Police tried to pull over Jayland Walker

[chipbennett]

Thank you! That explains it a bit more. Doesn't sound good for the PD.

"Sources say some of the last shots were fired while Walker’s body was on the pavement. Walker was on the ground dead when medical help arrived. Autopsy records show he was handcuffed after the shooting. He was not armed at the time he was shot, sources said.

A gun, however, was recovered inside Walker’s car, the same sources confirmed."

I'm going to say that the highlighted bit is largely immaterial, and that people make way too much out of it. Real life is not like the movies.

True, but we've seen instances where reality had very little to do with the decisions of juries or to the reactions of mobs.

60 rounds!? If they were using 9 mm - they only needed 1 round. It would have blown his lungs out! With 9 mm being that powerful - police should be using single shot firearms.

Some jack*** shoots at officers.
Jack**** gets plugged.

Now July 4 Holiday celebrations cancelled.

Odds are jackwagons already put a strain on cops at those events in a good year.

Add Protesters and Antifa-types looking for an excuse to break stuff, and you are asking for good people just looking to enjoy the holiday to be hurt.

I dont blame them for not giving the violent minded an innocent excuse to be out and about. I dont LIKE it, but I understand it.
Jackwagons are why we cant have nice things.

 

[Cameramonkey]

And in this case, the protesters will gather anyway without innocent souls to be in the way of police or be injured.

Mostly agree, but how many cops would it take to fire 90 rounds (assuming handguns), with 60 striking his body?

What if it was one guy with 6 guns?

That’s not a great hit ratio for trained officers.

Please impress us with your expertise at hit ratios on moving targets that a) aren't paper b)have shot at you and c) you aren't in a set shooting stance. Video gets extra credibility.

Pardon my ignorance of thug life norms.

Am I supposed to go out burning, looting, and murdering this weekend?

9mm flintlocks?

D) after pursuing them in a foot chase

I made no claim to my expertise. You made that assumption. Officers training should simulate most of those conditions other than the actual adrenaline of being shot at. I would hope the goal would be an 80% hit ratio with their training. I understand that no one knows what it’s like to be shot at until you are being shot at. Something officers never want to go through. Something our military has done too many times.

Crap....I was hoping to grill some steaks this evening...looks like I'll be tied up now.

Could get spicy in Akron!

Police tried to pull over Jayland Walker, a 25-year-old DoorDash driver, for a traffic infraction early Monday, authorities said. Autopsy records show that eight officers fired more than 90 rounds at Walker, with more than 60 striking his body,

Family calls out Akron police on killing of Jayland Walker

Protestors took to the street in Akron Thursday to express anger with Akron police over the killing of Jayland Walker.

Article devoid of actual information on shot or hit count. Photo only shows about two dozen crime scene markers for brass.

This sounds like another BLM fiction. The very first thing they always do is lie.

I saw a press conference where an attorney stated he was shot for a traffic stop.

Nah. I'm pretty sure he was shot for shooting at a cop.

Was it Crump, or is his private jet still in the air?

 

[Wolfhound]

Why call EMS after shooting someone 60 times? He could have collapsed onto a stretcher at the entrance of a level 4 trauma center and he would still be just as dead.

 

[Bugzilla]

Back to the range. That was only about a 60% hit ratio. I want to see 85%+ hit ratio! Them there bullet cost us taxpayers money!
