has some significance to white supremacists. As for the kid getting shot...he should have put down the fucking gun the first time a squad of policemen with semi-automatic weapons fucking told him to. Cops in Compton have the itchiest trigger fingers in the world because of the shit they have to deal with on a daily basis out there.

[Truth]

It was actually 81. 22 hit him, unknown# hit the dog

shit they don't have to deal with, more like. Shit such as due process or any consequence whatsoever for murdering a black person in cold blood.

[Supreme]

I am pretty sure it is a KNOWN fact that you dont fuck with the police...especially in Los Angeles.

Talk shit, threaten the police and then pull out a item that you claim to be a weapon will result in you getting shot...ANYWHERE.

[Hottbiscuits Dreadmuffin]

shit they don't have to deal with, more like. Shit such as due process or any consequence whatsoever for murdering a black person in cold blood.

He said he had a handgun. He said he'd shoot them and the dogs. He was uncooperative with the police and was unstable.

The dogs are released as promised and the guy moves his gun hand out in a movement similar to shooting, but ends up throwing the gun. By then the police are firing.

Everyone has 20/20 hindsight, but look at it from the perspective of the police. It's an armed man threatening to shoot you, your coworkers and your police dogs. The man makes a quick move like that and what were they supposed to do? Wait and see who he's going to aim at first?

Color doesn't matter. This guy could have been a 40 year old white guy in an Armani suit on the steps of his Beverly Hills mansion and he still would have been gunned down if he acted suspicious, threatened to shoot and then made a jerky move that looked like a gun draw like the man in the video did.

[azeth]

hey geniuses, 15 shots fired = 7-8 cops (normal) x2 shots a piece.

excessive nothing, see ya punk.

[Truth]

where are you getting 15?

[jarshale]

where are you getting 15?

Wondering this too. The guy alone was shot 22 times, not counting the rounds that hit the house and the dog

[azeth]

i counted 15 shots in reaction to him gesturing with whatever was in his hand. who cares how many hit the house or were discharged seconds afterward.

[Tasslehofp99]

I'd have shot him too.
