Great Replacement Update / France: Cop Shoots Muslim George Floyd Who Resisted Arrest, Muslims Burn Cities, Macron Trembles

...and all of his crimes render him much less than simply a "child gunned down by racist cops".
There is no excusing the violence committed around this incident. There is no other than propaganda value in pretending other than all this is vicious, mindless and ungrateful to a country that has given so much to minorities.
Alleged crimes.
 
Alleged crimes.
He had a criminal record, including previous things such as false license plates and resisting arrest. No "angel", this one. "Raised" by a single mother, who obviously had no idea what her underaged son was doing out in the wee hours.
 
The cop overreacted in a context that is not so overtly "cut and dried". What the videos don't show is what led up to the policeman pulling his gun.
There are certain elements that are clear and should be taken well into account.
The driver was seventeen, thus not licensed to drive that vehicle in France. The infraction is evident. He is behind the wheel of something with power and weight that can easily cause damage, injury and even death.
He is at a stop, confronted by at least two officers, one leaning against the car with a pistol aimed at him. Yet, he begins to pull away nevertheless. What person in his right mind in such a situation would do such a thing? Obviously, he was not in "normal mental condition", for whatever causes. Thus, he presented a real and present danger on the roads. That does not justify a death sentence, but it does bring the confrontation more into focus.
Where was this individual educated that he would comport himself this way? Where were his parents when he was gallivanting around illegally in a car? Whose car was it?
Headlines that say "Police shoot teenager" are failing to state things honestly on a number of levels. A person might even call it propaganda.
Any reporting that fails to condemn absolutely the violence that is being committed, using this incident as an excuse, also fails the test of genuine honesty.
The policeman should not have shot the guy. The President of France should have kept his mouth shut, at least until facts were clearly stated to the public. The press should have never developed the present excuse of, and even encouragement of, rioting aimlessly and mindlessly whenever the least occurrence arises. It certainly should not excuse it now.
Are you saying, what person in their right mind would do such a thing as pull away from the cops, or what person in their right mind would shoot someone pulling away from the cops? If it's the first, you can find video after video after video after video of people doing just that, pulling away from cops illegally. If your point is the latter, here in the US, when someone pulls away before the encounter is finished, the cop gets in his car and performs the PIT maneuver to stop them and then once out of the car, pulls the firearm on the civilian and will indeed shoot them if they don't cooperate and become threatening.
