The policeman was going for his taser but in the heat of the moment pulled his handgun by accident. You guys realize this, right? It was a tragic accident to be sure but it is not a racially motivated one. Why did a movie need to be made about this? Do me need to make a movie every time someone is accidentally killed by someone else?
shareIt's not about needing to make a film about a white police officer shooting and killing a black man. Films are about telling stories for learning and reflection. Not that there's much reflection in some of the posts on this board. I could add that there are a good many films that need never be made going by your criterion: Do we need a remake of a film already made? Do we need another super hero action film? Any film that tells a story told once already. And so on.
I give my respect to those who have earned it; to everyone else, I'm civil.share
LOL at the morrons believing a cop's word....
shareCop apologists are disgusting human beings....
Even if it was "an accident" (that's about as likely as....well, it's not likely AT ALL) how f--king incompetent does a cop have to be to take his gun out that is: On the opposite side of his belt-lighter-and different looking and then continue to SHOOT it into someones back? I don't give a flying f--k about adrenaline and fear. You're a f--king cop. It's your JOB to be level-headed in extreme situations. YOU SHOULD BE HELD TO HIGHER STANDARDS BECAUSE OF YOUR JOB. All these people excusing these murdering cops...it makes me wonder how Europe isn't some hellhole considering most patrol cops don't carry guns...
It is not an accident when you pull out a gun and shoot someone in the back -- someone who's lying face down and is handcuffed. Only a moron would mistake a gun for a taser. It's a completely different shape, weight, and feel.

Nobody wants to believe it was an accident because it was a cop who did it, thats what it is. Weather cops do the right or wrong thing they're still looked at in a negative light and everybody knows this.
sharePatrick go sit down, Oscar was not a threat in the position they had him, the taser was unnecessary.
sharei don't care if it was an accident, the cop got 11 months in jail! wtf? he should've been there for at least 7 years
no thought, no reflection, no analysis, no control, no intention, let it settle itself.
"Accident"? You can't be that truly ignorant, right?
shareThere are too many supposed accidents. Blacks need to read up on the Vril or Hitler and the Nazi parties psychological mind state and how there ideas had been obtained centuries before after the fairer skin blacks (whites really are blacks) took over the Black Moorish Kingdoms, Black Jewish Religion and Black Christian Religion. They implemented iconoclasm in which they hid the skeletons in their closet oh I'm sorry I mean their black relatives who were kings,queens, and dukes of England,Spain,Europe etc. They repainted them all white along with the Christian Saints and Jesus. This is a racist police state for blacks not only here but around other parts as well because this devil and it is a devil goes far back to those Dark Ages or code word for when Black People dominanted. In the Vril society it was designed to create a new world in which witchcraft cough science would dominate the world and Christ cough again the anti-Christ or Matreiya would rule or dominate the new age of supposed true enlightenment. Don't you understand? They had to subjugate blacks in order to bring about this new age and make them forget the True God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob. God was always sending prophets and they want you're mouths shut so they can start putting marks of the beast in people and have a field day. Just go and listen and read up on the psychology of how they think. These aren't coincidences.Not all whites are aware but there are those that are and that's why racism is so powerful. They have the true history and we don't.
shareWell good to know that I could "accidentally" shoot someone and possibly get away with it. Maybe I should try that. Doesn't matter if it was an accident (unlikely unless your brain dead), its still murder.

People get killed by accident all the time, and it is not classified as murder. I am suprised you did not know that. The law makes a clear distinction between the two.
If you watch the tragic video of the shooting; it is clear that the shooter gets suprised at the shot himself; as he thought he got his tazegun instead of his gunpowder one.
There are people shooting their friends, wifes and even dogs when out hunting, thinking they are deer; people make some very quick mistakes when handling handguns, even when not under stress.
Yes and most of the time they are charged with manslaughter. I'm sorry but like I said you would have to be brain dead to confuse your taser and your gun especially when the kid was already subdued on the ground. He had more than enough time to check
