        God be with these officers. They will have to live with their decision for the rest of their lives. You are all forgetting how hard that is, & that no officer wants to take a life, even if it’s justified. #BackTheBlue #BlueLivesMatter 💙💪🏼

        The fact that so many are so quick to denigrate the police, and believe that cops suit up every day looking to murder people, disgusts me beyond words.

        Multiple supposedly trained professionals with body armor vs. a single homeless person with a screwdriver. Cowardice, ineptitude, or normalization of lethal force? Maybe all three.

        Don’t they have a stun gun? Aren’t they capable of taking down someone holding a screwdriver? They need better training!

        One man tried but shit did not work, you are here judging them but they probably had about 2 seconds to react if a man is running towards me with a screwdriver and I say drop it, and man keeps running I'ma shoot cause I won't die because I choose the man over me when they were

        The cops don’t take chances with people about to attack them. Expect to be shot. Unfortunately this is our reality. So many cop haters.

        That was a tragic situation for the man who died, the cops are cowards. They were afraid to approach a man with a damn screwdriver and it was three of them. My God!!

        They even shot him with tasers and he kept coming at them, therefor deadly force was applied. Thats how it goes, don't call cops cowards for giving a man every chance possible and him charging them.
