16 year old (according to her mother) 15 year old (according to the all knowing journos) “sweet child” and “honor roll student” gets shot by evil white racist cop because she was unarmed yet lovingly stabbing another girl.

Yea she took lead for trying to stab people. Well deserved for sure.
But, in other people’s mind they say “why not taser her”..... :facepalm:
-
She was a big girl, 220lbs I read.
The image of a cop shooting a teenage girl for the average person that hears the story probably isn't an angry 220lb woman attacking with a knife and not complying with commands to stop.

People always have an image of what the way they think things are. Some people picture a teenager as some skinny little kid like David Hogg and cops as big muscular linebackers. Neither is always true or even likely.

I can't see a knife in this. It looks like just fist fighting at first glance. If she was stabbing people, I can certainly understand why he went to guns.

Can clearly see a knife in her hand and using it to stab or at the very least attempt to stab the other girl with it at 4:56
-
Knife in hand at the 4:55 time stamp, going in for the stab.
As a non leo I say, "good shoot."

In a sane world the headline would have been
"Hero police officer saves life of young girl from attacker"
But we're not living in a sane world.

The bruiser of a female thinks it's a good idea to try and stab someone after the cops arrive. The guy (foster dad?) thinks it's a good idea to kick a downed teenager in the head after the cops arrive, then yell about the cops shooting a teenager attempting to stab a teenager.
-
After browsing a few stories it looks like they are claiming her actions were some form of self defense.
In this current environment, I would suggest any LEO who could be described as white by the media get out of any dept where they are coming into contact with a black community. Let Black communities police themselves.
Let go, give up the White mans burden, it's a lie.
-
Wow, that was some fast acting by the policeman!!! :police:
It looks like the deceased almost got the knife in that other girl.
Odd how the linked article didn't mention that at all. ;/

Teenagers have been having fights including fights involving knives for eons. We do not need police to address these situations by showing up to the scene & using a weapon against one of the teenagers. Y’all need help. I mean that sincerely.

A quote from a Fox News article:
"I’m very upset, I’m hurt. I want answers," Paula Bryant told 10TV.
"My daughter dispatched Columbus police for protection, not to be a homicide today," she added.
I never know what to trust anymore, but this appears to suggest that the girl who was shot is the one who called the cops?

If she called the cops then why didn't she go to them when they showed up instead of going after the other girl?

Gallows humor:
Man, at 5:23 that little purse dog that the lady in pink had been holding is sitting there looking around like "WTF just Happened?" It's expression made me chuckle.

Now watch the other girl go on camera and claim we were just playing and there was no knife and then this white cop showed up and started shooting and that will be the narrative.
-
She was a big girl, 220lbs I read.
The image of a cop shooting a teenage girl for the average person that hears the story probably isn't an angry 220lb woman attacking with a knife and not complying with commands to stop.
She was also a foster child -- which means she had been taken away from the mother who is now publicly crying over the death of her sweet daughter.

Funny how knife fights (even if only one person has a knife) are suddenly these cool things that people - especially teens - do, and there's no reason to stop them, because, like, nobody gets hurt. It's all fun times!

Not that this assailant knew how to handle a knife, and not that I've ever been in a knife fight myself, but reading what experts have written, "There are no winners in a knife fight." I think that I would much rather get into a gunfight than a knife fight. That these idiot progressives are acting like it's a pillow fight is shameful.
-
Watching the video I have to say not only good shoot, but amazing shoot.
That little time to react, innocent target IMMEDIATELY behind the aggressor and only shot the one with the knife? No innocents shot at all?
Well done, officer.

This is in my part of the world. People around work have raised an interesting issue. Ohio now has Stand Your Ground laws. If dead girl was attacked as has been claimed, by other his armed with knives, dead girl has a legal right to use deadly force to protect herself. If accurate, the officer may have shot someone acting in self defense.

My time on the Medic One unit left me with a respect for the carnage that edged weapons can cause. I could make one quick slash across your femoral artery in your groin, and you will probably bleed out before the aid unit arrives.

