Isn't there a video of him telling the police that he just killed someone and they basically told him to move out of the way? That's an odd bit of dialogue if you ask me.

Hey, I just killed someone. "Can you please move off the road"?

lol if the gun was borrowed, that guy will probably have the book thrown at him too.
yeah, that’s pretty incredible. doesn’t particularly help police image and excited utterance isn’t good for self defense

oh man, if true, I’d hate to be that guy

You’re in Utah, right? Is the stuff going around social media about the white guy firing an assault rifle at police and the police not firing back and managing to arrest him peacefully because they saw his 9 yr old kid hiding nearby true?

There’s a viral post highlighting that in contrast to Blake getting shot going around. Unfortunately the people trying to suggest this is racism entirely, completely miss the possibility that one is just a case of a shitty police officer doing a shit job and the other a case of a good police officer doing a great job.

It doesn’t always end like that.

Yeah. Exactly. It’s unfortunate that people grasp at such incidents to highlight those with the worst endings as a racial discrimination thing. There are definite cases of racism from the police, but that doesn’t mean every single time a black person is shot by the police, it was racism behind it.

i don’t know if it’s race, poor training, or what. there is a distinct inconsistency

this guy was also a criminal, had a gun but never fired yet got toasted. Meanwhile, other guy on meth, endangering child somehow gets lucky and cop of the year shows up

I'd find it hard to believe that 2-3 police vehicles full of police officers driving towards what looks like a kid with an assault rifle holding his hands up and NOT listen to what he is yelling to them.


I doubt he stole the gun. My bet is he borrowed it: a parent, uncle, neighbor, cousin, whoever...they're probably shitting bricks right now. I don't mean like Juve fans before a CL final...I mean real bricks being shit.

I’m pretty sure there’s a video of it, but they may have not been paying attention or listening

Yeah. I’d be on a flight to Mexico

lol not sure what is worse..prison time here, or being a lone white guy that's wanted in the US with a likely bounty since becoming a fugitive in Mexico?
