the guy charged out of his door with a gun in his hand and got smoked.
Lol it’s not at all illegal to do this. If some strangers bang on my door in the middle of the night, and stand out of view of the peephole, damn right I’m going out with a gun. You’re basically telling me this guy deserved it for exercising his 2nd amendment rights.
Love the name calling as well, sure makes me want to belive in your cause.
Well there’s nothing else to call a lost cause such as yourself. The cops could come and shut down your business or confiscate your firearms and I’m sure you’d still make excuses. Probably even offer to suck them off on the way out.
But he did present a lethal threat to 2 armed officers who had announced themselves.
You don't have to break the law to get shot. If you don't understand this concept please do not carry a weapon. A law abiding citizen may mistake your actions and fill you full of holes. Please google Garret in Austin TX for recent instance.
Your stomping of feet and screaming at the sky will not change any of the facts.
Fact, police announced themselves. I have read your 'evidence' the claim that he could not hear the cops over music is bullshit the video proves there was not loud music playing, there is no music when the cops knock and none when the door opens.
Fact, he charged out of his doorway armed with a gun.
Fact he was shot dead
Fact he did not simply answer his door with a gun in his hand. Had he done that he would be living. He charged out, video evidence 2 different body cams.
Fact all the name calling and gaslighting will not change any of the above statements
But he did present a lethal threat to 2 armed officers who had announced themselves.
No, he didn’t. At no point was it ever clear that Whitaker had intent to harm either of them. He was in the process of disarming and surrendering when he was shot in the back.

Did you even watch the video at all? You can barely even hear the cops announce themselves ON THE BODY CAM. I highly doubt you can hear it inside an apartment, even if it was dead silent, which it wasn’t.
They also stood outside of the view of the peephole so how could he possibly know who is out there if he didn’t hear?
Fact, he charged out of his doorway armed with a gun.
Nothing wrong with that, not illegal, nor is it justification to kill the guy. Especially considering they didn’t even give him a chance to disarm himself, and the weapon was behind his back and pointed at the ground. No one was in danger here.
he charged out
No shit, because the cops were hiding from view of the door and it was late at night
Fact he was shot dead
By a coward
Fact all the name calling and gaslighting will not change any of the above statements
None of your “facts” make the situation any more justified at all. You still have cops that hid from view of the door, didn’t give him a chance to disarm, and shot him in the back as he was putting his gun on the ground and kneeling with his other hand in the air. There is nothing that could possibly justify this.
The mental gymnastics it took to write that is amazing.
Please, for the sake of yourself and the people around you, do not ever handle a firearm. Hell I'm afraid of thinking that you might have a drivers license.
He charged the police with a gun within 3 feet closing distance, he was shot and killed because fortunately for them their training was better then the judgment of an armchair quarterback who probably would have shit his pants at the sight of an armed man charging at him out of his door.
Their training tells them to start guns blazing the second the see a firearm? Not even giving people an opportunity to disarm? To shoot people at point blank range in the back when they are on their knees and clearly surrendering? You are a special kind of stupid.
This started as a domestic violence call to 911. At 10:18 p.m. the caller said there was a domestic dispute going on at a condo nearby and reported a lot of yelling and slamming doors. A second call was made at 10:44 p.m. to 911 where the individual said the exchange may have become physical.
The officers arrived on the scene approximately 8 minutes after the second 911 call, approaching the apartment near Desert Foothills Parkway and Chandler Boulevard.
They knocked on the door and announced themselves as Phoenix Police. Officers did not have their guns drawn as the door opened. 40-year-old Ryan Whitaker opened the door, exiting the apartment and moving toward one of the officers, armed with a gun. The other officer fired his weapon, hitting the man. Whitaker died at the scene.
Not in this case. The officers announced themselves. If your holding a gun when police is at the door you are asking for trouble!

Barely. I could hardly hear it even on video, doubt it was all that audible inside the apartment. Especially if it was for a NOISE COMPLAINT. And they stood out of sight of the peephole, and shined a light into the dudes face so he couldn’t even see who it was. If some strangers bang on my door in the middle of the night, and I can’t see who is out there, damn right I’m going out with a gun. And it’s legal to do.
individual said the exchange may have become physical.
And even during that call, they admitted they are only saying that to get the cops out there faster.
Before they even give him a chance to disarm, which he was in the process of doing, they shoot him 3 times in the back while he’s kneeling on the ground.
Why are you so hellbent on making excuses for this pussy of a cop, that executed someone for doing literally nothing wrong?
This is very fake news.
The man was beating his wife not playing video games. How the fuck did this propaganda get posted on the donald.
Only according to the neighbor that called, who only said that to get the cops there faster. Even the wife says they were playing video games.
You are trying to justify the cops gunning down someone on their knees, execution style, who broke zero laws and did nothing wrong.
How does that boot taste?
Lol what is this the white version of he was a good kid didn't do nuffin wrong?
Play stupid games win stupid prizes, the guy charged out of his door with a gun in his hand and got smoked.
Deal with it.
Love the name calling as well, sure makes me want to belive in your cause.

Who opens the door with a gun on their hand? Criminals do!
Or, you know, someone who wants to defend their family from strangers banging on their door in the middle of the night.
It’s 100% legal to answer your door holding a gun.
Not in this case. The officers announced themselves. If your holding a gun when police is at the door you are asking for trouble!