I have seen two people die from getting stabbed with one of these (https://www.shelllumber.com/chef-craft-21852-knife-paring-assort-hndl.html?feed=Froogle&gclid=CjwKCAjwmv-DBhAMEiwA7xYrd_IqKR_SdvulyUJmH1-6_Kb3qkx5e5ka6NNhjSY6A-N5vgV6CvuwsxoCWxoQAvD_BwE). One was a 17 year old kid and the other was a male victim of domestic abuse. The stabbers slipped the knife blade right between the ribs and popped the left ventricle on both of them. We knew we had a tension pneumothorax before we cracked the chest on them but once we did that and got a river of blood out of the chest we sort of knew what was going on. Between that and just general mayhem a knife can cause to the human body I would be very wary of anyone in a threatening posture with a knife in their hand. Wary enough to have my hand on my pistol type of wary and possibly out of holster wary.

Oh, the idiots on social media are screaming about how the cop murdered this little girl, that she only had a knife, and he could have used a taser, hit her hand with his baton, or (love this one) grabbed her hand. My concerns out of this...
As an armed citizen, these people are the jury pool in the event that I have to shoot an assailant armed with a knife of some kind...
I recognize that right now cops are in the spotlight, but as a white male, so am I. God forbid I have to shoot a black person...
Even with video showing a valid shooting, this officer may face charges because of politics. I won't have the benefit of video...

Freeze frame image from a second before the cop shoots her.

IMO, the lesson cops are taking from this is to less black people kill each other and/or die in the back of the squad car. No one seems to care as long as the cop didn't do it. That said, I think it is largely the media and the usual troublemakers stirring things up.
I heard Tim Pool wishing some of these cities would simple go ahead and abolish police and live with the results.

Wall off a portion of the city, or even the entire city, and provide zero police protection there. Then tell them if they really think police are the problem they can live there otherwise they have to shut the *expletive deleted*ck up.

Ma’Khia Bryant was a 16-year-old baby. She was shot and killed by police yesterday.
This is why no single verdict can deliver justice. Convictions don’t save lives. Convictions don’t end violent policing.
Stop killing us and our babies. Stop.

I finally got to watch the video. The girl who was shot was not attacked. She was unquestionably the aggressor. She's the one who put down the girl who was then kicked in the head by the guy. Meanwhile, she (the dead girl) pulled a knife and went after another girl who hadn't been doing anything but standing next to the car in the driveway. Definitely not a stand-your-ground situation.

If it was an abortion doctor, it would be okay.

Even if it was a stand your ground case, and it's not, still justified. If I call the cops and they show up while I have a gun out in some fashion that looks as if I may use it guess who is getting shot? Plenty of cases of plainclothes cops getting shot or near shot by responding units.

This Lebron James guy is a horse's ass.
ANGER does any of us any good and that includes myself! Gathering all the facts and educating does though! My anger still is here for what happened that lil girl. My sympathy for her family and may justice prevail!
"That lil girl." Putz.
He also posted a photo of the cop and demanded retribution. If the cop is killed, does James get put on trial for 2nd degree murder, 3rd degree murder, and manslaughter?

As a concealed carrier, how many times have we been told to put our gun away or put it down when police arrive? It is something that gets beaten into our heads as proper behavior in a self defense situation. This girl pulled a knife and tried to kill someone right in front of a cop. This is what happens when you pull out a deadly weapon in front of a cop and try to kill someone.

Trying to police "some population of people" is like grabbing a surly German Shepard by the ears.

This reminds me of something my deplorable, white father told me about, some 20 years ago now. He was in the habit of listening to a self-described liberal, with a radio show out of St. Louis. She had objected to something the police did to someone of her particular skin color, and in describing the action, she used the phrase, “the baby’s car.” In other words, a black motorist, probably a criminal, and presumably young (but obviously not that young), had an interaction with law enforcement that had not worked out well for the “baby.”
I hope my dad was not the only one that could grasp the incongruity of the word in that context. Of course, those were much, much more reasonable times.

In the video, there is a black man that is with the knife wielding girl. Just before she turns on the girl in pink, she is attacking another girl.

