of course it was okay for the police to shoot the guy. they have a tough job, and shouldn't have to live by the same laws as a normal citizen.

That's pretty fucked up. My only question (so far) regarding this is the conflict of testimony in the news article at MSNBC.
-
One witness said that the victim said "You shot me. I have a 4 year old daughter." But it's also said that the bullet ricocheted into his lung and he died instantly. Too many different stories is going to get the cop off the hook...

Everybody, cops included, needs to learn that technology has caught up with their ass. Cell phone cameras be as common as horny 15 year old boys. It don't matter if you get yo story straight or not. Yo ass be on film. THe whole world's watching, muhfugger. ![]()

This is terrible.
But why, why do people confront police?
If a officer says "On the ground!".
Even if you havent done anything, comply to what the officer says.
You could fit the description of a murderer or something and if you start arguing the officer could use deadly force because he thinks you're armed.
Dont argue with a armed police officer!

I can't believe people sit here criticizing police instead of making comments about the animals in that train station. Not that shooting someone is ok when you don't have to but am I the only one that heard those ignorant pieces of shit that created such a volitile situation? Especially Sheniqua with her cell phone taunting them. If one of the cops walked up and shot her in the face I think the world would be a better place for it. You know damn well that if that piece of shit they shot robbed her she'd be the first one telling the police to shoot him.
I'm sorry but I'm far from a racist and wouldn't care if the people in that subway were black or white trash, it's sad that cops who are trying to do their jobs and make the streets safer have to put up with so much bullshit from the same people that will criticize them tomorrow for not doing enough to protect them. How would she like it if someone went to her work and berated her like that? Oh wait that's right, she doesn't work....

they win

next story"
what are you talk'n about? "they" they are us. If you don't want to be in potentially harmful confrontation, leave or comply with what the officers are saying. They are here for “us” remember? Just the same as us only they have the courage to uphold the law and put themselves at risk for safer communities. Here’s something for the simpleminded; if you don't want to get into trouble, stat out of it. You watch too many movies brother.

"An officer identified as Johannes Mehserle shot the 22-year-old on a BART station platform after responding to reports of men fighting on a train. Officers had pulled Grant and a few other men out of the train. The victim was lying face down on the platform when he was shot."

Long raqe snipping is a great way to deal with police officers FROM A SAFE ESCAPABLE DISTANCE. Also most silencers upon reasearching IN A FULL LEGAL RESEARCH TYPE AGENDA FOR MY OWN ACADEMIC PURPSOES and studies can be made relativley cheap AND YOU CAN EASILY FIND WAYS TO MAKE THEM OVER THE INTRENET. THERE ARE POEPLE OUT THERE looking for a few goodmen! Bombs planted in police stations and city halls have worked pretty well in the past. i have heard and learned THESE FACTS upon researching the subject FOR ACADEMIC PURPOSES ONLY. All the COPS ARE doing is fuling the fire OF DEATH SENTANCES ON THEMSELVES. Look they do not care, they could give a fuck less because they think they are unbeatable, they are not!! People will kill them and they are never ever safe from this point on!! THIS POST IS NOT INTENDED TO ENCOURAGE THE HARM OR KILLING OF ANY LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENT. IT IS COMPLETELY INFORMATIVE OF THE RETRUBUTION THAT COULD POSSIBLY OCCUR FROM SUCH BEHAVIOUR WHEN YOU ARE AN OFICER OF THE "LAW".

Oy. All the cop-haters are going to have a field day with this one and they are right in this case. There was absolutely\ly no reason to shoot that guy. Tazer? Okay but not shoot.
I don't know about the training of transit agency cop but this guy was either over-zealous or accidentally pulled the trigger on a gun that shouldn't have been drawn in my opinion.

I know Im always very happy when I am doing my job and lots of people are yelling at me. While I am forced to hold back crazies with a gun.
I hope when Im arrested that they hold me down on the ground handcuff me and then Execute me.
1984 is everyone with a cell phone.
after careful review It appears that guy Was interfering in a police investigation, in a violent way. I wonder if he had a weapon. He was struggling and was acting aggressive. He was not small and week. He does not wear a vest for a living. The man that was shot was not being civilly disobedient.
Although shooting him would not have been my first choice. I would not have ruled it out.

Read the news story. Accidental shooting. It's going to happen sometimes. You can reduce your odds by not being in brawls in trains or doing other things which may draw the attention of police.

"suspect" face down... with a knee in his back...accidental discharge - period. the officer is wrong and knows it but will go into survival mode to keep his butt out of jail.
.... the gun should not have been drawn.
...there were enough officers there to control the situation, evidenced by the officers standing around doing crowd control ( with their back to the scuffle, watching the rest of the people present).
yeah, there were loud mouths present and certainly some disorderly conduct which warranted police action, but not to the degree of deadly physical force.
cops are not perfect - it is a difficult job - but there has to be some sort of accountability for your actions... a man's life was needlessly taken...
I am not a cop basher nor a cop lover... just a retired cop with 20yrs experience in NYPD.

After watching the last two videos of cops shooting people it makes you think maybe England isnt so stupid for not allowing people to have guns.

