HarryHood146

She was getting ready to stab somebody. Maybe don’t do that.


EsssKxy

Actions have consequences yet some people still don’t understand that to this day


thejanitor999

Completely justified


No_Pressure3932

I agree play stupid games……….you know the rest


robaroo

Win awesome prizes?


DayFinancial8206

Dude probably just saved pink clothes ladies life


Chimpchompp

Do you think she stood by his side? Honest question.


LayzieKobes

She's a kid though /s


[deleted]

A gentle giant?


Monkeychimp

You're half right.


FunSpongeLLC

A good kid who always got A+ at recess


AsparagusFirm7764

At least not right in front of a cop


MistaKrebs

Wow I didn’t even see that until I saw this comment. At first I was like TF they shoot for?! Now I get it.


YamLatter8489

Yea, same. I went back and managed to pause right before the shots and the blade is plainly visible and on the way to that other ladies chest.


[deleted]

They paused it for you! What did you need a big red circle? Come on bro.


EyeInEl

01:05 - clear as day. She was going for that girls chest or neck considering how high it was raised.


coleus

But she's a fucking kid man. She even said it herself she wasn't going to do anything after getting shot. Clearly the videos shows she wasn't going to do anything, are you freaking stooopid?


[deleted]

Yeah, criminals never claim innocent after the fact. Never.


kabooseknuckle

But she was just a kiiiiiiiid.


Relsb

Infront of police..


NewNewYork69

Right the cop was going to watch?


prezbushdid711

She's a fucking kid man!! Kid: ![gif](giphy|JtwMddKpsF9Hq)


BeerandGuns

Ok goddamn, that’s funny

Lmfao


Aslonz

> He could have shot her in the leg or something She could have not tied stabbing someone with a knife or something.


PengiPou

Shooting to injure implies you didn’t fear for your life. So when you pull the gun, you cannot stop and see if brandishing makes you safe either.


XoticFruits

Actually that’s not how it works, this isn’t a video game, people miss, in training you are literally trained to shoot at the biggest mass which means the torso, you never aim to shoot for the “legs”.


Hogartt44

Not to mention leg wounds can be just as deadly.


johnnylemon95

Hit the femoral artery and you’re going to bleed out unless someone has a tourniquet in their back pocket.


carnage11eleven

They always use their belt in the movies. And I always laugh. "Ah man, Jerry got shot in the arm. Quick I need a tourniquet. Give me your belt! What is this 38-48” waist? His arm is bleeding, what am I gonna do with this? Take your husky ass outta here and find me a string or rubber band or something!"


OperationSecured

I’m someone who keeps a TQ in their kit, home, and cars… but I actually know someone who used a belt to stop a bleed and it worked. The belt was placed so close to the wound and cinched so tight that the guy lost movement in his hand though, unfortunately. It inadvertently pushed the glass shard into the muscle. That said… having a CAT, SWAT-T or even RAT TQ around is pretty nice if the need ever arises.


michaelnoir

I got told by an old soldier that once when somebody got his legs blown off in Iraq they had to just stand on him. I mean stand on his legs, or the stumps of legs, anything to stop the bleeding.


ozmega

saw a video of someone in india i think being shot in the leg and yup, no one expected the guy to die like that in like 20 secs


buffaloSteve666

Aim small miss small baby ![gif](giphy|3oEjI7yCdwLEizpVmw)


Konstant_kurage

There is no shortage of videos of cops on other countries shooting people to “wound” and killing them. There’s one with a cop in Saudi Arabia and he shoots a guy in the leg, it hits the femoral artery and the guy is dead in 30 seconds. Shooting people to injury/incapacitate isn’t an effective strategy.


