Reply to comment by NckMcC in AG: Police shot and killed teenager allegedly armed with knife in Gilford | New Hampshire Public Radio by ACOdysseybeatsRDR2

The knife. This willful obtuse ignorance is so fucking tiring. Somebody has a knife, called to a domestic. Threatening…any sane person is shooting.

Fuck sake dude let me pull my knife on you and start approaching you and what are you gonna do sit there and let me stab you? Fucking stupid

I don't see anything in the article about him threatening or approaching the officers. How do you know this?

He was tasered and shot. Both clearly felt justified. It’s intuitively obvious. Being willfully stupid isn’t an argument. Had a knife. Responding to a domestic. Yeah the cops just showed the fuck up and was like, meh, die - shot. Shut the fuck up. The knife in itself is threatening. I like how you bypassed by question. Let me approach you with a knife. You gonna just let me stab you? So fucking blatantly stupid this one

No, it’s not aSsUmInG 🥴🥴

It’s inferring. It’s a domestic, guy was brandishing a knife. Both cops clearly felt justified in in using force. Fucking retarded. Let me just approach you with a knife…you just gonna stand there? No. Fucking idiot.

Where did you read that the kid approached the cops with the knife? I only read that he had a knife, there was no mention of specifically what he did with it.

I understand man. You are very smart I bet. You are the same guy who argues guns themselves are threatening merely because it exists. Are you a big r/politics leftist?

Disingenuous bullshit. Answer the question. You gonna let me just stab you? I got a knife. It’s not threatening. You’re just as retarded as the last one

The law says the penalty for holding a knife is death on the spot? Weird.

Right to use deadly force, so yeah. Disingenuous nonsense this one

You can't use deadly force against somebody for HOLDING a knife. You don't have the right to use deadly force against a chef, do you? The article only says he was holding a knife. You're adding your own "facts" to this situation. "He got shot, so he must have deserved it" is the summary of your argument. That's NUTS. Being shot by the police doesn't make you guilty of a crime, and it also doesn't mean that deadly force was appropriate. One of the officers thought that a stun gun was sufficient. Why did the other cop go for deadly force, when the other cop didn't?

🤣🤣 he wasn’t holding a knife, he was holding a knife in relation to a domestic call. It presupposes violence and thus the use of force. Once again, another disingenuous post denying the obvious. Create a red herring and then use red herring for your argument. Asinine.

Why did one cop use a gun and the other a taser? Threat assessment.
