Quote:Slow motion video of an incident is not the correct way to look at things.

 

Have you ever been shot at?  Ever been attacked?  Ever had to defend yourself against somebody obviously hostile?  Those things don't happen in slow motion and from the comfort of a computer chair.

 

Have you ever actually seen somebody get shot?  Contrary to what you see in the movies, they don't jerk or get blown off their feet, and they don't stay on their feet.  They drop instantly (unless they happen to be drugged up).  The first time that he was shot was when he fell to the ground.

 

Oh really? What is the correct way to look at things?  A blurry FBI video with no sound?  You were loving that video at first.  You had no problem drawing incorrect conclusions right after watching that.  Now that new evidence is presented you want to ignore it.  That makes no sense.

 

This family has a legitimate case for wrongful death.  The cell phone video proves that. If you want to continue to ignore the facts presented in the new video, that's your right.

 

FBI Agents lied. That's a fact. Bullets were being shot when his hands were in the air. That's a fact. The rest is up for debate.

 

You're whole idea about how he would have fallen immediately after getting shot the first time is not true at all. That's pure conjecture. I admit him getting shot (causing him to reach for his side) is also speculation, but its also logical speculation considering when the shooting started.  It's also the exact case lawyers will bring on behalf of the family.  So please save the "this isnt the movies" speech.  No kidding.