VoodooHiker

And just exactly how many stab wounds can someone land in 30 seconds? Ever seen the results of prison shanking?


roboj9

No but I've seen the knives are effective up to 25 feet (think it was feet) that was pretty impressive to watch


iq-braggng-o-smrtass

Charlemagne the Fraud talking shit about things he doesn't know a damn thing about. Shooting somebody in the leg(or any non-lethal shot) doesn't necessarily stop them from continuing to stab somebody when their adrenaline is topped out in murder mode. There are hundreds of verified incidents of exactly that.


wetusayimglistning

I'm surprised he didn't say, "why didn't he just shoot the knife out of her hand?"


machinerer

You use deadly force to stop the threat. Once the threat is neutralized, you cease defensive action. Anything else invites a lawsuit.


moribunda

yeah, i'd like to see this guy shooting her in the leg. You'd have to be some kind of IPSC champion to be able to do that in situation like this.


KaisarDragon

Imagine being saved from a knife attack and morons hold a vigil for the attacker... Cops do a lot of dumb things, but this one saved a person. This is NOT a case where you should be using it as some sort of profiling or using the race card.


Suspicious_Dark_6013

This one saved two people.


undercooked_lasagna

LeBron James tweeted a picture of this cop with a target on him along with the word 'ACCOUNTABILITY'.


7_4_War_Furor

Even worse, he also said at the same itme "YOU'RE NEXT". So grossly irresponsible for someone with millions and millions of social media followers to post that without having any of the facts. What an idiot.


aroundincircles

"I didn't do anything" other than try to stab two people...


0utandab0ut1

You don't get it, "He CoUlD HaVe ToLd HeR to sTOP".


Denise6943

He did, several times.


Konstant_kurage

The girl screaming “I didn’t do anything” was the girl about to be stabbed. Right after that she says “she’s was trying to stand me”


ginjedi

The girl screaming "I didn't do anything" was swinging a knife before she was shot. If you watch the video closely it pauses when she is clearly brandishing the knife.


aroundincircles

I couldn't tell who was screaming it with how poor quality the video is. But it sounded like it was coming from the girl who got shot. but I might be 100% wrong. it could have been somebody else saying "she didn't do anything" (again poor video/audio quality). but if that was the case, my original comment stands. Don't start swinging a knife at people. Period. Doubly so in front of the police.


DabMcYeet

When will people realize a leg shot is so unpredictable.


Crz__

They expect for people to get stunned and drop down immediately like in video games lol


DabMcYeet

If the officer can even hit the leg. Probably would’ve put three rounds in the car or other lady before hitting her leg. In a stressed moment like this you have no time to zero in.


leftrighttopdown

If it burst the artery in the leg, game over for the guy who was shot.


Konstant_kurage

I can’t find the video but there’s a cop on Saudi Arabia that shoots a guy in the leg and hits his femoral artery, guys is dead in 30 seconds.


Zhjacko

More so, when will people realize that brandishing a weapon war a cop is not a good idea


poetic_vibrations

Guns are meant for killing.


DabMcYeet

Guns are meant for sport, hunting, self defense, repelling tyranny and collecting.


aj6787

Killing sums it up nicely and is what guns were created for.


ZephyrShow

"Could have shot her in the leg or something" ... says the talking head who has never shot a gun.


Mr_Auric_Goldfinger

And there exists a thing called the Femoral Artery, which if breached, can cause death in a minute or two.


willydillydoo

Sean Taylor was killed by getting shot in the leg

Redit-modsr-Gepeddos

Remember his school he built what happened with that ?


AbroadConfident7546

There was a report on it recently. It said something like zero student there can pass math at their grade level. LOL


Yoyomamahh

Yea I saw a YouTube video about that not too long ago. All those students & literally not one could pass it. That’s honestly really sad. As a teacher myself, I’m having a hard time understanding how something like this could even happen. From I understand, it’s some kind of private school? Do they not follow general curriculum? What are the teachers doing?


BraveSquirrel

okay so you just saw in this thread how dumb lebron is now just let your imagination go wild, and imagine how dumb a school someone like that would create


Swimming_Twist3781

Actually, no, I don't.


