I wonder how the other girl, the one dodging knife slashes feels about the situation? What a fucked situation all the way around though. A kid is dead and teenage girls are having knife fights in the streets. We’re witnessing the fall of Rome.
 
The girl killed yesterday was reportedly the person who called 911. She said she was being attacked. I refuse to believe a grown man can't get a kitchen knife from a teenage girl without shooting her.

Hitting her hard with a nightstick would have stopped her just as fast. She didn't need to be killed.

Police are trained as if they're fighting in Afghanistan. FBI trainers believe they're at war with the American people, so use the techniques of war.

I disagree. If a cop sees someone about to stab someone else with a knife he/she should be allowed to shoot.

Here's the video. Considering how fast everything happened I don't see how the officer could have gotten the knife from her before she stabbed the other girl.

So who is that?

Yeah that definitely rubbed me the wrong way. He deleted it shortly after due to massive backlash but it sort of gives you an idea of what is going on in this guy's head and heart. Ugly.

Tired of black kids being shot by cops?

Now, the narrative (which may be true, I don't kn0w) is that she was about to stab someone. Is shooting her the only way to stop her? I find that very hard to believe.

When you find yourself in that situation you have a splint second to react. His primary concern was protecting the victim and neutralizing the situation. The idea that it was racially driven is an incredible stretch.

We should all take the 1/10 of a second that the officer had to react as a moment of silence.

Why isn't his primary concern ensuring that NOBODY gets killed? Again, she's a kid. She's not a hardened criminal. He shouldn't even have had his gun out. Knife crime is a bigger deal in the UK than here (because - no guns!) but the cops don't go around shooting people who have knives.

...if you ignore the entire history of this country and the fact that Kyle Rittenhouse WAS CARRYING A FUCKING ASSAULT RIFLE and ACTUALLY KILLED TWO PEOPLE and wasn't shot.

Sure, and if the cop allowed her to stab and possibly kill the other girl then people would screaming that the officer wasn't doing his job and should have intervened. What about the hundreds of white people who are killed by cops every year? Why aren't those analyzed and talked about?

As far as Rittenhouse, while I don't condone the situation, to use him as an equivalent example is pretty dishonest. Whether you agree with him firing or not, the people he shot were threatening and swarming him.

I'm not sure the article you linked applies. A few things stand out that make them very different situations.

"Certainly a Taser is an option that's available to the officers," said Dotson. "But Tasers aren't 100 percent. So you've got an individual with a knife who's moving towards you, not listening to any verbal commands, continues, says, 'shoot me now, kill me now.' Tasers aren't 100 percent. if that Taser misses, that [individual] continues on and hurts an officer...In a lethal situation, they used lethal force."

...

In this video, a man with a large machete is standing outside Buckingham Palace. The police carefully gage their distance, then shoot him with a Taser gun. The confrontation ends almost instantaneously as the man drops the knife when his body begins to convulse:

In this video, a knife wielding man who appears to have serious mental health issues is surrounded by dozens of police officers. He goes after them, but the police avoid danger by (shock) moving out of the way:
