What The Media Isn't Telling You............

Righto!

[royfromaus]

Ah.........now there's a vid (didn't show up initially and I have seen it)

I've no confidence in the media telling the truth on anything.

[Mamyalynne]

Thread on this last night and yes I have watched a few videos.

While it is true that if Daunte Wright didn't struggle, he would still be alive. However, it is also true that if a 26 year veteran cop could tell her aris from her elbow, Daunte Wright would still be alive.

[grumpy01]

We’ll never know if she meant to taser him and pulled gun by mistake and fired.

[ichkeria]

“Daunte Wright was not a child”

That’s the first I’d heard anyone suggest it.
So then I stopped watching ...

The entire media is lumped together and damned by a vox pop with a video camera.
Not for the first time
Marvellous ...

[royfromaus]

He was a dangerous gun-toting criminal, ...why ignore that bit, ken?

[Ken4155]

He was unarmed at the time of the shooting. Why ignore that bit, Roy?

[david small]

The media is now a corrupt distorted behemoth that is controlled loosely by the internet. Lies and false news proliferate.

He jumped in his car...how would the police know whether that was to drive off or get his gun?
Don't you watch any programs on the police and criminals?

[Ken4155]

Almost every report i have read mention he made as if to drive off. Not one mentions the fact ay of the cops thought he was going for a gun. I know he was wanted, but 'Dead or Alive' warrants went out with Billy The Kid, Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid, et al.
As for watching police procedural progs, i can't get enough of them.

grumpy01: "We’ll never know if she meant to taser him and pulled gun by mistake and fired. " - did you watch the actual video of the incident? it's obvious she thought she was tazering.

[woofgang]

I thought that tazers and guns should not be side by side on the police belt so that a mistake like this cannot be made?

[burlyshirley]

Very good video.

[andy-hughes]

Yet another idiot who thinks a phone and access to the internet makes him some sort of authority on something he didn't see because he wasn't there.

If he wants to self-aggrandise, why can't he sit at home instead of walking down the street talking to himself like a slightly deranged care-in-the-community case?

As to what he said - as usual with all people like this, he is offering his thoughts as though they are facts, which the are not.

Assuming that the police officer 'awoke without a racist thought in her head ...' - and he knows this how exactly?

I am not suggesting for a moment that the officer is a racist, but I don't know, and neither does this fool, I am not offering opinions I am not able to confirm as facts, but he is.

As for his ludicrous opinion that the rioting is a 'narrative' - what utter piffle. Rioting and looting are not carried out by people who want to orchestrate social change, they are carried out by people who like to hit strangers and steal things!

Yet another i-phone numpty who imagines that his view is somehow more important than anyone else's because he can walk and talk at the same time.

Piffle like this is the downside of modern communication.
