If you're an unarmed man who's charging some intoxicated lunatic ... that is waving a gun at a crowd of people, that is definitely self-defense, shooting an unarmed person that tried to disarm you, after you unlawfully brandish a gun, cannot be self-defense. – Stephen StubbsRate it:
The fact that Zachary is white and the police officer is white shouldn't matter, this shooting of an unarmed white teen should matter as much as if it were a black unarmed teen. – Eric BlandRate it:
The video clearly shows that Rubén García Villalpando was shot while unarmed with his hands in the air by this officer, it once again shows that there is a double standard of justice in America. Again we see an unarmed individual shot by a police officer who gets away with murder. – Domingo GarciaRate it:
What he'd done, ain't no way right, but to shoot an unarmed man? You're a police officer, you're trained to take down men with your hands. You have your Tasers, you have your clubs, whatever there is. Unarmed, a 19-year-old -- and you shoot to kill? – Christian TaylorRate it:
I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. That is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant. – Martin Luther King, Jr.Rate it:
I don't like the idea that the police department seems bent on keeping a pool of unarmed victims available for the predations of the criminal class. – David MohlerRate it:
All of us -- whether we're black, whether we're Latino, whether we're white -- are tired of looking up at the TV and seeing videos of unarmed people, often minorities, being killed. – Rahm EmanuelRate it:
Antwon Rose was shot in the back, he was unarmed. He did not pose a threat to the officers or the community, the verdict today says that that is OK. – Lee MerrittRate it:
Any time an unarmed person is shot by a Los Angeles police officer, Los Angeles takes extraordinary circumstances to justify that, and I have not seen those extraordinary circumstances at this point. – Police Chief Charlie BeckRate it:
Because the UAV was unarmed and posed no risk to the carrier's flight operations (since it wasn't flying at the time), we determined that ... the Iranian UAV's actions posed no danger to the ship, it was however, abnormal and unprofessional. – Kevin StephensRate it:
Both these two guys are black and they were killed for small crimes, police use tough measures against unarmed black people. It looks like white policemen are trained to act like that. – Johannes MorkenRate it:
Brelo was acting in conditions difficult for even experienced officers to imagine, he was in a strange place at night surrounded by gunfire, sirens and flashing bulbs. Brelo did not fire too quickly or at a person who was clearly unarmed or unable to run him over. – Judge John O'DonnellRate it:
Britain is the place where I was born and lived ... I have never been a threat to national security in Britain, and will not commit aggression on its population because our religion does not allow attacks on unarmed innocents. – Sufiyan MustafaRate it:
Clearly if Sandra Bland, who was a middle class black woman, had been a middle class white woman, it is unlikely that the police would have treated her in the same way, unarmed African-Americans have been abused and sometimes killed while in police custody. Clearly these are issues that must be dealt with and changed. – Bernie SandersRate it:
Donald Trump thinks unarmed people who are fleeing horrors and are still 1,000 miles away are a national security threat a week before election day ? i don't think so. – Will FischerRate it:
Failing to secure an indictment when a police officer shoots and kills an unarmed, skinny, naked teenager, who the officer outweighed by over 100 pounds, is a failure of will by the district attorney, and calls in to question the entire grand jury process in cases involving police misconduct. – Jeff EdwardsRate it:
He was unarmed. That's going to make this all the more complicated for the investigators, for the public to accept. – Madison Police Chief Mike KovalRate it:
I believe the national attention would have been quicker responding (if Zachary was black), i think all young lives matter, not just black or white. An unarmed teenager, it should matter just as much. – Paul HammondRate it:
I think absolutely my son's race and the color of his skin had a lot to do with why he was shot and killed, in all of these cases, these victims were unarmed. These victims were African-American. That needs to be our conversation. – Sybrina FultonRate it:
I think it is unfortunate because, among other things, I wanted to talk about the issues of black lives, the fact that the American people are tired of seeing unarmed African-Americans shot and killed, but there are other issues as well that we have to talk about, and that is the fact that the middle class of this country is disappearing and most importantly, we don't bring change in this country... unless all people stand together. That is what we have to do. – Bernie SandersRate it:
I want to join in those who are calling for greater security at our recruiting centers and military installations, we’ve had numerous instances of attacks. Clearly, they are a target, and for us to have unarmed military personnel makes no sense. – Arkansas Gov. Asa HutchinsonRate it:
I was hit with a baton on my left arm right above the elbow, we were unarmed peaceful protesters and did not warrant this hate and brutality from The NYPD. We were standing up for the victims of police brutality at the hands of the police and specifically, The NYPD. – Ivonne RayoRate it:
I'm not familiar with South Carolina police training, but I guarantee you that they do not teach to shoot a fleeing unarmed man in the back. – Jim BueermannRate it:
I've never heard of anything so crazy, i mean, the concept in a post-9/11 world of having sworn law enforcement officers unarmed at an airport, not being able to take direct action -- I don't know what they are thinking. – Wayne BlackRate it:
