Exactly. Always easy to say what someone could or should have done after the fact.
@Pshad54 and others- Please watch this video all the way until the end. It's from a few years ago when anti-police riots were taking place in Phoenix. Listen to the message that is shared a community activist & minister who got to experience first-hand the type of difficult situations & split-second decisions that cops face all the time. It's a message I wish more people would understand and appreciate.
U are so dumb sir ... I agree with her nvr said looting or burning stuff down is right lol u are hilarious
In all of this outrage and protesting, it helps to understand:
1. There was a warrant Jacob Blake's arrest, for charges of third-degree sexual assault, trespassing and disorderly conduct. (One felony and 2 misdemeanors)
2. The police responded to a complaint about Blake. They didn't go looking for someone to shoot.
3. Blake had a knife in his car and told police so.
4. Blake struggled with officers once they arrived, and tried to get to the place where the knife was.
5. The person who filmed the shooting, says he heard officers tell Blake to "Drop the knife".
Seems like me Blake is the one who put himself and his children in danger.
There was a warrant for his arrest
His behavior, WITH KIDS PRESENT, initiated a complaint
He struggled with officers
He went toward a weapon
Blake had ample opportunity to keep himself, and his kids out of harms way, and I don't see how any sane person can argue otherwise.

How about u train the police officers better to make a split second decision and not let people be cops with a coupe of months. Hold them accountable for mistakes they make .... everybody else is held accountable and goes to jail, but never the police officers who “protect and serve”
how about you go be a cop, do it perfectly and be a shining example to others
I just have a problem with you placing ALL of the blame in this situation on the police officer and not Jacob Blake, who had a warrant out for his arrest, was the reason the cops were there in the first place (they received a call about him), chose not to comply with the cops' orders & fought them instead, then potentially went for a weapon that he told them he had. I simply do not understand how you seem to think that zero percent of this was Blake's fault.
I also would like to ask honestly if you would care at all if Blake were White instead of Black? Would it have even made the news outside of Wisconsin? Does it ONLY matter to you because of Blake's race and the race of the officers involved? And do you automatically assume that the officer shot Blake primarily because of his race, and not because of his actions?
So you're saying the police need more funding for more training? I knew you could do it. Good job.
However, not everyone is held accountable unfortunately. This goes for criminals and a very few rogue police.
