Damian Lamar Daniels. His life mattered, and when we needed mental health support the most, he had to face men with guns and only 8 hours of mental health training. We cannot let this happen again to our comrades, especially to combat veterans.

Murdered? The ironic thing is that people might be murdered in the aftermath of outrageous unfounded charges directed against the Police by the angry anarchists on the left. Maybe that's what they want.

This is why we need to replace some police officers with mental health professionals.

I do wonder where his family was or if he had one,,

he was killed not murdered,,,murder implies intent which I highly doubt was their plan,,,

AGREED! we also need SNICC (Societal Non-Violent Integration Coordinating Committees)

Murdered?

did i stutter?

No, but that wasn't murder. There's no way to know if a mental health professional would have made any difference, but it's really easy to bitch about the cops from the cheap seats, isn't it? Hindsight being 20-20 and all.

Perfect example of why BLM is wrong.

It's not hindsight. We see this happen over and over and change nothing. If something isn't working you work to change it.

"The struggle continued as Daniels reached for his own gun. Images released by the Sheriff’s Office showed deputies with their hands on the pistol and Daniels gripping the gun beneath his red shirt.

In that struggle, Salazar said the deputies were “pleading” with him to let go of the gun.


“It was very clear they were in a fight for their lives,” Salazar said.


Body camera footage of the encounter, which lasted more than 30 minutes, showed Daniels was carrying a Glock Model 22 .40-caliber pistol. He also had a second magazine and a knife."

Sure doesn't sound like a murder to me.

The glock was one of the new fangled "mostly peaceful" models.

It also doesn't sound like the veteran was getting the help he should have got. If we can't afford to take care of our veterans we don't deserve a military.

It isn't the job of the police to give mental health treatment. Police were called to deal with an armed suspect who was putting people in fear, they must think of their safety and the safety of by-standers first.

If you are interested in getting better mental health treatment for veterans (or non-veterans), you need to speak to your elected legislator, not the police.

It was a mental health call. I said we need fewer cops and more mental health experts to deal with mental health calls. Did you not read that?

I'm not frightened. Most people I know aren't frightened, despite the fact that we're told repeatedly that we should be frightened.

The only thing that we need to unite behind is that we are all Americans and, as such, we need to live our lives as we see fit and not tell others how to live theirs.

I suggest that you send a mental health worker to deal with the armed suspect and let police do other work.
