Reports of cops shot in Baton Rouge
Three apparently.
Going to be very interesting to see how Republicans handle this issue.

CLEVELAND, Ohio — Police Union President Steve Loomis says he will ask Ohio’s governor to ban all open carrying of weapons in Cuyahoga County for this week. This comes after the deadly ambush of officers in Baton Rouge and with possible unrest here tied to the Republican National Convention. Loomis said lawyers are putting the request together now and will send it to the governor’s office. Loomis said he is also demanding an end to having officers working solo at intersections as part of the RNC security. He says they are in danger and “at a minimum should be in threes”.

Why on Earth does anyone actually even feel the need to openly carry a semi-automatic rifle like that, let alone within a populated area?
Simply because you have the right to do something doesn't mean you actually have to go and do it.

Unbelievable. He's laying on the ground with his hands in the air, identifying himself. That is textbook the right thing to do in this situation. What was possibly going through the cops head that lead him to pull the trigger? Disgusting story.

Its this moronic behaviour from police that is not helping matters at all.
Absolutely in excusable.

Video Shows Unarmed Black Man Pleading With Arms Raised Before Getting Shot by Police
On Wednesday, WSVN aired a cell phone video reportedly taken moments before caregiver Charles Kinsey was shot by North Miami police. In it, Kinsey, who survived, can be seen lying on the ground with his hands raised, explaining that he and the autistic man he was assisting are unarmed.
“I thought it was a mosquito bite, and when it hit me I had my hands in the air, and I’m thinking I just got shot!” Kinsey told WSVN. “And I’m saying, ‘Sir, why did you shoot me?’ and his words to me were, ‘I don’t know.’”
According to police, officers were dispatched to the scene of the shooting on Monday after getting a 911 call about a man with a gun threatening suicide.
“Arriving officers attempted to negotiate with two men on the scene, one of whom was later identified as suffering from autism,” said North Miami Policein a statement. “At some point during the on-scene negotiation, one of the responding officers discharged his weapon, striking the employee.”
According to WPLG, police later said the autistic man “had something in his hand.” In the video, Kinsey can be heard identifying the object as a toy truck.
After shooting him, Kinsey says police put him in handcuffs.
North Miami Police say the officer who shot Kinsey has been placed on administrative leave, but have not released the officer’s name or said if he will face any charges.

If that was a person in the UK. White. Black. Asian. Dog. Cat.
That police officer would be charged for something as bad as that.
That man was clearly not a threat to himself or the person on the ground next to him.
The US authorities have to ensure they take action on this incident. Its absolutely inexcusable.
Race has nothing to do with the issue in my view. Its about competence.

Yeah, you'd think so, wouldn't ya?
But no. They can taser blind old men, and only have to apologise.

They can shoot unarmed people dead themselves and nothing's done about it.