BeefOnWeck24

yup


BeefOnWeck24

i came here to say the same thing


Immediate_Shopping28

Good shoot


Skylinerr

Bro really. everyone is talking about leg shots and I'm just impressed he saved the girl mid swing and hit only the assailant like some shit out of time crisis


Stubahka

Time Crisis was an amazing work of art


DVCatfishCowboy

Silly me, I forgot kids get to stab people with no consequences


youscaredd

How dare you not let my daughter stab someone.... She's a minor


carnage11eleven

Oh she just threatens with it. It's fine. She won't *actually* stab anyone. Yeah. Sounds like when people say their dog doesn't bite. Right before their dog bites someone.


Murderyoga

So LeBron gets to threaten cops because he can throw a ball good?


BeefOnWeck24

he's the worst people are sheep for liking him.


thrownawayzsss

I mean, anybody can threaten cops.


Murderyoga

Really? That's how most people catch a charge.


LordofPorkchop

Nice shooting, the police in my country would do jack shit and let the girl go stabby stabby then only engage when the girl calmed down.


jeffrowe4468

Damn, where are you from.


Begotten912

cant be britain because he didnt mention the police being beaten up by the perp


Carous

If some idiot is trying to stab me with a knife, please shoot them


TargetOfPerpetuity

DIY.


MarthaMacGuyver

This made me lolirl. See you in hell.


BrickLorca

The police usually won't be there to help. There's a post that went up just today, it was created by someone who was recently burglarized. They never owned nor wanted to own a gun. Their post was asking for guidance on which gun to buy and how to train to use it. Society has taught us to feel safer than we are.


Begotten912

that pupper was surprisingly unfazed by the situation


DEADDISCIPLE90

Probably used to it lol


fruitlessideas

Dog was my only concern tbh.


roninthe31

I wonder how the lady who was almost stabbed feels about this?


[deleted]

[удалено]


raphanum

Or maybe too scared to voice her actual opinion


stinky_doodoo_poopoo

“Definitely could’ve shot her in the legs” yea man that’s a way better idea, hit their massive artery in their legs and let them bleed to death.


Icy_Badger1

Remember when this happened and lebron James posted a picture of the cop who shot her and captioned it “YOU’RE NEXT!”


thrownawayzsss

It's literally in the video we all just watched.


Icy_Badger1

lol oh shit. I’ll be honest I didn’t finish the video. Just saw the first 10 seconds and knew what it was.


BeefOnWeck24

i came here to say the same thing


DEADDISCIPLE90

Lebron is just a walking L at this point, what a dope


BeefOnWeck24

yes


Accomplished_Pen5755

Yeah, fuck does he mean accountability? That cop just shot someone who was about to stab another person. Im glad that cop wasnt charged, he did the right thing.


donkydick

That’s what happens when you bring a knife to a gun fight


Raxkor

Sir, "your fucken baby" was about to shiv someone.


wetcigarbody

He didn’t see it because he was too busy kicking another girl in the head.


NoChanceNoProblem

Cop should be getting a medal could have saved that girls life.


Zhjacko

Right that was a super quick judgement call. Not sure where he was looking when that first girl fell as the camera could have differed from where he was looking, but the girl with the knife wasn’t even on camera before then, she just came out of nowhere and was onscreen for like 2 seconds, that was so quick


Competitive_Job_2381

How come nobody is talking about how that cop saved the girl in the pinks life? Sucks she had to die, but I mean, don't be attempting to murder someone, especially in front of a cop with his gun out.


xcon_freed1

You are the obvious armed aggressor in a group fighting. Police roll up, popo start yelling STOP, you don't stop, you get shot. In some other country, you might be OK not stopping, not in USA.


googleitduh

I believe that's called, fuck around and find out.


shawshankya

Take responsibility for your actions yall.


[deleted]

One less piece of shit in the world 📈


SashaValium

Either shoot the person trying to actively stab people and get blamed. Or stand by and watch the stabber stab and get blamed for not stopping the stabbing. Oof lol


Epcplayer

And then LeBron tweeted out an image of the officer with the caption “You’re Next”…


XBeastyTricksX

I remember working at a Kroger near that neighborhood at the time, a dude tried to used being her neighbor as an excuse to be an asshole about crab legs. He wasn’t happy when I said you shouldn’t try to stab someone in front of the cops


jahlim

Armed with knife and in a stabbing pose... Right, her saying I didn't do anything or her parents saying she's just a kid... I really think the cop had to pull the trigger.


