CBS …..you forgot to add that Patrick resisted arrest !!

Let's get the facts before we jump. Facts first

He was stopped for an obvious violation. This tragic death is the results of his own actions: Refused to give license. Tried to walk away. Fought with officer when stopped. Tried to take away officers weapon. Got shot. If he simply complied he would be alive.

Paid to lie. Crumpy

Sorry, my condolences to the family... but come on my people....

Yes exactly, it was just a traffic stop. That could have gone so smoothly. Just listen to the cops! But he escalated! Don’t run and fight with police! Cops have their lives to fear too. Act like an animal, will be treated like an animal. Don’t play the victim game!

BEN CRUMP, the multi-millionaire AMBULANCE CHASER. WHAT YOU SEE IN THE VIDEO IS A PERP THAT DIDN'T WANT TO GO BACK TO JAIL, SO HE ASSAULTED A POLICE OFFICER...USING THE RACE CARD AS USUAL....ATTITUDE.

Jabezlvcbs news. Your reply is excellent! With so many cops being killed , l think this cop was afraid of being killed himself.

Standard American Law enforcement handbook. Escalate, escalate, escalate, execute.

Uncle Ben should help domesticate black men to society.Since antiquity, scholars have described humans (in general or in reference to their own particular culture) as domesticated, which generally referred to their “civility”: their distance from a wild or savage state of being.

What kind of behavior was that from a refugee to begin with?

Stay in your car, hands on the steering wheel, say yes sir, or no sir, when asked a question. How hard is that? Do not run from the police. Do not try to wrestle the police. Do not try to take equipment from the police. This is your survival guide for a routine traffic stop.

So True

Only in america can a criminal become a praised victim if they're black

Cop had legal authority to use deadly force, many will not understand this and are emotional

He shouldn't have been fighting for the officers taser.. I think we can all accept that.. Maybe he's had traumatic experiences in the past with authority in the Congo. That has to come into the equation.. Something at the time the cop would have been unaware of.. BUT. Him fightin

Ben Crump out there getting paid!!!!

😍😍😍🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍😍

Yikes. So they not only kill African Americans, but everyone black! That is disturbing.

2 mistakes one each and someone needlessly dies !

After Frank James arrest, CBS openly lying about a violent criminal grabbing an officers equipment

Condolences to the Congolese families. This is utterly sickening!!!!

It was wrong period.

Two mistakes make someone dead !!

It never had to happen, it all comes down to compliance!! All he had to do was comply with the officer's demands.

HOW Is This NOT Outright Cold-Blooded MURDER HOW

Long live democratic socialism and chairman xi jinping

Maybe if he educated his his son in not be fu..ng stupid.....

That's murder pure and simple

So sad! Justice for this family. They have endured too much to have to deal with this.

Irrelevant

I see a lot of love here 🤔. Don’t judge, this could’ve been you or someone close to you.

Protesters rally in Grand Rapids after video shows fatal police shooting of Patrick LyoyaHundreds of protesters marched and gathered outside a police station in Grand Rapids, Michigan, on Wednesday after footage was released showing an officer fatally shooting a black man earlier this month. Oh, of course... Suddenly this, and the CDC 'monitoring upticks', some NYC subway shooting/ 'gun control', the Treasury urging to reduce CO2 emission... Seems like our economy is not in a good shape now. They literallly launched all the 'excuses', 'agendas' and 'distractions.'

Patrick Lyoya shot to death by Grand Rapids Police - here's what the video showedPatrick Lyoya was shot to death after a traffic stop in Grand Rapids on April. On Wednesday, April 13, police released four different videos of the shooting. Same old Hollywood script here. The cop tells him to stay in the car, the criminal resists. The cop tries to restrain the criminal, the criminal resists and fights. The cop shoots as a last resort. And we about to enter yet another summer of love aka looting and riots. The end. 'He did not attempt to render any aid to Lyoya' I assume it would have been pointless after this: 'Then he fires the gun once, shooting Lyoya in the back of the head.' Again. STAY in the car. It's not hard. Stay in the car. Someone give me a reason to get out of the car. There isn't one. Stay in the car.
