Civil rights probe launched after Ga. trooper charged with murder

It keeps happening!! White cop shoot unarmed black man under questionable circumstances. This happened over a week again and has scarcely gotten any press! Why ?

Where is the outrage? The only difference between this murder and that of George Floyd is that there is no third party video of it,

Civil rights probe launched after Ga. trooper charged with murder, attorney says

The GBI has charged a Georgia State Patrol trooper with murder in a driver’s death, and the victim’s family attorney says a federal civil rights investigation has been launched.

Authorities have said the shooting took place after Thompson attempted to stop a Nissan Sentra for a broken taillight on Stoney Pond Road in Screven County.

After a brief chase down several county roads, the trooper initiated a PIT maneuver, and the car came to a stop in a ditch, the GBI said. The trooper fired one round, fatally striking Lewis.

In an incident report, Thompson wrote that he shot Lewis in the forehead because he thought Lewis was going to run him over.

Can someone please explain how the hell this guy could run over the cop when his car was in a ditch?
 
The officer was fired and then charged with murder. I imagine the investigation will lead to others losing their jobs and there will be a huge settlement so the processing is working unlike it once did in the past.

So there is nothing to protest over. It's not really a major story when the system works. It is when it doesn't.
 
we laugh at these stories...99% of the time they are bullshit
..there is no problem of police killing people

This cop has a history of racial profiling . He ran him off the road for fucking tail light violation. How many whites have been killed by cops under similar circumstances?

Here's my take on this. In the not so distant past, my stance on the shooting of an unarmed criminal, was, "that's sad and I hope there is justice." My stance on this since George Floyd has become, "so what!" Most of the time there is a negative encounter between law enforcement and a black criminal, it is.....BECAUSE THEY ARE RESISTING ARREST! Should the criminal be shot for resisting arrest? If they are habitual criminals, in and out of jails and prison, over and over, I say, hell yes! Those individuals are a waste of humanity that just keep victimizing the law-abiding public and don't deserve to be out in society. They should be either permanently incarcerated or, DEAD!
The difference between when a white criminal, versus a black criminal, is arrested or shot, is that the community doesn't side with the white criminal and is glad to see him or her get put away, whereas in the case of the black criminal, the Democrat run cities feed the blacks the lying rhetoric that they are victims so long, that they believe the B.S. and think that gives them the right to commit crimes, which they don't. If you're black and feel it is the fault of "the system," well, the systems are RUN LOCALLY, NOT FEDERALLY! If you keep voting for local politicians that keep insisting that you are victims and not capable of solving your personal situations and must be handed stipends, that reflects poorly on you. It is the "bigotry of low-expectations" by your politicians.

There is also no source cited for your Gish Gallop but here is something.....

According to a Washington Post analysis, black Americans are disproportionately affected by police violence across the United States. The data refers specifically to police shootings and it relies primarily on news accounts, social media postings and police reports. Since January 01, 2015, 4,728 people have died in police shootings and around half, 2,385, were white. 1,252 were black, 877 were Hispanic and 214 were from other racial groups. As a share of the population, however, things are very different. Black Americans account for less than 13% of the U.S. population but the rate at which they are shot and killed by police is more than twice as high as the rate for white Americans.
 
Deadly force is often used against perps who use their vehicles as a weapon.

The Investigation will either show that was the case and the LEO will be vindicated or the investigation may show the the perp was not using his vehicle as a weapon and the LEO was not justified.

Either way it seems this was just another perp who earned himself a Darwin Award.
 
He "allegedly didn't stop. We don't know if that is true, and if so why. It was a rural road. He may have feared for his life
He didn't stop because he's a thug.

That's a given.

Now whether or not he was able to use his vehicle as a weapon will be the deciding factor in this case.

He was a thug?? How the hell do you know that? What is the evidence? But regardless, that in itself does not justify shooting in the fucking head!