I agree that the civilians were acting like a bunch of animals but the fact is that one of those cops made a really bad decision to shoot an unarmed man & the other good cops were probably pissed as hell at him for doing it. Don't blame all the cops in that situation...only one of them pulled the trigger & should be brought up on charges.
That being said, we as a society can not allow law enforcement to shoot people that are unarmed....if we do, then the next thing we know some cops will be shooting people for any reason that pisses them off. Too much power corrupts any individual regardless of whether they are viewed as "good" or "bad"...it's just human nature.

You people are REALLY naive. You could have perfectly clear 35mm HD film of a cop shooting a 3 month old baby, and he would be cleared of charges because the baby was resisting arrest and threatened the cops life somehow.

Yeah Thats on the BART here in the Bay area. The Family is suing for 25million. The young man (Oscar Grant) had a 4 year old daughter. Very sad for everyone involved. IMO the Cop has to be brought up on charges. Manslaughter, Murder in the 2nd, Assualt w/a deadly.....SOMETHING!! Imagine the brutality they don't catch on tape ![]()

They releashed another video from another angle by a passenger on the train. It clearly shows the fatal shot.
![]()
I seen the other angle of this incident. Not trying to take anyone side but it looked to me the cop that shot the man seemed surprised when it happened I'm thinking maybe he thought he was holding the taser and triggered the gun instead. I have no idea why Tasers have to look a lot like pistols anyways or even give the cops tasers that are shaped like guns knowing they're carrying guns to begin with. Why not issued them the flat handle ones just so they won't get them confused. But nonetheless shooter and the others were using excessive force and was totally uncall for. The suspects were cooperating and there was no need to act like they were. If the police that shot him knew he had a gun in his hands then he lost self control and acted on impulse and without reflection, fear and anger took control of his actions and voluntary shot the man. If so the cop should be charged with " Voluntary Manslaughter ".

That cop needs to be charged with murder, period.
His gun was in front of him.......he could see what was in his hands. His taser shouldve been on the opposite side of his pistol so he wouldnt make any mistakes....damn mann there were tons of officers there, there are no excuses. I'm surprised the crowds didnt rush those officers after witnessing that murder. A citizen couldve shot that officer for what he did and got off free of charge.

I tell you what.....from a Marine Corps Counter Terrorist Team Member you would never put your finger on that trigger
until you were ready to shoot and if he was wanting to use his taser then it shouldve been on the opposite side of his body so that he could never make that mistake...now a human is dead and that officer should be charged with murder, period. I'm just surprised that more cops werent shot that night for what happened. Talk about revenge killing. They want revenge so watch out Oakland cops. That was uncalled for. They need more discipline if they are gonna carry a gun. I hope he gets whats coming to him.

i love how people are so passionate about fighting racism.... but then make blanket statements like "all cops are assholes". for every "whoops" there are a million ways they kept you alive. some cops are dicks, some cops are not dicks. just like everyone else.

The racist fucking cop could only shoot the kid because he doesn't see black people as people. So havoc72 you are a racist fuck. The guy they shot is clearly on the floor with his hands tied behind his back. tell me: ho dangerous can one be on the floor with their hands behind their back?

You people make me laugh.
Yes, lets just get rid of the police force. Lets have a free for all.
Nobody knows what really happened yet, some say the officer seemed to be in shock after shooting him, others say he meant to kill him.
All I know is, they should use live rounds in riots. No use in riots, just makes you look stupid.
And as for shooting a man in the back, I'm definitely going to wait for the guy to turn around and shoot me. I hope you encounter a situation like that in your life. If I was those cops, I would have been scared as hell in that area, guessing from the dialogue of that crowd...which made me laugh.

Should have just been cuffs, rights, and out into the squad cars. Definitely not by the books. They should all be reprimanded. The on that had his knee on the suspect's neck should be put on probation for improper tactics. The on that shot should lose his badge and be sent to prison.
As a cop, this is shameful to see.

I second Rock 100%. Fuck the police, if I were there I woulda shot 'em right back. It's about time the government thugs get what's coming to them. Keeping the peace and repressing the populace are two different things. Now they want to bring active military into the states to quell civil disobedience and take away the citizens right to bear arms. We're gonna get fucked.
WHERE ARE OUR RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS?
Fuck this shit, let's go to war.

Reality check:
Fact of the matter is, if people were as vigilant in assisting rather than trying to screw the very few people who are actually stepping up to the plate and trying to help and maintain order in the cess-pit that is society, maybe we could pull together and make the world a better place.
Rockshiiit - you've got a maniac outside your house who wants to cut open your head to see how empty and full of hate it really is... Who you gonna call for help ? Your favourite shit-spewing band or a bunch of gun-toting cop killers ?? No you'd call the cops while you were hiding under your bed shitting yourself, praying to whatever anti-christ you worship.

The guys name is Oscar Grant RIP. Im an aspiring police officer and that BART police officer deserves the death penalty. BART is a train that runs throughout the bay area. BART police are NOT municipal, county, state, or federal law enforcement. The BART police should get their POST rights stripped. FUCKEN SECURITY GUARDS AND REAL POLICE REJECTS!!!

The fucked up part about this is that Oscar was not first murder from Bart Police. He's the forth. and if this whole thing is handle like the first 3 cases, there wont be any justice for Oscars family. The first guy was choked to death, the second was shot in the back of his head when he turned and walked away. the third was over-tassed. All were un-armed.