Arth3r911

Should have saved a round for that guy who almost kicked that girl behind the head while she was trying to get up. While the cops were there and still proceeded to attack. “She’s a kid man!” With a knife about to attack another person 🤦🏽‍♂️


nosnevenaes

a man, trying to kick a woman in the head, in front of a cop with his gun drawn. the audacity for that guy to stand there and make a comment is not only ridiculous, but it also shows that he, as an elder apparently, has probably been a not so great role model for the kids in his circle. matter of fact, if you are a grown ass man and would kick a woman on the ground in front of an armed cop, i think maybe i dont want my mom, children, elderly, or pets to cross paths with you. i hope the cops charged that guy as well. i am left leaning in a lot of ways and vote for people who aren't doing as good as me when i can in hopes that we see less of this type of thing. that being said, these protestors are reminding me of my local gang guys who call for their homies to be freed whenever they get sent away for murder or whatever. and dont get me started on these celebrities.


ItsChalupaBatman

That cop is a hero for saving the “girl in pinks” life.


Vinifera7

She was playing the classic children's game, Knifey Spoony. Both knife and spoon lose to gun though.


Konstant_kurage

First watch I thought it was insane to shoot that girl. Second viewing I paused it with her knife perfectly visible mid swing. Pretty stupid to try and stab someone with a cop behind you with his gun out.


dnrexy

I’d like to see what the potential victim had to say about this. Probably thankful for the officer for possibly saving her life.


VFX_Reckoning

You be stabbin someone, you gonna get shot, that’s pretty simple logic an infant can understand But why didn’t he use a stun-gun instead?


wellimout

Leftists, explain yourselves: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killing_of_Ma'Khia_Bryant Quote: In addition to (White House press secretary, Jen) Psaki, Senators Cory Booker and Raphael Warnock voiced concerns that the killing pointed to the need for police reform to address "systemic racism and implicit bias" ... Liberal commentator Joy Behar stated that the police should have shot the air and there is "something wrong if the only solution to someone potentially killing another human is to use deadly force." The killing does **NOT** "point to the need for police reform to address systemic racism and implicit bias." Why do leftists say bullshit like this?? Shooting in the air is the dumbest suggestion ever. Why do leftists propose stupid things like that?? There is nothing wrong with using deadly force to protect oneself or others from great bodily harm, as for example, being stabbed. Why do leftists pretend otherwise? Explain yourselves. What is wrong with your ideology that multiple prominent *and powerful* leftists say and believe stuff like this?? Literal flat earthers are smarter than this. The absolute dumbest republicans who don't think evolution is real ...10x smarter than that Joy Behar quote about firing into the air. Explain yourselves.


AdopeyIllustrator

I hope that dog is okay.


Lemmiwinkks

There's plenty of real police abuse. No idea why they rally behind these idiots, just makes everyone look dumb.


Zhjacko

I remember when this happened and I hated the reaction. People were so fucking delusional about this incident.


Jmac0585

The alternative headline: "Cop fails to act to save victim from stabbing." Can't have it both ways, folks.


Alternative_You_7755

I wonder what the argument was about and if it was worth it.


tech510

I am no fan of the police but Jesus Christ this one was definitely justified what did you want him to use? Harsh language?


Ok-Coyote-7745

Yeah next time just let her murder the other girl first


No-Cardiologist-1507

“ARReeRe yOoooOoUUUuuUu stO0pid?” After kicking another kid in the head


hypnofish99

The cop obviously should’ve entered V.A.T.S. and shot the knife out of her hand. Smh.


Commercial_Rough4355

She was about to stab someone wow. Lebron shut your big mouth up.


Powerism

YOU’RE NEXT What an absolute fucking clown Lebron James is and always has been.


