Thank you for your comment. Your comment will be published after being reviewed.

I wouldn’t be a good cop because I would have just taken his keys away and told him to call someone to come pick him up.

The difference here is SKIN COLOUR... sadly, nothing else.

well. bad luck.

Police issued taser is considered a weapon. Attack an officer, steal his weapon and you expect a thank you. Job well done.

hmmm one suspect (NAKED) accused of triple murder (2 women and lil girl) ..being chased by cop and chasing cop.. but no gun shots. He lived. ...another suspect accused of sleeping in an Atlanta Wendy's drive-thru or parking lot.. he resist and is chased also.. but HE DEAD

Based on the video he presumably resisted arrest, assaulted the police, stole a police taser, ran from the scene of a crime.

Amazing, the number and variety of crimes that carry the death penalty in the U.S.

Suicide by cop.

Video shows the shooting officer deployed his taser running w/his right arm extended behind Mr. Brooks before switching the taser to his left hand. The officer dropped the taser behind the red car before drawing his gun firing at least 3 times w/one or more hitting Mr. Brooks.

We definitely cannot be afraid of changing the whole system if we have to. The current structure by design is meant to send the black man to prison or the morgue. This isn't suddenly happening but now the microscope is on cops and they don't like it, so they act up even more.

Shot armed man. Yawn

Again. 'Murica'. Yeah.

😞😡

Good picture of the Wendys that used to be there.

Why didn't they just leave him alone to sleep.

The simplest common sense way to prevent being killed by police is to be smart and obey police commands, do not use foul language, do not struggle & do not resisting arrest from police could save your life.

I'll bet the person who called for a welfare check on a sleeping man in his car in the parking lot is now kicking themselves into eternity.

Trump 3 - Any other news 1

Most POLICE POLICIES state USE the FORCE NECESSARY TO STOP A THREAT, A PERSON RUNNING AWAY NOR A PERSON POINTING & OR USING A TASER ISNT A THREAT THAT JUSTIFIES DEADLY FORCE because these ACTIONS WILL NOT CAUSE & or DOESNT CAUSE DEATH

Person fights with officers Person takes officers Taser Person aims Taser at Officer If person tasers officer & takes his weapon The officer is dead & everyone around The person becomes a risk to everyone once he took the Taser and ran, let alone turning around and pointing it

🤨😱..WHY is Police allowed to take a person OUT of its car just because IS SLEEPING🙄⁉️..& WHY are they allowed to SHOOT just because of running⁉️..even if having that STUPID taser..the guy was maybe afraid Police will kill him..I have so much to say😱☹️WRONG‼️.. CNN ALL...🤷‍♀️

Council member needs to be removed for interfering with an investigation

You know this shooting - if they have to shoot why not hit them in the arm or leg? Could it be that they di not want them to talk!

If in fact the suspect did in fact fight with the officers, & if in fact the suspect tried to get the officers taser then in fact it was a good shoot. If the investigation shows this to be true then the protestors need to grow up & go home.

Seriously. How many shootings in Chicago lat night?

If the report MSNBC is giving is accurate, then the guy deserved to be shot.

(CNN) 'An Atlanta police officer shot and killed a man at a Wendy's drive-thru Friday night after he resisted arrest and struggled for an officer's Taser, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation said in a statement.' 75% likelihood Rayshard didn't have a father at home. Sad. Tragic.

FedtheEffUp1 What about police Capt in mossuri

He resisted arrest and took an officers weapon, but sure, spin it to fit your narrative.

police should just use guns to maim a suspect so he won't be able to escape. it's not meant to kill, especially when the suspect is unarmed and outnumbered. and failed the sobriety test? that means rayshard was drunk and was not in his full physical potential. this was too much.

Atlanta Police Fatally Shoot Black Man in the Back at Wendy's Drive-ThruA 27-year-old African-American man was shot in the back and killed by Atlanta police Friday night, after someone complained he was sleeping in his car at a Wendy's drive-thru. Even in an active, full-fledged war zone, you CANNOT shoot the enemy in the back and kill them after failing to restrain them during a traffic violation. Looks like Atlanta needs to have a job fair and hire some new police officers. Terrible. Before posting news, first get the facts.
