    The sad thing is cops are only taught one way to deal with a person with a weapon. Once they see a weapon they're authorized to use deadly force.

    It's a sad situation but it happens a lot.

      I agree. Father in heaven bless this family, and save us all from people who rely on violence to solve situations, unless it's absolutely necessary. Condolences to his family, friends, and us all.

        She obviously had a mental deficiency or had a mental breakdown. Either way she's an old lady and could have easily been disarmed by a full grown man without the use of deadly force. This kind of training is standard across most police forces, obviously america has some catching up to do in that regard.

        Imagine if your mother put down the crack pipe long enough to find herself in this kind of situation, would you be advocating she be shot too?

        This is like debating with North Koreans on Kim Jong Un's legitimacy, your minds are completely manipulated and controlled by the state. Fascism if I've ever seen it.

          That trigger happy cop should be sentenced to life in prison. It seems they kill people casually these days.

          A lady with a knife? Use a baton, even a baseball bat, but not kill her outright. Shoot her in the leg or something. Damn cops.
          No he doesn't deserve to go to jail. His actions are within the legal limitations. If someone pulls out a lethal weapon and attacks a cop, he is allowed to use lethal force to stop them, irrespective or age, gender, or race.

          Now I agree I wouldn't have shot her, I would have just kicked her in the chest or something. She couldn't have been that fast and she fo damn sho would have dropped the knife on her way down.

          But the cop acted lawfully nonetheless and who is to say the old woman ain't a black belt or something. Cops are people too and have the right to defend themselves when threatened.

          But I think people trying to compare this to black folks protests are just being incensitive. Black folk have been shot without brandishing a weapon and without attacking officers, they been shot while trying to comply with cop instructions. Some have been shot while resisting arrest, but then what do you do when you're being harassed by the cop and being arresting for just being black? Did you know that you have thr right to resist an unlawful arrest. Also some these white cops, if not harass, outright provoke black folk and then shoot them when they react to their provocation.

          This is completely different to what happened to this woman. She attacked with a knife, that's just asking to get shot no matter what colour, age, or gender you are.

          PS. Some of these black guys are gang****ers though, hardcore, serious criminals with no compulsion about killing people, innocent or otherwise, cop or otherwise. So it's a tricky situation, some of these cops are prob walking around terrified out their minds, but they chose the job and they been trained for it, so they just gotta do their jobs properly man.

            Does anybody know if his mom had some kind of mental health issues? Sounds strange that cops would shot a middle aged white woman.

                Plant has had a rough life, probably the roughest in boxing right now, my prayers to him and his family.
                Human rights organizations would be all over that cop in my country.
                American police officers are no joke, they kill you without hesitation.

                  So many stories have come out recently where cops have shot and killed people brandishing pipes and knives from 30 feet away. It’s atrocious, and time for an overhaul of this gestapo system.