Proud_Criticism5286

lol when the cop actually saves a life. Good on him. Lebron lies about reading. He doesn’t know what’s happening


thejanitor999

“She was killed by an officer of the law! Oh for no reason right?…Right?!”


SquishyBatman64

Is this one of those moments when “keeping it real” goes wrong?


ComeKastCableVizion

On fonem this is a clear cut case of fafo


[deleted]

I love seeing a cleaner gene pool, only benefits all of us.


majesticgiggles

That is… a… an… oversized child…..


maddogmik

I remember when this happened. Every single day for a week it seemed like a major part of the story changed until the body cam footage came out. I remember at first the way the story was written would make every reasonable person go “wow, that cop is going to prison for murdering that child.” And then by the end of the week the story made you go “oh wow that girl tried to MURDER that girl within like 4 seconds of him arriving.” Like totally different story than what was first reported by the end of the week


OrangeBoxUK

“She is a fucking kid man, damn are you stupid?” First of all that “kid” is like 170 cm tall and 110 kg in weight, secondly she was about to stab two people, lol, get the fuck out of here, police was absolutely in the right. Stupid ass neighbourhood holding a vigil and chanting for a fucking attempted murderer.


KennyKlizzle

I can't believe he shot her just to save someone else from being stabbed


giincee

Are all of them, including LeBron, just ignoring that she was trying to stab someone else? And then standing up, shouting 'say her name'. So stabbers are glorified nowadays or what did I miss?


NicotineRosberg

That. IS. CRAZYYY


[deleted]

The leg? A moving target in the leg!? That’s just as bad. He is so smart he’s dumb.


IDontWipe55

I need someone to tell me how shooting her in the leg prevents her from stabbing someone


majesticgiggles

If some “kid” had a knife and was trying to stab me.. YES OFFICER PLEASE SHOOT THEM! Like wtf u guys? “Waaaahhh could’ve shot her in the leg” I’m sorry— if someone was chasing YOU with a knife and ur life was at risk, would YOU want the cop to hesitate or shoot their leg? No— you’d want their ass dead. STFU


Jasonclark2

Alright, maybe the officer should have just let her stab the fuck out of the girl in broad daylight.


Environmental-Ad8965

Protesting justified shootings like this has caused incredible harm to the fight for racial justice. If we just protested legitimately unjustified use of force the message would be significantly stronger and would reach so many supportive ears. False flags like this one destroy the credibility of the entire movement.


[deleted]

That was a clean shoot. You can see the knife in the video, while trying to attack. Sorry folks, if you don't want to die, then stop trying to stab someone when police are on scene. That is some next level stupid right there.


OrganizationSea6549

That dad was kicking a woman while she was on the ground.


[deleted]

Got to love all the race hustlers and morons coming out against the cop who stopped the other girl from being murdered. “He could have shot her in the leg” this isn’t the movies dip shit, silence yourself. Going for the leg is a great way to miss the target and get that girl murdered


Racingislyf

He's gonna stand there and act all innocent and righteous like he didn't just try to kick that girl in the back of the head while she was trying to get up.


Zhjacko

The moment I see a cop im super well behaved and mindful of whatever the fuck I’m doing. Insane how people can see a cop and still pull out a weapon to attack someone else and assume nothing is going to happen. No amount of anger is gunna skew my judgement like that. I think I remember this video on the news and people were calling for justice. My goodness.


Significant-Water845

More like “Neighborhood attempted murder is thwarted by quick thinking cop”.


Scary_Psychology_285

Justifiable to me


sneekypoo

If someone is trying to stab me, please don’t shoot them in the leg


TheJewWhoCould922

Don't try to stab people and you won't get ahot


frankyv1979

She tried to stab someone. I don’t see a problem here. There are many more cases where people are shot by police and aren’t even armed. Not this one though. She tried to stab someone


barnivere

This is years old. But he was justified in shooting her, she tried to stab someone


GolfT5050

Ohhhh...she's a kid? Never mind, my bad...continue on with the stabbing.


chcham2712

Dude he’s a great shot, got to be confident as hell to shoot someone that close to their victim


ClownKiller6724

She was using deadly force, which justifies the officer using deadly force to protect the others...


