Okay then here's one for you:

What gives police officers the right to jump to conclusions and end lives (whether innocent OR guilty) when the defendant is not threatening?
Are you saying a subject with a known criminal past, an active warrant for raping a female, carrying a knife, scuffling with officers, not complying with orders, is not a threat? Because in the case of Jacob Blake, this is what the police have to go on.

We don’t know what was said, did he threaten them verbally?
“I will kill you pigs” Given what we know, a statement as simple as that , and Blake’s actions that followed (not showing his hands, reaching into his for????) in the heat of battle would escalate this to what happened.