The slaves were here long before the police, although you're hunting in the right direction. Professional police as we know them began in London in 1829. Not sure what kind of troubles they had with slaves at the time. New York City was (I think) the first American city to follow suit, in the 1840s. Not sure if there were still slaves in NYC at the time, but I'd imagine not so many you'd bring in a completely new government apparatus to deal with them. Ditto for London, after the banning of the slave trade.
It's just a dumb idea all around, from people who insist that race must be central to everything. Some black Americans seem convinced that whites base our every waking moment around them; that we've planned every aspect of our society in relation to them. And white knuckleheads just nod and go along with it.
-
I heard it wasn't true that the dead girl is the one that called the cops, but I haven't seen anything definitive on that.
Quote from an article I read this morning:
The first 911 call came in at 4:32 p.m. The caller, who has not been identified by police, said amid a commotion in the background, "[indistinguishable]...trying to fight us, trying to stab us, trying to put their hands on our grandma. Get here now."
"Trying to stab us". Unless there is more video or more info, there was only one girl with a knife attacking multiple others, which would negate the story that she was the one who called.

Of course if we accept the theories of all her defenders, all the girls had knives, because that's what teens do. ;/

The idea of "police" goes back further than that - here's reference to the Medjay of Egypt's 18th Dynasty, which began about 3500 years ago. They eventually were desert-ranger police.

Amazing. One of the comments said "we should have more sophisticated ways of stopping people, like bean bag rounds or a net...Anyone can just point and shoot."
So much ignorance in that comment alone. First of all, there's some truth to the fact that "anyone can just point and shoot" a gun. That's what is so great about them. Guns ARE the sophisticated way of stopping people. Did this idiot even see the shooter's body-cam footage of the shooting? Two girls right next to each other, and the attacker got stopped instantly, without the gunfire so much as grazing the victim. That's amazing! Until we have phasers with a stun setting, how much more sophisticated can our technology be?
But, no, not anyone can just point and shoot, just like that. These idiots should thank God that cop had the training, the tech, the quick thinking, and the will to shoot that felon in the instant before she stabbed that girl.
Idiots.
One of the idiots talked about how the police should have waited, to get the stabby girl's side of the story. I guess she could have explained why she was stabbing a teenaged girl?

The idea of "police" goes back further than that - here's reference to the Medjay of Egypt's 18th Dynasty, which began about 3500 years ago. They eventually were desert-ranger police.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medjay
https://originalpeople.org/medjay/
The Praetorian Guard in Rome were sort of police or at least did some of those functions. I am sure police existed in various forms before the modern incarnation.

So policing goes back to before Americans invented slavery, in 1776? =D

I think the excuse I'm getting most sick of right now is "shoot 'em in the leg."
I just read an article where idiots Bill Maher and April Ryan were arguing this approach, suggesting the cops need more time at the range. How about you two idiots spending any time at the range to find out how stupid you are? These are two people with large, sheeple audiences. They are one example of idiots with a large, ignorant* audience who spread the same pablum.
* I don't even mean "ignorant" as "stupid" here. I mean that their audience is as ignorant as them of just how difficult and dangerous "shooting the leg" is, but then lap up what the celebrities say as if it's fact. It doesn't even work in the movies:

Remember something awhile back were they had people try to do something like that with I believe airsoft guns and the results were eye opening to them just how silly statements like that are in the real world. It's a bit different when your target is moving and not a piece of paper.

I think what's bothering me the most is the attitude that it's OK to take chances with the life of the girl about to be stabbed. The only thing that seems to matter is keeping the guilty party alive, so she could grow up to be an adult that stabs people.
This really is the perfect case for BLM. They started with the defense of the unarmed heroes, Martin and Brown. "Unarmed" was one of their favorite words. Now we have someone armed, and on video using deadly force against a black minor, and they still defend her. The only thing they would change about this case is to have the intended victim be white. One suspects they may not even care about that, however.

This incident does, however, prove the wisdom of the old saying: "Don't bring a knife to a gun fight."

You got that right. A rifle and body armor or maybe mail also.
Tom Gresham has repeated a line quite often. "If someone invited me to a gun fight, I wouldn't go." The main point being we carry pistols for defense, not because we are headed into a fight.

Don't attack someone right in front of a police officer. Even more important, don't pull out a deadly weapon and attack someone right in front of a police officer. You won't like the outcome.
Honestly, I would have called that common sense, but sense isn't very common these days.

Ma’Khia Bryant. We say her name.
Another Black life stolen. But we refuse to define or remember Ma’Khia by her final moments.
We uplift, celebrate & honor this Black child for what she loved- doing her hair, making Tik Toks, having fun. Just being a teen.
Rest in power, Queen.

