Yeah, that's a tough one. If the initial report is true and that's how it went down, then I'd have to side with the cops as well.  Sadly, and we can thank 400+ years of inequality for this, people are still going to ask "what if the guy was white?" and they're not wrong for that either.

In this case, the answer is, you have a dead white guy.

i agree with the skin color part...cops are much more apt to go HAM on a brother

but training and procedure needs to be changed big time...if you have an individual who is solo and cant hurt anyone else then maybe back the farg up barricade yourselves behind your cars and have a conversation to see where it plays out...you dont always need to run up on someone with biscuits out ready to blaze

i dont know how that would have worked in this particular case as i dont know the details outside of hearing a couples seconds about it on radio this morning but it definitely could have been done in the case of the carolina shooting and many many others

In most cases I'd agree.  If dude was white, he'd get shot like 99x out of 100. But the black dude would get shot 100/100.

That said, I still think (based on current info available) that the cops were justified in using deadly force. Like I said, the sad part is that race will still be brought into it because these are situations that black men don't walk away from and have never walked away from.

Diomedes

It is true, of course, that black men get shot more readily.  Not arguing otherwise.

I was led to believe that BLM and black folks only shot cops.

Maybe the cops were black?  I'll bet you never even considered that, did you, Tex?

he said he went to the high school football game to rage about all the BLM national anthem protests and brought a confederate flag?

White dude offed two cops in Iowa apparently over a confederate flag argument.

Being from Iowa and all I can see why he wants to honor his southern heritage

Lol. Let's say we add in the number of confederate soldiers that died to preserve slavery.  Also, since American freedom most certainly has not been attacked since the CRM, I think it's safe to say that no white American soldiers were fighting in any war prior to the CRM so that black people could be free.