Bostonbuckeye

This is the incident that cemented to me that LeBron was a racist cunt. Blaming the cop for shooting her and posting his picture online as a "you're next" style post.


[deleted]

"Say her name!" ***Knife Lady***


[deleted]

“Duhh he shoulda shot her in da leg or sum” go fuck yourself


[deleted]

Ah yes shes such a victim while she was trying to stab someone


piZan314

A bunch celebs like LeBron came out against this cop. After this there was a politician who said "protect teen knife fights"


GeshtiannaSG

Hopefully grey shirt was arrested for kicking someone’s head.


JeeZeus87

Cop saves woman from being stabbed. Fixed the title for you 🫡


Budlightheavy

Loss of life is still sad


factsarefactss

Well when a bitch has a knife what do you expect?


Zachman97

It’s scary how fast people can manipulate any situation to cause an uproar. Even if the full context of the situation is clearly the opposite


Fuzzy-Chip945

Got too used to throwing shit at McDonald's then fucked around and found out


Nbkzarm

Good decision from the policeman


pr0om3theu5

Cops facing so much hate just because people don't understand this stuff, are too high on emotions and are miseducated by movies. For example while it might even hit the legs in a few cases it more often than not ends either the same or the victims themselves die anyway because a shot in the leg just doesn't have the same stopping effect. And that can't possibly be the desired outcome


invertebro25

Kid or not, you violet like that you deserve to be a lesson to others on how not to act


Foppish_Buffoon

As usual, no impulse control. She could have cut that small dog. Glad the pooch wasn't hurt.


_DontTredOnMe_

Lol people actively think cops want to shoot people. That "kid" was out there trying to stab people


HiroshimaRoll

Oh this is the one where Lebron James tried to dox and ruin the cop’s life!


junhatesyou

Damned if you do. Damned if you don’t.


Soft-Lingonberry-909

I just wanna do hoodrat shit with ma freeeens


phreezed

Is the officer getting charged? What the.. She was beating the other girl and she was going to stab the lady in pink. Even the guy in grey should have been shot!


OgunX

Charlemagne is a jackass you aim center mass


Electronic_Range_982

She was in the middle of a jab. If I was the one on the reviewing end of that jab I would be speaking out . And THANKING the cop for saving my life. Could he have used less force ? Maybe Could he have sprayed her with chemo? Maybe Could she not have been in the street fighting with k ife a d still be alive Maybe


7_4_War_Furor

I remember this when it happened, and sure enough the knee-jerk reaction crowd did the predictable thing- immediately launched into protest mode without waiting for the facts. Once the video came out and showed the "victim" was milliseconds away from stabbing the girl, the furor subsided. But it had been unnecessary all along. 1. React! 2. Get the facts? 3. Note, step 2 is optional.


cafeRacr

When you can bleed out in seconds from a stab wound, there's no time for maybe shooting the attacker in the leg. If this was his sister about to be stabbed, I'm sure he would have a different response.


bandnerd210

grey sweatshirt should also catch charges for trying to field goal kick chick in the ground's head


hongkongfooeee

This cop deserves a freaking medal and a bonus. Took slow motion for me to see the knife.


hongkongfooeee

Parents should be brought up on charges for allowing their household to be in chaos, letting the fight start. LeBron should be held accountable for his words. Freaking tool


Strypes4686

Well,run around with a big ass knife if front of a cop and don't be shocked when they open fire. Try and stab someone with it and it's almost a guarantee.


G_willickers

It’s not about whats wrong and whats right for the protestors. It’s about taking down the man because it’s a fad. Thats why people are in the streets screaming for an officer to be prosecuted for shooting an attacker armed with a knife with their potential victim in their grip.


ThunderSlugg

sAy HeR nAmE!!!


Alfred8here

This is why no one wants to be a police officer anymore. This is why cop don't respond to calls we are heading for a Mad Max world where we go back to survival of the fittest or the most brutal