In defense of knife fighting:
https://www.nationalreview.com/2021/04/in-defense-of-teenage-knife-fighting/
... where I spent my childhood, Fridays were idyllic: We’d play some football, try a little Super Mario Bros, have a quick knife fight, and then fire up some frozen pizza before bed. And now law enforcement is getting involved? This is political correctness gone mad.
It’s hypocrisy, too. Who among us hasn’t come within a second or two of murdering someone else with a steak knife? My best friend in school, Bobby “The Blade” Simpson, used to throw shivs at the smaller kids in the music room. Did we need the authorities to step in when that happened? No, we did not. As MSNBC’s Joy Reid argued smartly on her show last night, pranks such as these were dealt with by our teachers — just as we all expected they would be. And if something went wrong? Well, that’s why we had substitutes.

"Shoving" a knife...
SHOVING?
WTF is SHOVING?
You mean the dead girl was trying to *expletive deleted*ing STAB the other girl?
Oh, I know, stab is such a brutal word, and it really makes the dead hero look, well, bad.
And something tells me that the deceased could have been sitting on the other woman's corpse hacking its head off with the knife, and the locals still would have been bitching about a cop 'shooting a kid.'
Looks like a pretty damned big kid to me.
-
Why were charges even considered? Just to appease the mob? Looked like an obvious good shoot.

From the second link:
"Ma'Khia's family has long wondered why this officer opted for lethal force even though there should have been other non-deadly options available to deal with this situation," Martin told ABC 6. "We believe that the tragedy that ultimately resulted in Ma'Khia's death started long before she was shot and killed by a Columbus police officer."
Well, :duh: She was in foster care -- which means that her parents had been proven to be unfit to act as parents. Apparently the foster parents didn't do such a wonderful job, either. I think it was terribly insensitive of Tionna Bonner (the other girl) not to take that into account when she volunteered to be stabbed by the young (ahem) "lady."

Classic statement from the shootee's father:
Hammonds also said “the police snuck up” on Ma’Khia and asserted that Ma’Khia was blindsided by the officer. He also indicated that the officer should have used a taser.
“If she had seen the police, she know that hey, this *expletive deleted*it’s over now,” Hammonds said, again according to his BCI interview. “Uh, the, the next go is to jail, or somebody could get hurt. So if she would’ve known it was the police, she woulda never did it.”
Now that's a classic example of real ghetto think -- it's perfectly fine to stab people in the privacy of your own home, just don't do it when the po-po are looking.
If I remember correctly, the video at the time seemed to show this same father trying to interfere with the police officer.
Correction: The father drop kicked the first girl who was stabbed ("shoved"?) by the shootee, he didn't kick the police officer. [I respectfully decline to refer to the shootee as a "victim."]

I wish they would make up their mind.
Back in April their story was her knowing the police officer was there triggered her into trying to stab the other girl
What I posted back in April 2021
___
In case you thought this couldn't get any dumber
Now it's the police office somehow triggered her into wanting to stab the other girls
Joy Reid’s guest argues that people have ‘adultified’ Ma’Khia Bryant and don’t see her humanity because she was a big girl

Ma'Khia Bryant "adultified" herself when she picked up a knife and committed two adult-type crimes of assault with a deadly weapon.
-
"Ma'Khia's family has long wondered why this officer opted for lethal force even though there should have been other non-deadly options available to deal with this situation,"
One has to ask...
Why did Ma'Khia opt for lethal force? She was a big girl, a non-lethal beat down should have been an option.
"Joy Reid’s guest argues that people have ‘adultified’ Ma’Khia Bryant and don’t see her humanity because she was a big girl"
I stopped seeing her humanity the second she picked up a knife and tried to murder someone.

I heard the girl she tried to stab was human, too. And young and black and everything. (Don't know if she was "gifted.") Heck, I bet she was even unarmed. Those are the people you're not allowed to hurt, right? The unarmed type?

And now another stupid take
“The View” co-host Joy Behar insisted that, when the officer saw Bryant moving to stab another girl, he should have shot in the air. The grand jury clearly disagreed and refused to indict officer, Nicholas Reardon. https://t.co/FAyriNlDev

I keep wishing that people like that would be asked, on camera, why they are so cavalier about what might have happened to the unarmed black girl that was about to be stabbed.
