A new video, that surfaced on Monday, seems to provide more context to the altercation which led to an officer-involved shooting in Kenosha, Wisconsin, over the weekend, sparking days of unrest.
The video, which first appeared online, shows the conflict between Jacob Blake and Kenosha police officers from a different angle — an angle not visible in the first video, captured by a bystander. Although the new footage does not seem to change the narrative surrounding the incident, it does show that Blake and several of the officers engaged in a struggle before police drew their guns.
Following the events captured here, Blake apparently freed himself from officers and ran to the other side of the SUV. In the previous viral video, Blake can be seen reaching down, through the vehicle’s open driver-side door while an officer pulls on the back of Blake’s shirt. As Blake struggles away from the officer, the officer, who is holding a gun, fires several shots, striking Blake in the back.

According to the audio obtained by Madison365, someone called police to report that Blake was at her home and wasn’t supposed to be, and that he had taken her keys and was refusing to give them back. A dispatcher relayed this message to patrol officers at about 5:11 pm Sunday.
About 30 seconds later, she let patrol officers know that there was “an alert at this address for a 99 for this subject,” apparently to indicate that a warrant had been issued for Blake’s arrest. Court records indicate a warrant was issued on three charges — two misdemeanors and one G-class felony — on July 7. Court records indicate no previous criminal charges in the state of Wisconsin.
About a minute after the initial call, the dispatcher indicated that Blake was leaving the premises, and that the woman who had initially called had hung up.
there should have been a better way to end this, but lets not pretend that Blake was an innocent victim.
Yeah, probably. I remember reading something a long time ago that warning shots were not allowed for some reason. Maybe a warning shot would be misinterpreted and draw return fire.Quote:

I dunno.
how would people react if someone white said they have no confidence in anybody black.
this is what Jacob Blake's father said but reversed. what source should I used for the video.
he is upset, but this is something that shouldn't be said.Quote:
“I don't have confidence in anybody that is white. That is doing an investigation about a black young man that was shot 7 times in his back & haven't come up with an answer or a comment—At this point, it's not welcome."
Yes and they posed no threat. The guys in Idaho pushed their way through state troopers at a government building.Quote:

But in this instance, the response was to back off?

If you shoot a gun in the air, there’s no reasoning as to where the bullet will return. What comes up, must come down. Police/PSAs warn of this like every 4th of July. If you shoot a gun in the air, the bullet could come down and hit a bystander. While it may have prevented what happened, it also may have harmed some innocent kid.Quote:
