BLM riots in a swing state. Must be working for the Trump campaign. Dumb.

You're right. Have a look at the latest Penn polls. The gap is either closed or swung to Trump:

Somehow people will defend the knife waiving and coming towards the police. Either that or "police need better training". Here comes the "defund police" and "spend money on better training" in the same sentence.

But multiple shots at a man carrying a knife, and not a gun? Why not one shot at his leg and he will probably go down. Then disarm him!!

Lol, spoken like someone who has never used a gun before.

Police want to come home to their family too. Dont waive weapons at the police.

A guy brandishing a knife at a distance and you swamp him with bullets?? Are these officers not trained to deal with guns that will not cause fatal injuries?? Well, different story if the guy had a gun and pointed it at the police, but that is really no excuse to unload multiple bullets in the chest, or parts of the body rather than the limbs. Now look at the real mayhem as a result with the riots and real injuries of the police. You have to take the broader picture into perspective!!

Cops are poorly trained. Many are suffering from PTSD, I'll concede that. It shouldn't have happened.

Burning down the city is the answer from these lunatics.

That is the cops pathetic aresponse to justify such killings. These knife threats are a global problem. Take this example in the UK:


This is how the cops in countries like the UK are trained to deal with such issues, and you are really the naive one to buy those excuses.

Here is another example, of an idiot who even threatened the officers:

Wonder why they did not kill this individual, but fired just "foam projectiles", even after he threatened the police officers:

Police: Man arrested after standoff at Berkeley Marina:


Hmmmmmmm!!

Well, because you know that we already covered this in those other threads wrt KR and portland and Minn so let's leave it at that... the refusal to comply and run towards with a weapon has basically warned the criminals repeatedly, so just don't do it.

Read the link you posted. The man arrested in the UK was arrested at home or at least at a house after the incident was over. Circumstances were a lot different than the Philly case. Looks like you googled knife crime then posted a link without actually reading the report

Just to debunk your polls...Trafalgar has a heavy Republican bias and shouldn't be considered fair...Insider Advantage black vs white pollsters was 49-313, hardly a fair representation of the black race that favours Biden nationally by 91%.

Take those two away and Trump is behind all day long.

You are such a altruistic sharp shooter that you would risk your life aiming at a harder-to-hit moving target, like his leg? Easy for you to say sitting in the comfort of your computer desk. Why not show the police some appreciation. They are the people who risk their lives to protect us. What have criminals ever done for our society except terrorize us?

Debunk them all you want. I'm not much of a believer in polls myself, except to show movement.

Here are the polls. Not sure what the AA vote nationally has to do with PA or any other the rust belt. Click the study to see the questions. Trump takes PA easily.
