The point being, if it had been handled differently, there's a chance he WOULDN'T have gone after them with the knife.And how were they to give him that shot? With a blow dart as he comes at them with a knife?According to the family's lawyers (yeah, I know, but there is probably some truth in it) he was bipolar, in crisis, the family had called for an ambulance, the police arrived first. Police had already been there earlier in the day, but it's not known if the 2 officers who responded knew that, or even that it was a mh call. Maybe dispatch needs to be a little more detailed as the cops drive to the scene? When they arrived he was waving the knife around wildly, not fixing to attack anyone. No one had been hurt. If you've got feet, it's not THAT hard to stay out of the way. Neighbors were telling him to drop the knife. Cops pointing guns at him triggered him further and in his crazed superman state, he lunged. Did they have to get out of the cruiser with guns drawn when he was that far away? Did that have to be their first response?
Whatever family member called 911 has got to feel like a piece of shit about now. But how else do you get the ambulance there? He needed a nice shot of thorazine, not the shots he got.
The changes some departments around the country have made to include more mh training or to bring mh professionals onboard for these kind of calls makes a lot of sense to deal with cases like this.
Bipolar people in crisis are not reasonable. I've dealt with some (fortunately none armed, but I've had to duck a few times).

Perhaps we should arm the police like wild life folks. A tranquilizer gun, to shoot huge drug darts into people from a safe distance.And how were they to give him that shot?

They were called because of his behavior threatening with a knife. Ever known anyone with manic depression that is off the walls manic? No amount of reasoning works. I know. I was almost killed by one.The point being, if it had been handled differently, there's a chance he WOULDN'T have gone after them with the knife.And how were they to give him that shot?

If only those police officers had been trained in — gymkata!
Funny. I never lived anywhere near a S Hole. However I've traveled through many of them.All is well until there are a large number of blacks living in an area. Things go down hill faster the more of them that there are.It was the capital of this country once.The neighborhood where the police incident was in West Philly. The breaking into stores was in the Lower Northeast part of the city. Was it a black neighborhood? And if it was, will they build/reopen there again?The retarded mayor said its a 9pm curfew for Philly tonight. No one is taking that jackass seriously
West Philly yes. The other area I dont know because I never had a reason to go there
How's Andy Dalton doing? The NFC East winner will be 6-10.......BAWWWHAHA
Prove me wrong.
Perfect for the results of Fetal Alcohol Syndrome in the Med School books.I think it's the unevenness of the weapons. One guy with a knife, several cops with loaded guns. IF the domestic abuser hadn't been shot, had reached the cops, what would have happened? He would have been overwhelmed and taken down, put in the back of a cruiser and taken to jail. Would he really have been able to stab one of them to death first when they all saw him coming and were prepared? I dunno. But I think that's where the complaint probably lies.
So the cops were supposed to pull out a knife to make things fair?
I know if someone were to come at me with a knife I'm gonna shoot em without hesitation.
Better hope you are not in a dem run shithole...the perp is not black...or you will go to jail.

Key for a white man to be safe in the ghettos is always wear a suit with a gray or charcoal long coat. Always have a semi stern look on your face. But I wouldn't try it in Philly these daya.........BAWWWWHAHA!!!
It is always best to do your work before noon. Noon is 5am in Ghetto Time....BAWWWWHAHA!!!,
“Yeeeeah dog. Deez niggas done blew dis (something babble) out, dog”
That’s some thoughtful commentary.
On the topic of explosives being found... where the hell would people get dynamite from? Do they still use that in demolitions? Or was it something else they just called dynamite?
I’m fairly certain people “protesting against police brutality aren’t dynamiting ATMS. That is just theft under the cover of the “protests”. Lets be honest... it’s not protesting, it’s rioting. Now we have people blowing shit up. I’d be interested if they actually arrest anyone in connection to the explosives. I’m curious as to who they are, who they are affiliated with, etc.
Let’s hope the stick to blowing up atms. If somebody tosses a stick of dynamite into a police line, or a crowd, or into a restaurant, it’s going to be tragic.
Why are you such a bummer for???The riots and rioters have primarily been white supremacists, you ready to stop blaming BLM?I respect that.A PERSON WITH A KNIFE IS JUST AS DEADLY AS A PERSON WITH A GUN.
Police are trained to shoot these people as they can travel 21 feet in the time it takes to draw and fire your weapon. IF you want to die, you can play nice but that blade is just as deadly as a bullet.
Damn straight.
Cops have families to get home to after a shift at work, just like everyone else does.
Do you "respect that" enough to denounce the Riots and the rioters?
Biden and Kamal Toe don't

It’s hard to wake up before noon when you had a hard nights work that night. And by “work” I mean smoking shitty weed, drinking fo’teez, bussin’ some hoes, dodging baby momma and child support, watching tv, robbing and stealing anything not nailed down, etc.
