      The Brutal Police Execution of Daniel Shaver Sadly I've studied 100s of videos of American police executing non-violent, unarmed people. This is one of the worst I've ever witnessed. This happened in January of 2016, but the judge just released the video. A grave injustice.pic.twitter.com/O3UjLb3mZJ

      Watching this reminded me of what happened to little Tamir Rice. He was being given instructions and didn't follow the instructions to a T. And if this grown man was nervous, can you imagine a child having to try to follow orders like that?

          The screaming was intended to so intimidate and confuse the man that he couldn't follow the directions to a T. If you're trying to keep a situation calm and have a good outcome, that isn't how you behave.

          Exactly what I was thinking to myself. He was trying so hard to follow the directions to a T. But they were screaming different directions at one time. Hands up arms straight up. The kid was getting confused by THEM. This was no reason to kil him

          I had to watch this at least 5 more times to actually believe what I saw. I cannot believe they found him innocent.

          He shoots him like it's Call of Duty. Horrific.

          There was absolutely no reason for someone to end up dead. Ignoring the issue that it was fucking murder, WHAT KIND OF POLICE WORK IS THAT? There was ample opportunity to handcuff the man & discover HE WAS NOT ARMED.

          What REASON did they have to think he was armed anyway? What kind of "training" do they get? In my Dad's day on the force, this guy would have been charged with first degree manslaughter, and fired, jailed. Back then police SAVED people, not slaughtered them.

          Apparently some unnamed person called the police and on accused him of pointing a gun out a window. So they had reason to show up & be careful but not to just kill him.
