"Police just shot a man in the head 10 times for no reason right in front of me holy ****"
Tonight 12/5 7PM
The EXECUTION of the young black men in this country must stop!!!
The LAPD's version of events echoed by Media:
A famous Hollywood intersection became the scene of an officer-involved shooting Friday evening when police shot and wounded a man suspected of assault with a deadly weapon, authorities reported.
Police said the shooting occurred at Hollywood Boulevard and Highland Avenue about 7 p.m. after LAPD's Hollywood Division received a report of an assault with a deadly weapon.
The suspect, who was taken to the hospital in critical condition, had a weapon, authorities said. They gave no further information about the type of weapon.

1. It's a white guy too Clearly these officers need retraining, they're not following the protocol that says they should only be killing black guys. Or maybe the police violence problem is actually about something a bit more broadly applicable than race.
A white guy? Oh... he ****ing deserved it!

2. Well if he is running around in LA with an assault weapon, I would think something
is going to happen. However the title says unarmed. They both cannot be right.

If the LAPD shot him in the head 10 times, they aren't doing it right.
As for the "no reason" part, LA is a Democrat controlled city in a Democrat controlled state. As far as the DUmmies are concerned, listening to Rush Limbaugh on the radio was sufficient justification for summary execution for THOUGHTCRIME.
Right, lurking DUmmies?

That's no joke. But, as silly as they look doing it, they'll never stop. It's all part of the lib mentality. They are always on the lookout for the white whale of racism they are constantly seeking after with Trayvon, Brown, Garner. A normal group would fact check first, wait till the details come out. But libs believe they only have to get lucky once and that's the ball game. So they keep running headfirst at that brick wall hoping for a different result each time.

Man Allegedly Armed With Knife Fatally Shot by LAPD Officers at Hollywood and Highland
http://ktla.com/2014/12/05/armed-man-shot-by-officers-near-hollywood-and-highland-lapd/
A man was shot and killed by police at the corner of Hollywood Boulevard and North Highland Avenue (map) on Friday night after allegedly approaching officers with a knife.
Officers responded to the intersection around 6:45 p.m. after receiving a report of an assault with a deadly weapon, according to Officer Jane Kim with the Los Angeles Police Department’s Media Relations Section.
When they arrived on scene, officers found a man armed with a knife, said LAPD Detective Meghan Aguilar.
I wonder if it is suicide by cop.

This is probably a dumb question, but why don't the cops use tasers or stun guns more?

I think the DUmbass 951-Riverside needs to save his GTA V game, turn off his X-Box and rejoin the real world.

I was wondering about that, especially after reading that the guy was "only" in critical condition when he arrived at the hospital. Had he been shot in the head 10 times the police and EMTs would have had to scrape his brains and pieces of his skull off the side walk.

Shot 10 times in the head, huh?.... that could give a fellow a killer headache.

Dori,
It's not a dumb question. The answer is that the situations officers face do not justify using them more often.
Tasers fall in the same part of the Use of Force Continuum as batons. The Use of Force Continuum refers to justified force in response to a suspect's threat or action, and it looks like this (least to greatest)
1. Verbal commands
2. Open hand (physically subduing)
3. Chemical weapons (pepper or Mace)
4. Baton OR Taser
5. Deadly force (firearms)
Tasers are less lethal than firearms, but they can cause death. They are not a substitute for firearms, and should not be used when an officer has a reasonable expectation that the situation requires deadly force, or will escalate to a deadly force situation.
Note: Stun guns are electrical contact weapons. The officer must hold the stun gun against the suspect, which is more dangerous for the officer. Stun guns are used in some corrections facilities, but are not recommended for officers on the street.

Most excellent analysis.

If it really happened, there was a very good reason for at least the first couple.

Plus, if it really happened (doubtful as it's coming from a DUmbass), with what's happening in the news today I would expect a story like this to be a priority story in the media.
